ENOENT when running on windows

[Pomax]

after cloning, renaming to lightroom-catalog-helper, and running npm install, running npm start on Windows 10 x64 leads to the following error:

C:\Users\Pomax\Documents\Git\projects\lightroom-catalog-helper>npm start

> electron-with-server-example@1.0.0 start C:\Users\Pomax\Documents\Git\projects\lightroom-catalog-helper
> electron .

I don't actually know what to make of this error - the actual electron app and server window start up "just fine" from what I can tell, and the factorial/phone buttons work.

Sorry for the delay, haven't been checking github!

This is from findOpenSocket: https://github.com/jlongster/electron-with-server-example/blob/master/find-open-socket.js. It works by trying to connect to an existing socket to "probe" it. If there's nothing running there, it knows it's free.

I fixed in Actual long ago, and just copied over the relevant fix here: 7afdab9
