Development server always start on port 80

[kesonno]

Hi,

maybe I'm missing something, but on my system, with a fresh installation, running watch always try to bind to localhost:80 (I see the debug message [PWA] Starting development server on http://localhost:80.

I tried with pwa watch --port 9090 and with this pwa.config.js in the root of the project:

  config.devServer.port = 9090;
};```

My current setup:

OSX 10.10.5
node v8.11.0
npm 5.6.0

Thanks in advance!

I tried to reproduce this, thought it may be your node version. But I seem to have no issues on 8.11.x either.

I have the same results running pwa directly. The only difference I can tell is I am on macOS 10.13.6.

Also, the code defaults to 8080 for the server port, is this what you meant?

Thanks! Ya I don't have any issues, same OS.

I think that you have a leaky ENV setting @kesonno. Try this instead:

PORT=9090 pwa watch

If that works, then you have a leftover PORT=80 from your previous session or in your PATH.

Thanks!

Thanks @mrbrannan for the check, and @lukeed you was right! I was working on a shell with a previously exported PORT env var, sorry to bother you :(

Not a bother, glad it was that simple!
