Also since this listens on port 80 by default it has to be run with sudo (Not mentioned in the readme)

ugly solution is remove $/HOME/node_modules and link with ln -s /usr/lib/node_modules $HOME/node_modules

for change the port, you need change the 80 in the line https://github.com/meetpatty/HENkaku-webserver/blob/master/HENkaku-webservice.js#L138 with the port desired
