Connect server not working with no express app build

[shaekuronen]

Full app with express the default grunt task server is working fine. The no express app build does not throw error, but when opens in browser, the server is not working

Tried updating grunt-contrib-connect, porting in config from projects where connect server is working, setting up new connect task...

[PaulDejardin]

I am having the same issue. @shaekuronen I realize it's been a while, but were you able to figure out what was causing this?

[shaekuronen]

@PaulDejardin Sorry, didn't get resolved and was demoing JS frameworks, so just moved on...
