Looks like an error with the port. You sure that you don't have an instance already running on the same port?

[ctf0]

nop :(, i double checked for the port number and this one is free

That ip address is a cloud flare ip address.

It's likely cloudflare is getting in the way of your connection in some manner.

i stopped cf, and back to my public ip but nothing changed

Any updates on this? Facing same issue!

[rorymcdaniel]

Just a thought, I had this same issue, I was trying to run laravel-echo-server on my computer, but instead I should have been running it on the Vagrant host. That resolved it for me.

[ctf0]

@rorymcdaniel its working fine on vagrant but on live https server sadly its not :(

[IamSwap]

any updates on this?

[ctf0]

i started using pusher instead but it takes almost 10 seconds on each page load just to connect to the service 😢 .

[ctf0]

@tlaverdure any news over this ?

[markimpmc]

Try to change host to 0.0.0.0.
I've had the same error, but it worked for me.

[tlaverdure]

This works perfectly fine for me with a similar configuration. Only thing that I ran to is that I needed to run the command to start with sudo since the certificate files are located in the etc directory.

kill -9 $(lsof -t -i:PORT)
