connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:80

Hi Guys, Thanks for making so awesome NExT.js

I am facing this issue connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:80

My server.js file looks like this -

import http from 'http'
import express from 'express'
import morgan from 'morgan'
import bodyParser from 'body-parser'
import connect from './db'
import schedule from 'node-schedule'
import apiRoutes from './api/routes/index'
import next from 'next'
import dotenv from 'dotenv'

import { saveMeetupData } from './api/scripts/meetupData'

dotenv.config()

const port = process.env.PORT
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV
const dev = env !== 'production'
const app = next({ dev })
const handle = app.getRequestHandler()

connect() //MongoDB connect

app
  .prepare()
  .then(() => {
    const server = express()
    server.use(morgan('dev')) //Logger

    server.use(
      bodyParser.urlencoded({
        extended: true
      })
    )

    schedule.scheduleJob('*/5 * * * *', function() {
      saveMeetupData('https://api.meetup.com/ReactJS-Bangalore/events')
      saveMeetupData(
        'https://api.meetup.com/ReactJS-Bangalore/events?status=past'
      )
      console.log('Ran the scheduler')
    })

    server.use(bodyParser.json())

    server.use((req, res, next) => {
      res.set('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*')
      res.set('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'POST,GET,OPTIONS,PUT,DELETE')
      res.set('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'Content-Type,Accept')
      res.set('Access-Control-Expose-Headers', 'X-Total-Count')
      res.set('X-Total-Count', '10')
      next()
    })

    server.use('/api', apiRoutes)

    server.get('/jobs/:id', (req, res) => {
      return app.render(req, res, '/jobdetail', req.params)
    })

    server.get('/resources/:item', (req, res) => {
      return app.render(req, res, '/resourcedetail', req.params)
    })

    server.get('*', (req, res) => {
      return handle(req, res)
    })
    server.listen(port, err => {
      if (err) throw err
      console.log(`> Ready on http://localhost:${port}`)
    })
  })
  .catch(err => {
    console.log('An error occurred, unable to start the server')
    console.log(err)
  })

export default app

Any help would be highly appreciated

Not sure in which context you're getting the error. But if you're doing PORT=80 node server.js you'll need sudo rights, since you can't bind to 80 without them.

@timneutkens My script looks like this

  "scripts": {
    "server": "nodemon -w server --exec \"babel-node server --presets es2015,stage-0\"",
    "build": "next build",
    "start": "NODE_ENV=production nodemon -w server --exec \"babel-node server --presets es2015,stage-0\"",
    "deploy": "now --public"
  }

port is not defined, so it will never bind to any port. Try adding a default:
const port = process.env.PORT || 3000

I tried but still getting the same error @timneutkens

Still not sure where you get the error 🤔please provide a screenshot.

I saw this too. But in my case was a silly mistake. So basically I was calling axios.get on a componentWillMount method. But only using a /api/.... part. Of course, this in the server context will resolve to a request to the default host:port 127.0.0.1:80. Changing the method from componentWillMount to componentDidMount solved the problem. Hope it helps.
