json - Node events.js:167 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

Question

I'm trying to use JSON Server in a React App. However, I keep getting the following error.

events.js:167
  throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
  ^
Emitted 'error' event at:
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.doListen [as callback] (net.js:1498:12)
at GetAddrInfoReqWrap.onlookup [as oncomplete] (dns.js:50:17)

I've upgraded npm and node to the latest versions. I've killed all processes with killall node and sudo killall -9 node

Any ideas what may be causing the issue?

Answer 1

I had the same issue I ran killall node then npm start after that my local server at port 5000 worked again. Hope that helps you.
