In case anyone is having issues running the server w/ npm start..

Within bin/www, I needed to change the code on line 29 to specify an IP address.

server.listen(port, '0.0.0.0');

After I did this, I was able to view the project at localhost:3000. I'm actually not entirely sure why this happens but I ran into this issue before on another express project. I hope it helps someone in the future!

Hi there, I changed the code for the port but I am still having error with npm start.

PS C:\Users\marni\project-files\1- Introducing the Project> npm start

The issue is you are not running it from the correct folder. I had the same issue

from the top folder, type :

cd 1-Introducing-the-Project/using-sequelize-orm-with-express/

npm install

npm start
