Node inspect wait for port to be free

I use node inspect on my js.file but always get:

Timeout (2000) waiting for 127.0.0.1:9229 to be free

I've tried this solution https://github.com/nodejs/node-inspect/issues/48, but had no success. I use only CLI, it's cmder for Windows, if that matters. Node version is v10.16.3. I've ran

netstat -ano | findstr :9229

to find out how's keeping the port busy nd kill it by PID, but got no results. Any suggestions?

Solution

  • The problem you are facing has been fixed in the node-inspect package, but this fix has not yet been added to your version of Node.js. Then, to solve this problem, you can use the node-inspect package separately. First you need to install it:

    npm i -g node-inspect

    After that you can use this module:

    node-inspect app.js

    Hope this solution helps you.
