Node

Yesterday morning I opened my computer and noticed that I had a Window 10 feature update waiting to be installed. I completed the process and started working on the Rest API that I am creating. I am using Node.js and running my server with Express.js. I booted up the server and immediately got a server error. I had worked on the application the day before and knew that it was running without any problems.

Today I was setting up a new project to use 127.0.0.1:3000 and when I went to run the development server I got an error stating that the port was in use. The strange thing was that I had been using port 3000 about two days previously. I can’t be sure if my PC had been turned off during that period. I have to assume that it hadn’t been turned off.
