Chrome can't open localhost:3000 with Gulp / BrowserSync
For some reason, no matter what I try, Google Chrome never seems to be able to display http://localhost:3000 (or any other specified port number for that matter) when starting up a server with BrowserSync through Gulp. Navigating to the same URI in Firefox, shows that it works and that BrowserSync is connected . gulp.task('browser-sync', function() { browserSync.init({ server: { baseDir: './' }, port: 8080 }); }); I'm specifying port 8080 above as an alternative , but even using the default 3000 does not work in Chrome. Firefox seems to be able to work with either. I've been to: chrome://net
