Node.js Expres.js Heroku Toolbelt >Foreman Start - Error: write EINVAL

Question

This is the error I encountered with package.json when running foreman start with Heroku Toolbelt for Node.js

 \"dependencies\": 
{
    \"express\": \"~4.4.0         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issues as Jek. I was using express 4.4.4. I downgraded express 3.2.6 and it worked, but I shouldn't be forced to use an older version of express just because foreman doesn't support it.

I tried node-foreman. And it worked for me. I followed the instructions that included these steps:

1. npm install -g foreman
2. nf start

I would like to know if anyone has additional suggestions.
