Django & node.js : throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event

Question

Django & node.js : throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event

I am giving a try to the Django socket.io and node.js example by Realtime Django

when I am trying to send the message from a browser I am getting the error from node server that is

events.js:71
        throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event
                       ^
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED
    at errnoException (net.js:770:11)
    at Object.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:761:19)

Since I started with node.js and socket.io I am not able to figure out this error.

Please tell me what might I am doing wrong.

Also some suggest some working example of django, node.js and socket.io if possible.

django
node.js
socket.io

Answer 1

the example uses redis as database backend, and the node redis-client. do you have installed the redis database? it looks like this is the problem.

if you have, the redis-client module provides an optional option param where you can define host, port etc... in your createClient (if you dont have installed redis the standard way):

var sub = redis.createClient(...maybe put an options object here...);
