I have the following file:
var express = require('express'),
http = require('http'),
app = express(),
httpServer = http.createServer(app);
app.configure(function () {
app.set('port', 3000);
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
});
httpServer.listen(app.get('port'), function () {
console.log("Express server listening on port %s.", httpServer.address().port);
});
However this gives the follow errors:
C:\var\www\stage.mayfieldafc.com>nodemon http.js

After installing both nodemon and express and I can see both folders inside of node_modules
Also when console logging the return of express I see that it has correctly loaded the module.
How can I verify my node install? Or better still fix it.
Express 4 no longer has app.configure(). See the wiki on migrating from Express 3 to Express 4.
The method app.configure has been removed from express 4. So now you have to say something like bellow.
app.set('port', 3000);
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
instead of
app.configure(function () {
app.set('port', 3000);
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
});
and there are many other changes has been made.
