I am in a mind boggling problem, unable to decipher whether or not the way how Windows and Ubuntu manages files had anything to do with socket.io in particular.
I obtained the failed to load resource net::err_file_not_found error when I tried running my Nodejs web application on Windows, however, when I ran it on Ubuntu it went smoothly without a problem. I managed to fix it by changing the src from / to .
Trying to figure out what is the difference in using socket.io dependency in my .html file.
In Ubuntu
<script src="/"></script>In Windows
<script src=""></script>Is it the way how socket.io binds around the port when it's listening to the server? or just from where the OS calls the dependencies from?
I found a piece of information from Socket.IO Real-time Web Application Development, page 56.
...."You might be wondering where the / file comes from, since we neither add it and nor does it exist on the filesystem. This is part of the magic done by io.listen on the server. It creates a handler on the server to serve the socket.io.js script file."
However, it doesn't really specify any details between the differences in OS. Very intriguing.
