Nightwatch.js won't get URL on server OS - node.js

Question

I have a test that works fine on my machine, but I'm running into problems when I try to move it to the server OS (Windows Server 2008 specifically). All the test really needs to do is load up each URL from a file. When I run it on the server os, it only loads a blank page. But I know it's reading the file, because I can console.log out the list of URLs, and also if my file has 5 lines, it will say 5 tests failed.
A different test I tried which doesn't read from a file, which is just given an array of a few URLs to read through works fine, by the way
Any idea what's going on? Here is my code:
var fs = require('fs');
var i = 0;
var errorlog = "";
module.exports = {
'Person Page Test w/ txt file' : function (browser) {
//iterates through excel sheet testing each URL
fs.readFileSync('PersonPageUrls.txt').toString().split('\n').forEach(function (line) {
var url = line;
i++;
console.log(url);
browser
.url(url)
.saveScreenshot('tests/PersonPage/screenshots/PersonPage' + i + '.png')
.waitForElementVisible('button[class=Person__readMoreButton___28toI]', 3000, false, function(result) {
if (!result.value) {
//if test fails, add to error log string
browser.url(function(currentUrl){
console.log();
errorlog = errorlog + "Test fail on: " + currentUrl.value + "\r\n";
});
}
});
});
browser.end()
}
};
and my nightwatch.json
{
"src_folders" : ["tests"],
"output_folder" : "reports",
"custom_commands_path" : "",
"custom_assertions_path" : "",
"page_objects_path" : "",

}
},

"launch_url" : "http://localhost",
"selenium_port" : 4444,
"selenium_host" : "localhost",
"silent": true,

"enabled" : true,
"on_failure" : true,

"on_success" : true,
"path" : ""
},
"desiredCapabilities": {

"javascriptEnabled": true,
"acceptSslCerts": true
}
},
"chrome" : {
"desiredCapabilities": {
"browserName": "firefox",
"javascriptEnabled": true,
"acceptSslCerts": true
}
}
}
}
Heres the output I get (running on a 2 line text file) (if it isn't obvious, I replaced the real URLs it prints with ~~~~. But it does print the urls):
