Node.js Socket.io wrong path - node.js

Question

I'm experimenting this issue at game.html
GET http://localhost/socket.io/socket.io.js 404 (Not Found) game.html:1
Uncaught ReferenceError: io is not defined game.html:3
My game.html file
<script src="/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost/game.html');
socket.on('news', function (data) {
console.log(data);
socket.emit('my other event', { my: 'data' });
});
</script>
And my server.js
var app = require('http').createServer(handler)
, io = require('socket.io').listen(app)
, fs = require('fs')
app.listen(5667);
function handler (req, res) {
fs.readFile(__dirname + '/game.html',
function (err, data) {
if (err) {
res.writeHead(500);
return res.end('Error loading index.html');
}
res.writeHead(200);
res.end(data);
});
}
io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
socket.emit('news', { hello: 'world' });
});
It was working fine when I was using index.html instead of game.html

Answer 1

It looks like you're not retrieving game.html from the Node app, because the socket.io.js file seems to be retrieved from an HTTP port running on port 80 whereas your Node app is running on port 5667.
Also, your client-side connection string is incorrect:
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost/game.html');
That also tries to contact a server on port 80 (and I don't know what game.html is doing there).
So try this:
change the client-side connection string to var socket = io.connect();
start your Node app
open http://localhost:5667/ in your browser
And see if that works better.
