Error R10 (Boot timeout) -> Web process failed to bind to $PORT within 60 seconds of launch

[gordillo99]

Hello,

first of all thanks for this. it's awesome and I hope I can use it for my future projects :) I'm having a problem deploying to Heroku. I was wondering if you could help me :/ it seems the port cannot be resolved? I added the deploy.js script and the script instructions on the package.json as you said on your article. Could you please take a look at my server.js file? thanks in advance! (I just started with web dev)

Hi @gordillo99 , yeah, in Heroku go to settings and add a new "config var":

key
NODE_ENV

value
production

That should do it :)

Can any-body advice me the way of handling server changes, with no rerun the server manualy,
and working with routes on it, thanks a lot !!

I had the same error. I changed the port as below, and it works

app.listen(process.env.PORT || 5000);
