Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asapach/peerflix-server/issues/13

I have installed peerflix-server following the readme on my server running Ubuntu Server 14.04. But when I run peerflix-server it does nothing; it displays nothing and netstat doesn't show the 9000 port at all. It does not however tell me peerflix-server: command not found, and /usr/local/bin/peerflix-server exists so it has been installed.

I try to connect through the local network, on the physical server and over Internet with port forwarded but every time I get a connection refused error. I have tried reinstalling peerflix-server and restarting my machine, and nothing changed.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Could you please paste the console output in its entirety here? Does peerflix-server exit after you run it, or does it keep running?

(sudouser)@Victor-Server:$ peerflix-server
(sudouser)@Victor-Server:$

Is the only output I get. When i run ps -e, peerflix-server is not present on the list - or is there a better way to see if it keeps running?

How about node and npm versions?
node --version
npm --version
npm ls -g peerflix-server

NPM version is 1.3.10
NPM ls peerflix-server output /usr/local/lib peerflix-server@0.0.14

But when I run node --version it outputs nothing, just like when I run peerflix-server. Could they be related?

EDIT: I installed nodejs-legacy instead, which is able to run peerflix-server without any problem. Thank you for your help!
