javascript - Why does my Node.js script not see any UDP packets that are being sent on a specific port? -


i have c# app sends udp packets specific ip , port , works well, because have other app receives packages. send them can display on webpage - i've read node.js fit here.

i installed current version of node.js under windows environment , took following code:

var port            = 19777; var multicast_group = "224.0.0.251";  var dgram = require("dgram");  var client = dgram.createsocket("udp4");  client.on("message", function(message, rinfo) {     console.log("received: ",message,rinfo); }); client.on("listening", function() {     console.log("listening on ",client.address());      client.setbroadcast(true);     client.setttl(64);     client.setmulticastttl(64);     client.setmulticastloopback(true);     client.addmembership(multicast_group);     client.send(payload, 0, payload.length, port, multicast_group, function(err,bytes) {         console.log("err: "+err+" bytes: "+bytes);         // client.close();     }); }); client.on("close", function() {     console.log("closed"); }); client.on("error", function(err) {     console.log("error: ",err); }); client.bind(19777); 

and started sending packets on following ip "224.0.0.251" , port 19777 c# app - however, after runnint client app i've got following error:

c:\users\user\desktop>node client.js error:  { [error: bind eaddrinuse] code: 'eaddrinuse', errno: 'eaddrinuse', sysc all: 'bind' } 

what doing wrong? , - after fixing issue - able see packets in console? thanks.

------------- edit:

following advice of john, modified app node.js listening on port. made progress , on output of console get:

c:\users\user\desktop>node client.js listening on  { address: '0.0.0.0', family: 'ipv4', port: 19777 } c:\users\user\desktop\client.js:19     client.send(payload, 0, payload.length, port, multicast_group, function(er                 ^ referenceerror: payload not defined     @ socket.<anonymous> (c:\users\godyckim\desktop\client.js:19:17)     @ socket.emit (events.js:104:17)     @ startlistening (dgram.js:139:10)     @ dgram.js:230:7     @ dns.js:85:18     @ process._tickcallback (node.js:355:11)     @ function.module.runmain (module.js:503:11)     @ startup (node.js:129:16)     @ node.js:814:3 

but still no packets visible.. ok, see didn't define payload variable... want achieve receive packets sent udp , either display in node.js console (that start me), or transfer further can see them in browser. in second case - i'm doing wrong now? thanks!
