Do like this If you want to access PORT variable from process.env you have to use this command to access.
PORT=8081 node server.js
. You are using wrong syntax

In my app, I have the configuration like this:
module.exports = { 'port': process.env.PORT || 8080, 'database': 'mongodb://xxx:[email protected]:13456/practical', 'secret': 'ilovescotchscotchyscotchscotch' };
but at present, I would like to run my app in different PORT number say,
8081
or something else. because I need to run 2 different apps which is configured as same way.what is the correct way? - any one help me?
Thanks in advance.
I tried this answer already : How to change value of process.env.PORT in node.js?
But I am getting this error: ( I am using windows shell )
