Error when trying to run exp publish

Expo SDK

Hi there,

I’m having an issue when running exp publish:

mike ~/P/z/J/jog> exp publish

Not entirely sure what’s happening here - what’s supposed to be at port 3000?

Cheers

Do you have an EXPO_LOCAL env var set? Not sure why else it’d try to use port 3000.

Sorry for the delay in coming back to this - I used XDE in the meantime which works fine, but now that I’m at the point where I need to build a standalone version of my app for the Play Store I’ve hit this problem again. It should be targeting port 19001 right?

I do not have EXPO_LOCAL set - if I set EXPO_LOCAL to localhost:19001 it has no effect either - doesn’t seem to be using that environment variable.

Aha - the offending environment variable was SERVER_URL

5

Ah ok. I didn’t realize we read that. I’ll add a task to prefix that with EXPO.

I’m having this problem too

Publishing…

Failed to publish package: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:19001

This worked before. I do not have SERVER_URL set in my shell environment.

Could this be related to app.json:

{

Hi Isiden, I have completely the same problem. Did you solve it somehow?

run exp start first then exp publish.

In my case, I have a VPN app on my phone that makes it communicate all IP traffic through a private VPN I subscribed to prevent snooping. Naturally, it couldn’t find my local computer until I disabled the VPN app.

If your phone is connected to your local Wifi ok, then check all your local LAN settings. Make sure your local Wi-fi router is not blocking traffic to or from your phone and that you aren’t running any firewall software on your development machine (like iptables) that might block some traffic. If you do, you’ll have to disable it or configure it to open the port 19001 and possibly other ports (I can’t remember now).

If your computer has it’s own wifi interface, then find your computer’s IP on the Wifi interface (I use ifconfig) and get Expo to publish over that without having to go through your wifi router. I didn’t need to do that, because my computer I use for development is connected directly to my router through a cable, but it might be good to know what the alternatives are.

HI lsiden
i am new to react native and expo.
i have the same problem

so please tell me what i am doing wrong?

also i am using windows 10 and internet is through datacard(huwai) so is there any lan setting disturbed? please tell me sir!

I don’t think your phone can access 127.0.0.1. That’s the IP address of the loopback interface on your dev machine. It needs the actual IP address assigned to your machine on your local network, like 192.168.1.xxx.

Try removing the .expo directory from the project root. It worked for me.
