Question

I have this error: ``` TypeError: object is not a function at Object.CALL_NON_FUNCTION (native) ``` For this line: ``` var app=express(); ``` I tryed to install express/connect again, but.. nothing. Thanks! EDIT I'm express 2.5.8. my code: error: ``` var http=require('http'); var app=express(); var server=http.createServer(app); ``` (i forget why i need to use this code, i think for cookie handshake works. I have resole the probleme (hanskake cookie) editing manager.js, so i dont need to use this code. But can be interesting to understand why no works (and why i wanted to use)). no error: `var app=express.createServer();`

Accepted Answer

You have the wrong express version. You can only create the server with `express()` in v3.x.x. Before this version, express can not be called as a Function. Try either changing your code to create the app the old way or try updating express.
