Can you share a bit more details of what you are trying to do?

hi @U0ETXRFEW

sure

i'm running a luminus project

i added an NREPL_PORT environment variable so that on start up, an nrepl server is started

i am trying to connect calva to that running nrepl server

the port nrepl is listening on is open for my local ip address

Can you connect to it using lein repl :connect <host>:<port> from the terminal?

I'm curious about the error message you get. Can you describe the steps you take to connect?

i was not able to connect with lein repl etc

The steps that I take are 1) run connect to running repl from the command pallet 2) select 'leiningen' option 3) fill in ip and port in form dialog

I see. The message that there is no nrep-port file is not an error, it's information meant to explain why there is no port pre-filled in the connect dialog. Maybe not the best message, especially when the connect fails, but anyway.

If you can't connect using lein, that means there is something wrong with how the nrepl server port is shared. Could be that the server binds it to 127.0.0.1, which is localhost/loopback and only works from the machine. Binding to 0.0.0.0 should work much better.

mmm ok

thank you

How are you starting the server? Leiningen or shadow-cljs command line?

leiningen

Try adding :bind "0.0.0.0" to the map where you give it the nrepl port.

I shut down the instance, but next time I spin one up I'll try this
