GET error MEAN App

If you're using the mean stack, you should be able to host both the back end and serve the front end directly with node.

I'm not sure of your project structure but here's the structure for one I'm working on now.

/bin --contains a file called www.js (used to launch app)/data/models/node_modules/public -- contains my angular implementation/routes -- contains express routes/temp/upload/viewsapp.js -- main configuration for expressapi.js -- my apispackage.json

in the /bin/www.js file you have the code to start your node server.

var app = require('../app');app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);var server = app.listen(app.get('port'), function() {debug('Express server listening on port ' + server.address().port);});        

You'll also need to setup express and your routes so well look at routes firstin the routes directory I have a file called index.js

In this file, I define one route that leads to my angular index.html page.

var express = require('express');var router = express.Router();/* GET home page. */router.get('/', function(req, res) {res.redirect('/pages/index.html');});module.exports = router;

And of course you'll need to set up express.

process.env.TMPDIR = 'tmp'; // to avoid the EXDEV rename error, see            http://stackoverflow.com/q/21071303/76173var express = require('express');var path = require('path');var favicon = require('static-favicon');var logger = require('morgan');var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');var bodyParser = require('body-parser');var multer = require('multer');var flow = require('./flow-node.js')('tmp');var multipart = require('connect-multiparty');var multipartMiddleware = multipart();var uuid = require('uuid');var mongoose = require('mongoose');var session = require('express-session');var routes = require('./routes/index');var app = express();app.use(favicon());app.use(logger('dev'));app.use(bodyParser.json());app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded());app.use(cookieParser());app.use(session({genid: function(req) { return uuid.v4()}, secret:   'XXXXXXXXXXX',    saveUninitialized: true,    resave: true}));app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));app.use('/', routes);app.use('/users', users);module.exports = app;

Now assuming you have your Angular files and javascript in the 'public' directory somewhere, you should be able to start up Node with the following command.

node bin/www

And the point your browser at http://localhost:3000 and be in business.

Hope this helps and happy learning.
