Cannot find module 'socket.io' about mqtt-panel

[otrab]

Hi @tringler I think you use bad the mqtt method

check this
https://github.com/mqttjs/MQTT.js/blob/master/examples/client/simple-both.js

whit this I can run ./runner.sh

[fabaff]

Can you try to change

    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:3000/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>

to something like

    <script type="text/javascript" src="js/socket.io.min.js"></script>

[tringler]

Changed to <script type="text/javascript" src="js/socket.io.min.js"></script> in index.html, but running into the same behaviour. How can I test if the module socket.io is accessible by your script?

[tringler]

It has been solved by npm install socket.io --save

It stops now with:

var mqttclient = mqtt.createClient(mqttport, mqttbroker);
                      ^

I changed var mqttclient = mqtt.createClient(mqttport, mqttbroker); to var mqttclient = mqtt.connect(mqttport, mqttbroker);

Take a look at: mqttjs/MQTT.js#247

Now it stops with:

[tringler]

Changed var io = socket.listen(3000); to var io = socket.listen('http://localhost:3000');

Now it stops with:

/etc/mqtt-panel/node_modules/engine.io/lib/server.js:424
  var listeners = server.listeners('request').slice(0);
                         ^

Why is this closed?
Current code as of today does not run, I have the same errors @tringler has.

The current change makes it work for me:
