Questions and discussions about using the Shopify CLI and Shopify-built libraries.
Hello,
I'm having a problem with using the command "shopify node serve". I followed the quick start guided: https://shopify.dev/apps/getting-started/create
Unfortunately, my McAfee Antivirus uses port 8081 and will not let me use that port.
I tried changing the port in the server.js file but the ngrok tunnel that is created when executing "shopify node serve" command always uses to use port 8081 for the ngrok tunnel. I also tried setting the port via the .env with no luck.
Is there a way to set the port number to another number when using "shopify node serve" command?
Thank you for your time
Solved! Go to the solution
This is an accepted solution.
Just in case you want to change the port number its in shopify-cli file in the tunnel.rb file (C:\Ruby30-x64\lib\ruby\gems\3.0.0\gems\shopify-cli-2.1.0\lib\shopify-cli\tunnel.rb). Close to the top is a variable for port change that one to change the port.
I found out how to change the port number.
We can close this one.

You just need to add --port parameter to your command
shopify app serve --port 3000
Hope to help.
