I'm watching some tutorials on youtube, how to make a real time chat with node.js from phpacademy [this video] channel. Now I'm in the step where I should run my server.js file in console. I'm running it in console with command node server.js When I run it, nothing happens, just a whitespace. It should output a message like "info - socket.io started". It works when I change the script to something like "console.log("worked");". Click here for an image. [LINK] MongoDB is running perfectly and had no errors till now. Any suggestions?

Here is the server.js code : var mongo = require('mongodb').MongoClient, client = require('socket.io').listen(8080).sockets; Here is the response on cmd when running it using debug: C:\Users\User Name\Desktop\chat>node debug server.js < debugger listening on port 5858 connecting... ok break in C:\Users\User Name\Desktop\chat\server.js:1 1 var mongo = require('mongodb').MongoClient, 2 client = require('socket.io').listen(8080).sockets; 3 debug> There is no result/response when not using debug. I am trying the nodejs chat implementation as shown here: [this video] Expected response: socket.io started Let me know if you need any other details.
