Error: listen EADDRINUSE :::8080

at Server.listen (net.js:1376:9)….
Solution:-
From above error we can get an hint “listen EADDRINUSE :::8080”,
issue is our port 8080 is already used, thus vue server is NOT getting started.
Easy solution, just change the port in /config/index.js file
dev: {
env: require(‘./dev.env’),
port: 8082,
autoOpenBrowser: true,
Re-run the app again and it’ll launch without any error on new port
