It may sound weird but... does this problem occur on a different machine? I'm asking because it looks like for some reason the
8080port is being used for the login request which is wrong. That's why I'm wondering if you havePORTenvironment variable set on your system (or it gets overridden) and it's being used instead of the correct port number that should be set for your CLI version (automatically, no user intervention required).goodfellastech priority commented 3 years ago
I will try that today. I’m using Amazon C9 so I don’t set the port requests for the CLI. I will try that and let you know.

Same error on local install on 2 machines. For some reason right now using the commands "npm install -g mdb-cli" and then "mdb login" us automatically triggering a request to that port.
I have not touched any settings on my end as my outbound app.js file port is using default process.ENV.PORT variables on all instances to allow it use whatever port is necessary for requests.

Update: I was able to log in on a MacBook pro after reinstalling nodeJS and forcing the install using "sudo npm install mdb-cli -g".
I have had no such luck using Amazon AWS servers C9 application. Any idea there as I think the block might be from their server settings.

So am I reading correctly in the fine print at the end of instructions that there is no way this is going to work for AWS C9 EC2 instances? This must be installed directly on a computer and can not be run remotely? This is disappointing, as I have several projects that I can not use this new CLI on because of this.

@goodfellastech I must admit we haven't think about such use-cases when testing MDB CLI. However, I think you can override the
PORTvariable just for themdbcommand using this command:PORT=3033 mdb login. This should set the correct port number for MDB CLI. Please note that you need to use thePORT=3033prefix each time in that case. Maybe you could create an alias such asalias mdbcli="PORT=3033 mdb"and then use it like this:mdbcli login. Let me know if that helps
