Recently I tried to use Strapi.
I want run two Strapi apps in single server. So I tried to change default port number - 1337 to other number (For example 1331) In ./config/server.js file.
But when I tried to run Strapi, it failed. In Terminal below is last message, and I can not access admin page - http://localhost:1331/admin
< Opening the admin panel... >
How can I change port number of Strapi?
You can easily change your .env file located in the root project directory adding this line:
PORT=8082
Then save the file, and run this command in order to refresh up all the things:
npm run build
now you can start your server by running:
npm run develop
You will find option to change the port in config/server.js
Please refer official docs link below fore more information.
https://strapi.io/documentation/v3.x/concepts/configurations.html#server
For Strapi v4, this seem to work, might not be the best way.
config/server.js
module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
host: env("HOST", "0.0.0.0"),
port: 1338,
// port: env.int('PORT', 1337),
app: {
keys: env.array("APP_KEYS"),
},
});
