I think I did something and broke node. I have tried changing paths, but don't really know what I'm doing and don't want to make the problem worse. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling node all to no avail. Any help or ideas would be great.

Found out I was setting the port twice, once in app.js and once in .bin/www so after commenting one out it now deploys successfully! So i was just being a melon. Hope this helps someone else!
