I have just installed ngrok on my local machine, ran
ngrok http 80
as usual.
However when I try to access port 80
localhost:80
I get this error message
The connection to http://*******.ngrok.io was successfully tunneled to your ngrok client, but the client failed to establish a connection to the local address localhost:80.
I am really unsure why this is occurring, and browsed around stackoverflow, but did not quite understand the answers I read. Hoping to diagnose afresh and build understanding from here.
OS is Mac OS.
Answer
ngrok enables us to connect with http://xxx.ngrok.io with local server. Yup, all you do is just running server such as Apache, nginx or something. It is allowed build-in local server in your language.
sudo apachectl start
ngrok http 80
If you love PHP, you can follow below.
php -S localhost:8080
ngrok http 8080
Good Luck :D
