I'm following the "Getting Started on Heroku with Node.js" tutorial, and I got to the part where I use "heroku local web" to launch my app. When I try, I get this error message:
[OKAY] Loaded ENV .env File as KEY=VALUE Format 08:54:38 web.1
| (node:4716) [DEP0062] DeprecationWarning: node --debug and node --debug-brk are invalid. Please
use node --inspect or node --inspect-brk instead.
08:54:38 web.1
Exited with exit code 9
I had this issue with Heroku after upgrading to Node 8.8.1. It turned out my Procfile indeed contained the deprecated --debug param:
web: node --debug=5858 index.js
I simply changed this to
web: node --inspect=5858 index.js
And now everything seems to works as expected.
You may be having this issue because like me, you based your project of the Getting Started with Node on Heroku repo, which still uses an older version of Node.
I got the same Error, Seems like the issue is with node version, downgrading Node had fixed the issue.
