Well for the first example, the error tells you exactly what's wrong. Why not look at some of the documented examples to see how you're supposed to use Node modules?

[juneym]

Thanks OrangeDog! I didn't noticed the missing require

The following works:

var http = require('http');
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
  res.end('Hello World\n');
}).listen(1337, "127.0.0.1");
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/');

However, I am worried about the error when running "make test simple" .. to me they all look RED.

Don't care, libuv backend is still under development.
