Hello, I'm having issues using the node debugger. I have installed and uninstalled node a few times using either brew or nvm.

If I run a command like:

node debug fileToTest.js

I get output like so, but no connection is made (everything just hangs):

< Debugger listening on [::]:5858
connecting to 127.0.0.1:5858 ...

This issue is NOT happening in versions 7.x.x but that's not compatible with my code.

As a temporary workaround I seem to be able to use the chrome debugging with the command:

node --inspect --debug-brk fileToTest.js

But I'd prefer to be able to use the regular command, as it's used by other debuggers in IDEs that I want to use (Atom, WebStorm, etc).

Ah, working now. Don't know what was wrong but the magic formula seems to be nvm install then a restart.
