Server is started at 5500 but failed to open in Browser Preview. Got Browser Preview extension installed?

step 1- open vs code go to extension (ctrl+shift+x) then search live server then go to live server manage / extension setting then + Edit in setting.json
step 2- "liveServer.settings.useBrowserPreview": true, [ if u see that line u need to replace true to false ]. "liveServer.settings.useBrowserPreview": false,
your problem is solved! enjoy vs code :)

This is what i see when i click this the go live option in the bottom bar. However it doesn't trigger the browser preview. Is there a setting i need to add in my json file? What should the jSON file look like for it to work? Please help thanks

Same problem here too. Please provide some solution!

Yep! I've just noticed that it is not working in linux but no such issue in Windows.

Btw, Thanks a lot for report on GitHub repo. :)

[matt-zhrani]

You are very welcome.
So I updated my installation after you pushed the fix.
This time I am getting this error message: "Server is started at 5500 but failed to open browser. See error on console."

[ritwickdey]

Okay. Let me check.
One workaround : set liveServer.settings.CustomBrowser: chrome .

let me know that after doing so, are you still facing the issue?

[matt-zhrani]

It works well now!
Thank you for your quick help

[ritwickdey]

Please remove liveServer.settings.CustomBrowser: chrome and Try v1.6.11. Hope it will open system's default browser without giving any error.

Let me know if it works for you or not.

Try starting server at port 80 by that you don't have to type the port number

go to browser and type localhost:5500

go to browser and type localhost:5500

So i should change the port mannually from 5500 to 80 ? Or is there any technical procedure.

There may be other way but I am telling you the easy way to save time 1. change port to 80 OR 2. type localhost:5500 on your browser search bar
