I am working with a virtualbox set up with vagrant/puphpet (ubuntu 12.04). I set up grunt and contrib-watch successfully. I installed the chrome extension ... everything as specified here : https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-watch#live-reloading

My Gruntfile is as follow :

module.exports = function(grunt)
{

require('load-grunt-tasks')(grunt);

grunt.initConfig({
  compass: {                  // Task
    dist: {                   // Target
      options: {              // Target options
        sassDir:        'sass',
        cssDir:         'css',
        environment:    'development',
        httpPath:       '/',
        imagesDir:      'img',
        relativeAssets:  true
      }
    }
  },
watch: {
    options: { livereload: true },
    sass: {
        files: ['sass/**/*.scss'],
        tasks: ['compass'],
        options: { spawn: false }
    }
}
});

grunt.registerTask('default', ['compass']);
}

I run command "grunt watch" and it processes my sass right. But in Chrome's console I get the following error :

GET http://127.0.0.1:35729/livereload.js?ext=Chrome&extver=2.0.9
net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED  injected.js:116

If I add the script manualy in my view I still get the error :

GET http://localhost:35729/livereload.js net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Any idea where this error could come from and why it's not loading the script ?

Your gruntfile looks alright.

It looks like your virtual machine refuses the connection. Make sure the live reload port is open in iptables.

In Ubuntu, that can be done simply with ufw:

sudo apt-get install ufw
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow 35729/tcp

  • Amazing ! That solved my problem... For other people, I should mention that I used puPHPet to create my virtualbox, I defined a different IP for my machine (192.168.100.100) ... So http://localhost:35729/livereload.js doesn't work, but ttp://192.168.100.100:35729/livereload.js does – JohnWolf Sep 25 '14 at 10:38

    Glad I could help. If you're using Chrome, have a look at the extension called Rearm. – Michel Sep 25 '14 at 13:51

    Careful with this, it locked me out of my vagrant box, now ssh times out, and the box can't be reloaded anymore. – orszaczky Jun 23 '15 at 12:34
