Hi Steevej, so i replaced the localhost in connection string with 127.0.0.1. Here’s the code for server.js file which I am trying to run in cmd using ‘npm start’

const express = require('express');
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const cors = require('cors');

const app = express();
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 5000;

app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());

mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:127.0.0.1/ai-real-estate-friend');

const connection = mongoose.connection;
connection.once('open', () => {
  console.log('MongoDB database connection established successfully');
});

app.listen(PORT, () => {
  console.log(`Server is running on port: ${PORT}`);
});

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, 'client/build', 'index.html'));
});

const listingSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  title: String,
  description: String,
  address: String,
  city: String,
  state: String,
  zip: String,
  price: Number,
  image: String
});

const Listing = mongoose.model('Listing', listingSchema);

app.get('/api', async (req, res) => {
  try {
    const listings = await Listing.find();
    res.json(listings);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    res.status(500).send('Server error');
  }
});
