Hello.js is now working by changing the script to this script below.
‘use strict’; const http = require(‘http’); var server = http.createServer((req, res) => { res.writeHead(200, {‘Content-type’:‘text/html’}); res.end(‘<h1>Hello NodeJS</h1>’); }).listen(8080, ‘10.133.16.227’);
server.listen(8080,() => console.log(‘Server running on port 10.133.16.227:8080’));
