BUG REPORT INFORMATION

- Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
Bug

- What is the current behavior?
When I launch a live server with Netlify dev --live everything seems to work fine but when I go to the Netlify URL nothing is displayed.

- If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.
1- Launch a Netlify dev --live server
2- Use the generated URL
3- Nothing is displayed
4- Go on localhost:3000 everything works perfectly.

- What is the expected behavior?
Get a copy of my local environment and use the generated link to share with other developers. With that, they will be able to see what is in my local environment.

- Please mention your node.js, and operating system version.
Node v12.1.0
Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6
Netlify-cli/2.11.31

Thanks for reporting @kriscard. I've just moved this issue to Netlify CLI repo, since the netlify-dev-plugin was merged into the CLI repo.
We're received reports about this problem from other users as well. We're looking into this, please hold on.

Thank you for your answer!

Hi,
Is there any news or advancement on this issue, please?

Thanks in advance,

I'm seeing an issue with netlify dev --live as well where the dev server exits with this message:

FATA[0030] can not connect with server                   error="context deadline exceeded"

The Nelify dev server works normally when the live flag is ommitted so this appears to be an issue specific to the live feature.

I'm seeing an issue with netlify dev --live as well but perhaps for different reasons. When I run that command, it doesn't even output a URL:

I'm getting this same issue @samajammin

Any updates on this? When I run netlify dev, I'm getting error while proxying request: socket hang up (not randomly, on every call), and I wonder if it's related to this --live issue.

(with Vue CLI)
