fresh install dev server permission error

[adrianthewriter]

I made a fresh install of vite using the react js template. I tried to start it with 'npm run dev' and got the following permission error.

error when starting dev server:
Error: listen EPERM: operation not permitted 127.0.0.1:3000
...

Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas how to fix it?

In case anyone else is having this problem, I was able to resolve it by uninstalling node and then reinstalling it.
