Node / socket.io / Heroku / Port issue with deployment - Please help!

require("dotenv").config(); var express = require("express"); var path = require("path"); var bodyParser = require("body-parser"); var exphbs = require("express-handlebars"); var expressValidator = require("express-validator"); var expressSession = require("express-session"); var MSSQLStore = require('connect-mssql')(expressSession); var db = require("./models"); let server; var app = express(); server = require("http").createServer(app); var io = require("socket.io").listen(server); var PORT = process.env.PORT || 8080; server.listen(3000); var config = { user: "root", password: "root", server: "localhost", // You can use 'localhost\\instance' to connect to named instance database: "forumdb", options: { encrypt: true // Use this if you're on Windows Azure } }; // Middleware app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false })); app.use(bodyParser.json()); app.use(expressValidator()); app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, "/public"))); app.use( expressSession({ store: new MSSQLStore(config), key: "user_sid", secret: "JRS", saveUninitialized: false, resave: false }) ); // Handlebars app.engine( "handlebars", exphbs({ defaultLayout: "main" }) ); app.set("view engine", "handlebars"); // Routes require("./routes/apiRoutes")(app); require("./routes/htmlRoutes")(app); require("./routes/loginRoutes")(app); require("./routes/topics-api-routes")(app); require("./routes/users-api-routes")(app); require("./routes/post-api-routes")(app); require("./routes/reply-api-routes")(app); var syncOptions = { force: false }; // If running a test, set syncOptions.force to true // clearing the `testdb` if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "test") { syncOptions.force = true; } // Starting the server, syncing our models ------------------------------------/ db.sequelize.sync(syncOptions).then(function() { app.listen(PORT, function() { console.log( "==> 🌎 Listening on port %s. Visit http://localhost:%s/ in your browser.", PORT, PORT ); }); }); module.exports = app; // CHAT APPLICATION CODE users = []; connections = []; io.sockets.on("connection", function(socket) { connections.push(socket); console.log("Connected: %s sockets connect", connections.length); socket.on("disconnect", function(data) { console.log(data); users.splice(users.indexOf(socket.username), 1); updateUsernames(); connections.splice(connections.indexOf(socket), 1); console.log("Disconnected: %s sockets connected", connections.length); }); socket.on("send message", function(data) { io.sockets.emit("new message", { msg: data, user: socket.username }); console.log(data); }); socket.on("new user", function(data, cb) { cb(true); socket.username = data; users.push(socket.username); updateUsernames(); }); function updateUsernames() { io.sockets.emit("get users", users); } }); If I could get this fixed prior to 5 PM today it would really save my ass. This is my code. Deployed locally, it works perfectly. Socket's is listening on a separate port (3000) and fires accordingly. Deployed on Heroku however, there is an issue with the two ports. I can't figure out how to solve it.Is there anyone that might be able to fix this code so that it deploys correctly on Heroku?
