Hi there,

The issue is here: https://github.com/premj21/MERN_SOCIAL_MEDIA/blob/master/server/server.js#L18. ../ will be relative to the current working directory, not relative to where server.js is. ../client/build doesn’t exist, which is why you get the Cannot GET / (a 404 response). Try using app.use("/", express.static(path.join(__dirname, '../client/assets'))))

Regards,

Keith
