Hi @channel, I’m new to Pact and in need of your guidance. I have a running api test harness locally on port 3000. I set my providerBaseUrl to this server but when I run the test I see that provider is listening to a different port. Could someone pls point what I’m missing?

return new Verifier({
      providerBaseUrl: "<http://localhost:3000>", // <- location of your running provider
      pactUrls: [
        path.resolve(
          process.cwd(),
          "./pacts/sampleConsumer-sampleProvider.json"
        ),
      ],
    })

[2022-10-24 06:22:28.693 +0000] TRACE (33504 on xxxxxxx): pact@10.1.4: Verifying pacts with: {"providerStatesSetupUrl":"<http://localhost:64042/_pactSetup>","provider":"sampleProvider","providerBaseUrl":"<http://localhost:64042>","pactUrls":["C:\\Users\\gwenne\\Desktop\\Workspace\\pact-sample-test\\pacts\\sampleConsumer-sampleProvider.json"],"logLevel":"TRACE","validateSSL":true,"changeOrigin":false}

I am receiving failed test but I am not provided with a detailed error.

FYI going forward, best asking in the language specific channel (e.g. #C9VBGLUM9 in this case)

thanks for responding, Matt. this is the log returned.

they should probably be

I have a running api test harness on localhost:3000. My provider test script is

The request / response logging is actually at
