title: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT from socket.io client
body: <p>I am using Socket.io 1.4.8, server set up at <a href="https://nodejstapchat-breathalert.rhcloud.com/socket.io/socket.io.js" rel="nofollow">openshift</a>, and is running well. </p>
  
  <p>I only got it to run after I went in to the socket.io server code and removed the explicit port in the url.</p>
  
  <p>My problem now is that on the socket.io client side, I keep getting this error in the Chrome console:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>GET <a href="https://nodejstapchat-breathalert.rhcloud.com:8080/socket.io/?EIO=3&amp;transport=polling&amp;t=LN4EN7L" rel="nofollow">https://nodejstapchat-breathalert.rhcloud.com:8080/socket.io/?EIO=3&amp;transport=polling&amp;t=LN4EN7L</a> net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT  socket.io.js:3511 </p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I suspect, it is again the redundant port in the URL. How do I cleanly remove the ":8080" but from the URL?</p>
  
  <p>Please advice if this is actually my problem, or something else.</p>
