I’m stuck on Stage #IH0

I’ve tried … resetting the whole thing.

Here are my logs:

```auto
[compile] Compilation successful.

[tester::#IH0] Running tests for Stage #IH0 (Extract URL path)
[tester::#IH0] Running program
[tester::#IH0] $ ./your_server.sh

```

Hey man, hope you’re doing fine !

I’ve had a similar problem on another project and I was using goroutines (“go doSomething()”) without understanding it and knowing that a new thread is created, which I guess was “hiding” the connection port ? So maybe verify your function calls, hope that helps !

@yossev could you share a snippet of your code? Hard to help without more information.
