Created a brand new express.js project by running the following commands on a windows command prompt

npm install express -g 
express newproject
cd newproject
npm install
node app

I then open a browser window to http://localhost:3000/ and get the following error

    500 Error: c:\projects\newproject\views\index.jade:5<br/> 3| block content <br/> 4| h1= title <br/> > 5| p Welcome to #{title}<br/><br/>`doctype 5` is deprecated, you must now use `doctype html`
3| block content 
4| h1= title 
> 5| p Welcome to #{title}

`doctype 5` is deprecated, you must now use `doctype html`

有帮助吗?

解决方案

To fix your current project and any projects you build with the current version of Express, go to your layout.jade file and change the first line to: doctype html (the second line should read: html)

The issue with is known and has been resolved so it will not be an issue in a future version of Express. https://github.com/visionmedia/express/pull/1875

其他提示

Use :

doctype html
html(lang="en")

change "doctype 5" to "doctype html" on line 1 of views/layout.jade for your brand new project.
