Webhook post error

[samko635]

Hi, I did everything as instructions(https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/getting-started/webhook-setup) but I keep getting this error!
What did I do wrong?

Requesting side>>>

curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST "localhost:1337/webhook" -d '{"object": "page", "entry": [{"messaging": [{"message": "TEST_MESSAGE"}]}]}'

Can you post a gist or link to your code? It appears you probably have a syntax error in your index.js file.

These are the files I created following the manual. And there is node_modules directory created by Node.js promt with "npm install express body-parser" command. I'll add exrpess vers. for ref.

• body-parser@1.18.2
• express@4.16.2

What am I doing wrong? Json seems fine to me and I even checked it with https://jsonlint.com/

[amuramoto]

What version of node are you running? I've run the code and the cURL request you provided and did not get an error.

Closing this since there has been no response for over a week.

I am using curl on cmder and this command works fine:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "localhost:1337/webhook" -d {\"object\":\"page\",\"entry\":[{\"messaging\":[{\"message\":\"TEST_MESSAGE\"}]}]}

I've been having the exact same problem, i tried on the command line tool, but i still can't figure out what the problem is.

I was just having the same error and tried to use the version of @vojtob it started worked!
