var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.use(express.static('public'));
app.listen('3000',function () {
    console.log("Express server is up on port 3000!");
});

<h4>Hello world!</h4>

</html>

When I try to connect web-server on port 3000 I get 404! What am I doing wrong ?
The browser displays

Cannot GET /

GET localhost:3000 404 (Not Found)

404 is an error code from the server side. It means that you have successfully connected to it, but the server cannot find what you are looking for.

Is the file ```public/index.html``` available?
