`[eth] =✘= Web3 connection attempt #0 failed`

[maroodb]

I have already geth clients running in my machine. I want to install the api and connected to my geth clients.
I followed the readme and I have this processes.json file

"env":
	{
		"NODE_ENV"        : "production", // tell the client we're in production environment
		"RPC_HOST"        : "localhost", // eth JSON-RPC host
		"RPC_PORT"        : "8502", // eth JSON-RPC port
		"LISTENING_PORT"  : "30312", // eth listening port (only used for display)
		"INSTANCE_NAME"   : "", // whatever you wish to name your node
		"CONTACT_DETAILS" : "", // add your contact details here if you wish (email/skype)
		"WS_SERVER"       : "10.2.1.139", // path to eth-netstats WebSockets api server
		"WS_SECRET"       : "mypasswd", // WebSockets api server secret used for login
		"VERBOSITY"       : 2 // Set the verbosity (0 = silent, 1 = error, warn, 2 = error, warn, info, success, 3 = all logs)
	}

then when I run : npm start processes.json
I got this error:

[eth] =✘= Web3 connection attempt #0 failed

I am seeing this issue. Is there any known fix ?

Yeah, run rpc so web3 connection can be made. The fix is setting things up correctly.
