webpack-dev-server hot reload not working on cloud9

[reckerswartz]

As previously discussed in issue #176 . I am having trouble making web pack work with Rails in my development environment, which is Cloud9.
My Environment:
Gems included by the bundle:
(Few are Below)

• bundler (1.16.1)
• coffee-rails (4.2.2)
• nokogiri (1.8.2)
• puma (3.11.2)
• rails (5.2.0.rc1)
• turbolinks (5.1.0)
• turbolinks-source (5.1.0)
• webpacker (3.2.2)
• websocket-driver (0.7.0)
• websocket-extensions (0.1.3)

Package Json

{
  "name": "******-dev",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "@rails/webpacker": "^3.2.2",
    "vue": "^2.5.13",
    "vue-loader": "^14.1.1",
    "vue-template-compiler": "^2.5.13"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "webpack-dev-server": "^2.11.1"
  }
}

Changed the development.dev_server entry config/webpacker.yml file into

dev_server:
    https: true
    host: localhost
    port: 3035
    public: your-workspace-name-yourusername.c9users.io:3035
    hmr: false
    # Inline should be set to true if using HMR
    inline: false
    overlay: true
    compress: true
    disable_host_check: true
    use_local_ip: false
    quiet: false
    headers:
      'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'
    watch_options:
      ignored: /node_modules/

after running webpack-dev-server live changes cannot be seen without reload.
When Inline sets to true then i have error

Hi there, what line are you using to execute the webpack-dev-server?

I've one similar issue trying to execute webpack dev

constantly getting those errors,
webpack-dev-server/bin/webpack-dev-server.js:405
throw e;

i've tried

webpack-dev-server --host localhost --port 8081

webpack-dev-server --host $IP --port $PORT

webpack-dev-server --public $C9_HOSTNAME:8081

if i put the url of the server xxxxxx.xxxx.cloud9.us.. etc on the host: and public: url:port

i get

bind(2) for "xxxxxx.xxxx.cloud9.us...com" port 8081

not really sure what to check more, rails s is not running so port is free, so maybe you can throw some light on that :)

thanks!
