TypeError: Object #<Server> has no method 'configure'

Hello,
When I try to run "node file.js" in command prompt. I get the following error.
socket.configure(function() {
^
TypeError: Object # has no method 'configure'
at init (C:\Users\user10\Desktop\trial1\game.js:8:9)

at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10)
at startup (node.js:119:16)
at node.js:906:3

here is my code :

var util = require("util"),
io = require("socket.io");
var socket,
players;
function init() {
players = [];
socket = io.listen(8000);
socket.configure(function() {
socket.set("transports", ["websocket"]);
socket.set("log level", 2);
});
};
init();

Please help me to solve this.
Thank You

Isn't `configure()` an Express thing, not a Socket.IO thing?

i asume, you're using socket.io 1.X. but configure is from 0.9. see here:  http://socket.io/docs/migrating-from-0-9/#configuration-differences

Well it sounds like the socket object doesn't have a method called configure. Have you checked the socket.io documentation? I didn't find any occurrences of the word "configure" there so that must not be how you're supposed to use it.
