Cannot deploy AdonisJS app on cyberpanel successfully

We searched the forum here and found several examples of how to run a node app on the server. But we were not successful.

We added context at the end of the vhost

Could someone tell us where we could be wrong in our setup?

Hello @marcelodelta

There is where the issue may be. It should be

binPath                 /usr/bin/node

Can you run the app manually via terminal ? plus is it SSG or SSR

Hi,

It is the version of node we are currently using. We are using specific version
/root/.asdf/installs/nodejs/16.19.1/bin/node

This file is not found on our server.
/usr/bin/node

When running the command below directly in the terminal, the app runs without errors.

/root/.asdf/installs/nodejs/16.19.1/bin/node server.js

[01:24:03.176] INFO (delta/1028213): started server on 0.0.0.0:3334

Our app is a PWA

Thank you for your attention.

4

So you are using expressjs to serve it ?

5

Our application is made with AdonisJS

6

Easy. If you have dotenv to specify the port change it to 3333 or 3001

7

Do you have the build files here or there in /build in same location ?

8

Does it only work with these ports?

9

The file for the startup is in the public_html root. server.js

10

No am just giving you examples. Sometime port 3000 never works use another port is same range

11

What is your npm version? Anything above 8 should work perfectly

Use PM2 to see why the app doesnt run. Install it and add your app. Its best if your reboot you server after then open monitoring interface to see error logs

Remember the dotenv is not usually copied during build you have to create one inside build folder and copy your database variables and any other environment variables

12

what would the context look like to use pm2?

13

PM2 does not serve your app its just a prcoess manager think of it like a “logger” but its just more than that with built in load balancer

Install it globally and save/start your app

$ cd /home/myadonisjsapp.com/public_html
$ npm install pm2 -g
# add app to pm2
$ pm2 start server.js --name "mypwa" --watch
# daemonize your app
$ pm2 startup && pm2 save
# to see all your node apps
$ pm2 list
# Display all apps logs in realtime
$ pm2 monit
14

we managed to make it work with proxy and using pm2.

Is it better option?

15

Yes. What errors did you see ?

16

Does not work

#context / {
#type appserver
#location /home/comprarevender.pro/public_html
#binPath /root/.asdf/installs/nodejs/16.19.1/bin/node
#appType node
#startupFile server.js
#maxConns 100

#rewrite {

}

addDefaultCharset off

#}

It’s work

context / {
type proxy
handler compr1210
addDefaultCharset off
}

What is this for ?

18

If it worked here then there must be something new you introduced to the config. Check that first before saying it doesnt work
