EC2 is properly deployed with my NodeJS server but I can't figure out how to keep it running without an ssh connection to the linux machine and running npm start
For Example:
[ec2-user#ip-172-31-89-105 me_server]$ npm start
> me-server#1.0.0 start
> nodemon index.js
[nodemon] 2.0.20
[nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
[nodemon] watching path(s): *.*
[nodemon] watching extensions: js,mjs,json
[nodemon] starting `node index.js`
Server Started at 8080
Database Connected
I can run this command from an ssh tunnel from my local machine but I don't want my local machine to be in control of the server connection, how can I tell EC2 to run npm start on its own and keep it running indefinitely?

I am getting the above error
[nodemon] starting `ts-node index.ts`
dev uncaught exception: listen EADDRINUSE: address already in use :::5000 +0ms
[nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...
I tried to find the pid with sudo lsof -i :5000
then kill -9
But then a new process pops up at the same port again. It keeps happening infinitely so I found the parent process with pid 1 and killed it and laptop restarted.
I am unable to run my node app on 5000. Any suggestions?
Edit: My repo is a node app at the root level and has a client folder which is the react app.
I find myself having to cycle through the following pattern in terminal while using nodemon:

nodemon is supposed to handle restarting the server on changes, so I'm not sure why it seems to keep conflicting with itself and forcing me to kill processes. Does anyone know if this is a misconfiguration, or how to overcome this? I'm on Lubuntu 18.04 and my terminal is this:
$ bash --version

I am trying to run in debug mode using Git Bash a nodejs application.
I did it several times but on the recent ones it doesn't work anymore.
When I run the command:
npm run startwindows:inspect
it says:
14 Apr 15:10:59 - [nodemon] v1.4.1

14 Apr 15:11:03 - [nodemon] watching 37,149 files - this might cause high cpu usage. To reduce use "--watch".
What can I provide more is that startwindows:inspect is a script from the package.json file and it looks like this:
"startwindows:inspect":"set NODE_ENV=dus&& set NODE_CONFIG_DIR=./config-local/&& nodemon -V -w server -w config-local -e js,json,yaml --inspect --debug-brk| bunyan -o short"
What means by using --watch? Is this a normal case when testing it in debug? My CPU % utilization looks fine all the time.
Well it says exactly what the problem is.

Previous instance of the app is still running. Just restart your computer or kill related running processes.
New Edit: By OwlyMoly
Killing processes at a particular port: (In Mac)
If you know the port where your app running at, then check for that port ID and kill the process.
To check port id:
lsof -i :YourPort
or
lsof -n -iTCP:YourPort | grep LISTEN
Then get PID from the result and use the below command to kill that process.
To Kill process using PID:
kill -9 PID
I have a nodemon running in a docker-container with a mounted volume on OSX. Nodemon is receiving the file-change but it doesn't restart the server.

everyone. I like to use nodemon while developing with node.js because its restart on changes feature. I never had any problem at all. But since I updated Ubuntu from 13.04 to 13.10 it fails to restart on every change I make, so I have to restart my server manually. I run my apps as always, like so:
nodemon app.js
and with some config options like:
nodemon app.js production
The problem is, like I said, that even if the file I'm modifying is a client side one, I happen to get:
9 Nov 13:48:29 - [nodemon] v0.7.10
9 Nov 13:48:29 - [nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
9 Nov 13:48:29 - [nodemon] watching: /home/alevardi/render/wip/paraiso
9 Nov 13:48:29 - [nodemon] starting `node app.js`
Express server listening on port 3000
Successfully connected to MongoDB
9 Nov 13:48:51 - [nodemon] exiting
The last line of the output above, appears when I change a file. So, what can i do for fixing this awful issue? It is driving me crazy!
NOTE: I've tried with Forever and supervisor with the same results.
Thanks a lot for your help.
