I am completely new to node js , I am trying to set it up in EC2 AWS.I tried using the command "npm start" but nothing has happened
below is my package.json
{
"name": "sample",
"version": "0.0.0",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "node ./bin/www"
},
"dependencies": {
"cookie-parser": "~1.4.4",
"debug": "~2.6.9",
"ejs": "~2.6.1",
"express": "~4.16.1",
"http-errors": "~1.6.3",
"morgan": "~1.9.1",
"pm2": "^5.1.2"
}
}bouldercef$ npm start
after running npm start the below lines appear ,but not able to see the site
boulder#0.0.0 start /home/ubuntu/bouldercef
node ./bin/www
If your site is running properly in your machine, and if you have node/npm installed in your EC2 instance and you are not receiving any errors, looks like your project is running without issues.
So the problem can be that you are not connect to your site using HTTP.
Take a look on the security group attached with your instance to check if you allow users to connect on HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443).
To more information of how to make these ports available for your users check How do I allow my users to connect on HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443)?

So I have simple express app. When it run locally, I can see js, css files got gzip compressed but when I deploy to cloud foundry, those files not compressed. The files size still the same.
Anyone know the reason, how to fix it or solutions for this issue ?
const express = require('express');
const compression = require('compression');
const app = express();
app.use(compression());
app.use(express.static('./public'));

Update:
Look like there is location problem. When it's deployed to Sydney, the compression doesn't work but Dallas is ok. IBM support have confirmed the issue in my ticket and currently investigate.
I have the same issue, I feel like I've tried absolutely everything so far:
Static Gzipping (serving .gz files)
Brotli (no dice)
Dynamic compression (like you)
Redirect to static .gz files
It works locally as it should but once deployed - farting noise nothing.
I have a feeling it happens in the proxy and needs to be enabled somewhere, where is not documented though
Commenting here to follow this, also I've contacted their support, if I get any answers I will put them here :)
This issue was fixed by IBM.
"After investigation, we found an issue that strips the header and decompresses the response in the Cloud Foundry Platform AU-SYD region."
basically, I am Using Gandi Simple Hosting for a Node.js application. I would like to use a specific Node.js version. I'm ready that all I had to do was making a ".nvmrc" file and putting the required version number in it.
Now my .nvmrc file looks like this.
6.11.0
And my package.json file is like this.
{
"name": "name-of-my-app",
"version": "0.3.0",
"dependencies": {
"express": "3.x",
"socket.io": "1.x",
"mysql": "2.x",
"ejs": "2.x",
"emailjs": "1.x",
"svg-captcha": "1.x",
"sitemap": "1.x",
"discord.js": "11.x"
},
"scripts": {
"start": "node server.js"
}
}
When I restart my server, the console says the following.
/srv/data/web/vhosts/default /srv/data/web/vhosts/default
N/A: version "N/A" is not yet installed.
You need to run "nvm install N/A" to install it before using it.
Despite looking at the Gandi documentation, I can't find out what is wrong.
Thanks you in advance for your help! :-)

I got an answer from the Gandi Technical Assistance.
I was told to deploy my code using Git. I made it work by following these inscructions: https://wiki.gandi.net/en/simple/git.
For my web application I am using "live-server": "^0.9.2", here's the package json file,
{
"name": "demoapp",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "This project contains the samples of the book",
"scripts": {
"live": "live-server",
"start": "npm run live"
},
"dependencies": {
"angular": "^1.5.0",
"angular-messages": "^1.5.0",
"angular-route": "^1.5.0",
"bootstrap": "^3.3.6",
"jquery": "^2.2.0"
},
"devDependencies": {
"live-server": "^0.9.2"
}
}
When I am executing command "npm start", live server starts and web page starts # http://127.0.0.1:8080/
Now, whenever I am changing content for html/css, change detection is not happening and browser content is also not refreshed.
What could be the reason for it? how to resolve it. Thanks!!!
According to the github readme doc, the extension works best if it can find html files which are served by default on the web browser. It may detect changes in the local files that you edit, but rendering them to the browser depends on whether you are editing an html file or not. There has to be a hack for it to work, just not found one yet
NightmareJS on c9.io is literally a nightmare.
i cannot get it to work at all i am going to run through the whole process from start to finish.
Step 1
I create a new workspace
Hosted
Node.js
Step 2
Start Editing my new workspace
I open Package.json and add what i need heres my file.
{
"name": "chat-example",
"version": "0.0.0",
"description": "A chat example to showcase how to use `socket.io` with a static `express` server",
"main": "server.js",
"repository": "",
"author": "Mostafa Eweda <mostafa#c9.io>",
"dependencies": {
"async": "~0.2.8",
"express": "~3.2.4",
"socket.io": "~0.9.14",
"phantomjs": "*",
"casperjs": "*",
"nightmarejs": "*",
"utils": "*",
"crypto": "*"
}
}
i then run 'npm install' in the console.
Step 3
this is where it does not work i try all theses diffrent commands to get the examples running and the errors i get.
#stackoverflow:~/828481 $ cd node_modules/nightmarejs/examples/
#stackoverflow:~/828481/node_modules/nightmarejs/examples $ node server.js casper.js

I have it working. I also had trouble at first. I tried downloading the prebuilt package, but I can't seem to get that working. I ended up just adding the following to my package.json file and ran npm update and all was well:
"nightmare": "^1.5.0",
"phantomjs": "~1.9.7"
Probably they've updated the npm repo and everything since you've posted this. I bet it was frustrating. I don't have those examples in my install, but I would guess you could run them if you had all of the right pre-req's installed.
I've begun using Node.js to make web applications. It's really awesome. I've come across a few modules that I want to incorporate into my build. I can work with the modules in Terminal after a global npm install. When it comes time to add them to my application, I have no idea how to go about placing them in my directory structure and I haven't found any good documentation on this. My typical node.js directory is:
ROOT
Server
server.js
node-modules
Client
index.html
css
-main.css
javascript
-main.js
-jquery.js
My process for installing the modules has been:
I cd into my Server file and run npm install
Then I go to my package.json file and include the module in the dependencies
{
"name": "application-name",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "node app"
},
"dependencies": {
"express": "3.1.0",
"jade": "*",
"stylus": "*",
"<node-module-here>": "1.0.x",
},
"engines": {
"node": "0.10.0",
"npm": "1.2.14"
},
}
After that, I head over to the server.js file I add:
module.exports = require('<path_to_node-module_lib>');
When I run functions that are dependent on the modules on the Client side (functions that work in Terminal), I don't receive an error but the function won't run. Because I'm not receiving errors I have no idea about how to debug. If anyone can recognize some fatal flaw in my structure or implementation and can offer some recommendations, I offer my first born.
