HTTPS issues in azure - node.js

Question

I imported the git socket.io chat room project! The code works normally with http = require ('http') but when exchanging for https = require ('https') my server responds with error 500 http
var express = require('express')
, app = express()
// , http = require('http')
, https = require('https')
, fs = require('fs')
, privateKey = fs.readFileSync('HTTPS_Permissions/key.key', 'utf8')
, certificate = fs.readFileSync('HTTPS_Permissions/cert.cert', 'utf8')
, credentials = {key: privateKey, cert: certificate}
, httpsServer = https.createServer(credentials, app)
// , httpServer = http.createServer(app)
, io = require('socket.io').listen(httpsServer)
//, port = process.env.PORT || 8080
, port = process.env.PORT
httpsServer.listen(port, function () {
console.log('Server listening on port %d', port);
});
//httpServer.listen(port);
// routing
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.sendfile(__dirname + '/index.html');
});

I followed the project you shared in the comment,it works on my side.
web.config

You can control how Node is hosted within IIS using the following options:
* watchedFiles: semi-colon separated list of files that will be watched for changes to restart the server
* node_env: will be propagated to node as NODE_ENV environment variable
* debuggingEnabled - controls whether the built-in debugger is enabled
See https://github.com/tjanczuk/iisnode/blob/master/src/samples/configuration/web.config for a full list of options
-->
<iisnode watchedFiles="web.config;*.js"/>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
If you throw the index.html into public folder which is created by yourself under wwwroot/ directly, you need to add the below code into your code based on this article.
app.use(express.static('public'))
I tested for that.
Update Answer:
I also turn on the Web Sockets Option.
