Run first Nodejs app on cpanel godaddy hosting - node.js

I'm trying to run my first Node.js application, but I'm having trouble. This could be an error with the firewall on CPanel, but I'm not sure.
I'm running Node.js version 5.0.0
And this is my js:
var net = require('net');
var server = net.createServer(function (socket) {
socket.write('Open Serverrn');
socket.pipe(socket); });
server.listen(674, 'my.ip.add.ress');
console.log('Server running at http://my.ip.add.ress:674/');
And final : this is my notification :
node test.js
Error is:
Server running at http://my.ip.add.ress:674/
events.js:141
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^
Error: listen EACCES my.ip.add.ress:674

When I open my console with port 674, it's always loading and timing out after a few seconds. Why is that? Plz help me this issue.

I do not believe GoDaddy has Node.js support, as per this: How to install nodejs application in Godaddy server
Common hosts for Node apps would be:
Digital Ocean, Nodejitsu (owned by GoDaddy anyway), Modulus, Heroku, Joyent, and AWS, I believe.

You need to use port higher than 1024. To bind lower ports you need root privileges or allow program to bind via setcap - can't be implimented at GoDaddy or other shared hosting.

Using Azure ZipDeploy, what port should my Node.js app listen on?

I have a GraphQL, Node api layer that by default, listens on port 3001.
When I deploy the app to an Azure Web App using ZipDeploy, I can't access any endpoints (e.g. /graphql).
I understand that Azure Web Apps only listen on 80 or 443, but I get an error when I configure my app to listen on either of those.
2019-06-04 10:09:40 [32minfo[39m: Running a GraphQL API server at

Is there something else in Azure I need to configure?
Thanks,

If you're deploying to an Azure Web App, only ports 80 and 443 are public-facing. This maps to a specific port for your app to listen to, retrievable via process.env.PORT.
And if you're running both in Azure and locally, you can easily manage which port you listen to, with something like this, based on your reference to port 3001 in your question:
var port = process.env.PORT || 3001;
server.listen(port);

Looking at the error description it might be a connectivity issue. If you could share your mup.json file we might be able to spot the issue there.
Did you create an endpoint on TCP port 80? Check you nodeVersion setting so it corresponds to you Meteor app. The ROOT_URL should be in the format http://[myappname].cloudapp.net.
Using mup logs -n 50 you might detect some clues.

I currently run my amazon ec2 instance on port 3000. I want to run it on port 80 instead. How can I do it?

I have a node.js app that runs on port 3000. I deployed it on amazon web services (ec2) and it works over there. My server.js file says:
var port = process.env.PORT || 3000;
(...)
app.listen(port);
console.log('App listening on port ' + port);
My security group in aws settings seems to have the port 80 also opened:
so I thought it's enough to just change the var port to = 80 and restart the server. But when I did that I got an error:
bitnami#ip-172-31-47-102:~/apps/myproject/www/myproject$ sudo node server.js

I'm using the Bitnami MEAN 3.2.1-0 system on Amazon.
Also, the reason why I want to change this port is this:
so far all my webservices operate on port 3000. However, I also have there a public_html folder with the index.html file. So when any user wants to display my webpage he has to enter not only the webpage, but also the port (3000) which is not that convenient.
So far the whole app stays under www.ec2-some-random-amazom-numbers.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:3000/index.html so I will buy a normal top level domain to point at it (eg. something.com ) but then - do I still need to change the port 3000 to 80 in that case? Or maybe it's common to leave apps on port other than 80?
If the latter, then will it be possible for me to leave the port as it is and just point the top level domain on this whole long amazon one with a port 3000 at the end?
So for example: when user types www.something.com it will redirect him to
www.ec2-some-random-amazom-numbers.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:3000/index.html ?
Something like this should work for you:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3000
You want to use iptables to forward request coming in on port 80 to port 3000 internally.
Based on the error you're getting, (EADDRINUSE), some other web server is listening on port 80 already on your server. If you can prevent that server from running, then you can change your app to run on port 80.
Do the following:
Figure out what's already running on port 80 on your server. There's a good chance it's Apache. Try using netstat to verify.
Kill it (and prevent it from restarting). This will depend on whats listening.
Move your app to port 80 just like you've already tried.
Additional resources:
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/what-process-has-open-linux-port/
If you are using the Bitnami Mean Stack then Apache is listening in port 80, hence the conflict. You can either stop the bundled Apache:
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop apache
Or you could add a ProxyPass rule in the Apache configuration:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass
I use nginx proxy server for port forwarding
I have faced the same issue.
The solution is to start your NodeJs or ExpressJs app using Port 80, I mean
var port = 80 and start the app using sudo node bin/www
My issue is not able to access the app from internet when the app is running on port 3000: NodeJs App in AWS using port 3000 is not accessible from Internet

socket.io redis store on openshift

I'm trying to set up socket.io on node.js to use redisstore so i can comunicate with pubsub with multiple node on the opeshift platform, but i can't manage to connect to the redis server. I'm using this cartridge.
I tried to connect with
var pub = redis.createClient(process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_PORT,
process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_HOST);
but it doesn't work (and I found out why: createClient() only accept IP addresses) and it fallback to the default port and host, then I ran rhc port-forward:
$ rhc port-forward appname
Checking available ports ... done
Forwarding ports ...
Address already in use - bind(2) while forwarding port 8080. Trying local port 8081
To connect to a service running on OpenShift, use the Local address

haproxy 127.0.0.1:8080 => 127.5.149.130:8080

s_redis_db_host 127.0.0.1:54151 => blabla.appname.rhcloud.com:54151
Press CTRL-C to terminate port forwarding
So I tought I was doing all wrong and I had to set just the port like this:
var pub = redis.createClient(process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_PORT);
but all I get is this
info: socket.io started
events.js:72
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

I tried to connect via
telnet $OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_HOST $OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_PORT
And it works fine... Do you have any suggestions? Am I doing it wrong? (I'm still new to redis and socket.io)
(I omitted the rest of the code 'cause I know it works, I have no problem on my local machine, I just can't get the connection...)
Thanks a lot
but it doesn't work (and I found out why: createClient() only accept IP addresses) and it fallback to the default port and host
It does support Host, createClient uses net.createConnection(port, host); that does support hostname.
The following code will help you find the issue:
console.log(process.env);
var pub = redis.createClient(process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_PORT,
process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_HOST, {auth_pass: process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_DB_PASSWORD});
pub.on('error', console.log.bind(console));
pub.on('ready', console.log.bind(console, 'redis ready'));
Does your openshift Redis instance requires AUTH ?
don't know if it is about a recent change on openshift, but i think the problem is in the variables. Although they work for telnet.
you can try this
var redisHost = process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_HOST;
var redisPort = process.env.OPENSHIFT_REDIS_PORT;
var redisPass = process.env.REDIS_PASSWORD;
var client = redis.createClient( redisPort, redisHost );
client.auth( redisPass );

Nodejs : Error get/response localhost

I'm running a Cakephp app with MAMP on localhost at port 80. I've also Node.js who listen/write on port 4000 with a js script from the Cake app (localhost/client).
When I call Node from js app, it works.
But, when I try to call a Cakephp page (localhost/saveData/123) from Node by http.get(); oder http.request for saving data in database, it crash.
events.js:71
throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event

Oder
problem with request: connect ECONNREFUSED
I've test width www.google.com, it works. It seems that's the problem is about "localhost".
Could someone help me? :)
EDIT : I've try with 127.0.0.1 too but it doesn't work (for MAMP and Node).
PS : sorry for my english, i'm french :)
Probably you have a local webserver running on port 80. Also programs like Skype can be connected to the port 80.
You can try close Skype and/or Webserver (XAMPP, WAMPP, usbwebserver, etc...).
