The last time I deployed a nodejs application I used forever to run it as a service.

I have installed node6.0.0pre on a Ubuntu server 14.04 and when I run node ./bin/www I can test my application and it works ok.

**I run forever

forever start app.js 
warn:    --minUptime not set. Defaulting to: 1000ms
warn:    --spinSleepTime not set. Your script will exit if it does not        stay up for at least 1000ms
info:    Forever processing file: app.js**

However the application does not seem to work ... ideas ?

forever start --spinSleepTime 10000 app.js – prasun Nov 03 '15 at 16:14
actually the way recent node is configured by default you have to run ./bin/www instead of app.js – avrono Nov 03 '15 at 16:14
@avrono you are talking about express, not nodejs – yellowsir Nov 03 '15 at 16:19
@yellowsir, correct sorry for confusion – avrono Nov 03 '15 at 16:40
