trying to deploy a meteor application to centos 6 google cloud server, I followed this post after two days of setting up this server and compiling the project I stocked with the last step where I need to configure the app URL so what I did for now

1) create a sub directory at "/var/www/html/myproject" in centos 6 google cloud server

2) install nodejs v8.12.0 throw nvm

3) install mongodb 4.0.4

4) installing meteor 1.7.0.5 because my project is version 1.7.0.5

5) bundling my meteor project using "meteor build myproject"

6) uploading the genrated myproject.tar.gz to the server using FTP client to "/var/www/html/myproject"

7) unzip the myproject.tar.gz cd to /var/www/html/myproject/bundle/programs/server exucut npm installeverything is installed and ok

8) setting the PORT export PORT=3084

9) setting the MONGO_URL export MONGO_URL=mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/myprojectdb

10) setting the ROOT_URL export ROOT_URL=http://domain/myproject/ is that right to do so like http://domain/myproject/ or http://domain/is that correct thing to do?

11) i installed forever npm -g install forever

12) forever start /var/www/html/myproject/bundle/main.js and it's run without errors

and here where I got stocked how can I access my project how can I configure the app url to access it like http://mydomin/myproject I tried like the psot says in step 7 "Step 7: configure a reverse proxy in your apache configuration"

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/yourapp_domain.conf

then 

 <VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName myproject
  ProxyRequests off
  <Proxy *>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
  </Proxy>
  <Location />
    ProxyPass http://serverip:3084/myproject
    ProxyPassReverse http://serverip:3084/myproject
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

but I couldn't access the website throw http://serverip:3084/myproject I'm new with server configurations, and I couldn't find any good resources online doing what I'm trying to do please any help.

  • I think you are really just looking for the right way to configure your nginx proxy. I've marked this as a duplicate of a good question+answer for that. BTW, what *is* your domain? I see "domain", "mydomin" and "serverip". So where is it? – Christian Fritz Nov 24 '18 at 01:35
