Comment to Jot Server won't work when the SSH console is closed

  • @Alexey I did everything described in the link you mentioned above. I do believe that Jot Server was installed correctly.

    When I check the forever process using this command line:

    forever list

    I get this result:

    (node:26054) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'padLevels' of module exports inside circular dependency
    (Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)
    (node:26054) Warning: Accessing non-existent property 'padLevels' of module exports inside circular dependency
    info:    Forever processes running
    data:        uid  command       script forever pid   id logfile                 uptime
    data:    [0] StUH /usr/bin/node app.js 26386   26397    /root/.forever/StUH.log 1:20:48:5.690999999991618

    Is there any other way to check whether Jot Server is run as background process/daemon like "node app.js" or not?

    Thanks

    • Hello!

      Yes, you can check if the node is active, you should run this command:

      ps ax | grep node

      It shows the all processes with node js. You need to find line with path_to_jot_server/app.js . If it exists, then it is running.

      Also may be you forgot to install the all dependencies using command:

      npm install

      You may provide me with server details via PM, I can check.

      • I have checked, indeed the node is active.

        I run the command:

        ps ax | grep node

        and it gave me this result:

        21007 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto node
        26386 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/bin/node /usr/lib/node_modules/forever/bin/monitor app.js
        26397 ?        Sl     0:12 /usr/bin/node /home/xxxxxx/xxxxxx/app.js

        Also I installed all dependecies using the command line: npm install when installing Jot server. 69 packages were installed as I described in the link (post) below and you told me back then that everythig was good.

        https://una.io/d/jot-server-installation-and-messenger

        Anyway, I double-checked whether all the dependencies were installed using:

        npm list

        npm list --global

        npm list -g

        It gave me a long list of installed npm packages and their dependencies like this:

        /root
        └─┬ forever@4.0.1
          ├── async@1.5.2
          ├─┬ cliff@0.1.10
          │ ├── colors@1.0.3 extraneous
          │ ├── eyes@0.1.8
          │ └── winston@0.8.3 deduped
          ├── clone@2.1.2
          ├── colors@0.6.2
          ├─┬ configstore@4.0.0
          │ ├─┬ dot-prop@4.2.1
          │ │ └── is-obj@1.0.1

        etc... (the list is long)

        Also, it gave me some errors like:

        npm ERR! extraneous: colors@1.0.3 /root/node_modules/cliff/node_modules/colors
        npm ERR! extraneous: cliff@0.1.9 /root/node_modules/broadway/node_modules/cliff
        npm ERR! extraneous: eventemitter2@0.4.14 /root/node_modules/broadway/node_modules/eventemitter2
        npm ERR! extraneous: winston@0.8.0 /root/node_modules/broadway/node_modules/winston

        etc... (the list is long)

        I don't know what those errors mean, but as you call tell, all the dependencies were installed.

        I am sending you my server details via PM so that you can check.

        Thanks.
