Domain only showing Index of/ and not calling the index.ejs file

[Mr.J]

Good Day,

I am attempting to deploy a node.js and express app on a bluehost VPS via cpanel, however, I can't seem to get the domain to call on the index.ejs file.

The git repo is cloned and deployed to the Head.

a .cpanel.yml file has been created specifying all the necessary deployment tasks and written according to the docs.

---
deployment:
tasks:
- export DEPLOYPATH=/home/deltade4/public_html
- /bin/cp -R /home/deltade4/repositories/DeltaDesigns22 $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp node_modules $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp -R public $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp -R views $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp -R images $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp -R css $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp app.js $DEPLOYPATH
- /bin/cp package.json $DEPLOYPATH

Node js enabled, installed, along with npm dependencies, and the app is registered with the application manager, and deployed.

The public_html directory, contains the entire git repo which includes the Views/index.ejs file

When running /opt/cpanel/ea-nodejs10/bin/node app.js -- I'm returned with the "server running on port 127...."

And when I log into WHM via root and run curl 127.0.0.1:3000 : I receive all the html to my index.ejs file.

But when going to the REDACTED domain I can only see the DeltaDesigns22 (repo folder with all the necessary contents.

I can't figure out the last step to get this app deployed properly, and have been stuck at this point for a couple days now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you

Hey there! Our support for Node.JS is very limited, but have you tried the How to Install a Node.js Application | cPanel & WHM Documentation section of the documentation to see if that gets things loaded properly?

 

[Mr.J]

Thanks, and yes I've went over that document, 20-30 times this week and how I was able to get this far, with having all things installed and the server running.
