I have manually setup a project and when I invoke it, it runs as expected.

I then, installed forever and forever-service globally.

I setup my project by cd into the directory (where the main.js file is located) and ran

# sudo forever-service install portal --script main.js
forever-service version 0.5.7

Platform - CentOS release 6.7 (Final)

portal provisioned successfully

Commands to interact with service portal
Start   - "sudo service portal start"
Stop    - "sudo service portal stop"
Status  - "sudo service portal status"
Restart - "sudo service portal restart"

So far everything is great. I killed my project manually to test this service.

I ran: service portal start and got: Starting portal as expected but the app is not running.

I check the log and I see a lot of the same errors:

APP_PATH is the correct path, just removed for posting this.

Why am I getting this error when using forever-service but not when I manually invoke my app?

So I assumed it was missing the PATH and added that to the /etc/init.d/portal file.

I added

# result of whereis forever or whereis node
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin  
# result of whereis node_modules
export NODE_PATH=$NODE_PATH:/usr/lib/node_modules:/usr/local/lib/node_modules

Same issue as above. Same error.

I also noted that when I stopped the service, it stated it stopped but when I started it, it was already running.. That may be due to it not running properly so I am ignoring that at this time.

So I deleted the forever-service I just created: sudo forever-service delete portal

I then manually started my app to make sure it wasn't an issue with my code and no issues.

So I wanted to make sure I was doing this correctly... I tried again.

This time, I ran sudo forever-service install portal --script main.js and got the output below.

# sudo forever-service install portal --script main.js
forever-service version 0.5.7

Platform - CentOS release 6.7 (Final)

portal provisioned successfully

Commands to interact with service portal
Start   - "sudo service portal start"
Stop    - "sudo service portal stop"
Status  - "sudo service portal status"
Restart - "sudo service portal restart"

I then edited the /etc/init.d/portal file and added

# result of whereis forever or whereis node
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin  
# result of whereis node_modules
export NODE_PATH=$NODE_PATH:/usr/lib/node_modules:/usr/local/lib/node_modules

below

#Setup Environment variables (if any)

And the exact same issue... I am getting numerous log entries of:

So at this point, I must assume it's something wrong with forever-service.

I hope this helps isolate any issue that may be happening. Or perhaps I missed a step...

The server is running:

# node -v
v0.10.43
#npm -v
1.4.29

These are requirements since we are using meteor.

Thanks

More investigation shows that forever is not mapping to the correct file location.

# sudo forever list
info:    Forever processes running
data:        uid    command       script  forever pid   id logfile             uptime  
data:    [0] portal /usr/bin/node main.js 10345   10452    /var/log/portal.log STOPPED 

When I run:

# /usr/bin/node main.js

I am seeing the exact error I have in my log. I also noticed that the node being loaded is not the correct one. So this issue is not really a problem with forever-service but more an issue with using nvm
