I use aws ec2 to host web server with node.js and apache.
So far, I always need to login ec2 through terminal to run npm start.
I wanna make it keep running even if Im not on terminal. How am I supposed to setup for it?
I turned on https, but nothing happened.
I appreciate it in advance.
One option is using the screen command:
screen
You will reach a new bash prompt for that screen. Run your app.
To detach the screen, press Ctrl+A, then D to detach from that screen.
To reattach screen when you next SSH in, use
screen -ls
to see detached screens and use
screen -r xxxxx
with the screen number to reattach that screen.
