When I create a snapshot of my server it creates something completely different. Instead of the files/folders/settings of the original, all I see when I ssh into it is a file names adduser.sh
I have a one-click ghost app running but would like to incorporate forever or pm2 to restart the app if it fails. Is this being used by default or is there a way to start the ghost app with one of the above packages?
I have this app/social network i'm about to launch. The back-end uses PHP+ MySQL to serve the Mobile app (iOS and Android) I read a lot of things but they are very confused. They are not CLEAR if an application using APACHE (get data from database receiving in json, load images, load and send messages, post text, etc) will really be faster just because it's a dynamic content WHEN we're scaling (like many people using at the same time). Some say it's the same, some say apache is faster, some test i saw showed nginx faster than apache even for dynamic content when there's more than 10 requests at the same time. Anyone would tell me if an API (php+mysql) for a mobile app would be faster on APACHE or NGINX? (DEFAULT installation, im not talking about ninja tricks) ??
My Meteor app is not working in Ubuntu 16.04. I'm stuck and would really appreciate any help. I created a systemd service config for my Meteor app. My app appears to start but I get a 502 in the browser. It appears that my service is running ``` root@ubuntu# journalctl -f -u mymeteorapp Nov 06 22:33:52 ubuntu systemd[1]: Started mymeteorapp.service. root@ubuntu:~# systemctl status mymeteorapp Nov 05 12:48:42 ubuntu systemd[1]: Started Meteor.js (NodeJS) mymeteorapp application. root@ubuntu:~# ``` But I get this nginx error ``` root@ubuntu:/lib/systemd/system# tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log 2016/11/06 22:34:29 [error] 13486#13486: *248 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 84.23.134.181, server: 36.102.142.66, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:8080/", host: "36.102.142.66" ``` Running netstat shows this: ``` root@ubuntu:/lib/systemd/system# netstat -plnt Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4849/nginx -g daemo tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:27017 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 17393/mongod tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4849/nginx -g daemo tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1467/sshd tcp6 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN 4849/nginx -g daemo tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN 1467/sshd ``` But I should see something here for 8080?
