Question

Server at 127.0.0.1:3001 (sub domain) is not working, 127.0.0.1:3000 (main) is working fine.

Hello everyone. Currently I am deploying the site to the vps. I successfully ran the nextjs app in home directory(domain.com) in 127.0.0.1:3000 but the PERN stack app in admin.domain.com.au, the frontend is working right, but it seem the server at 127.0.0.1:3001 is not working(I tried netstat -plant | grep 3001 command and it doesn’t show up).

error log:

[error] 56833#56833: *57 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 110.44.115.155, server: admin.domain.com, request: "POST /api/users/login HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:3001/api/users/login", host: "admin.domain.com", referrer: "http://admin.domain.com/login"

nginx configure file:

server {
        listen 80;
        listen [::]:80;

         root /var/www/admindomain/frontend/build;

        # Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP
        index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

        server_name admin.domain.com www.admin.domain.com;

        location / {
                try_files $uri /index.html;
        }

         location /api {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3001;
            proxy_http_version 1.1;
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }

Hi @heysuneel,

Well, it does seem like the app itself cant start on port 3001. When you launch that app do you see any errros in the Apps logs except in Nginx logs? The Nginx one:

  1. 2022/10/06 18:05:05 [error] 56833#56833: *65 connect() failed (111: Connection refused)

You see should be related to the App not starting so you need to check your APPs log and see if you can find out the error behind it failing to start
