Ok, give me a few hours I back up everything then we reset it. Don't worry, I won't re-upload the files. Just need them for reference as I recreate everything

Thanks a lot ! I have moved the files. I am going to bed now but will carry on first thing tomorrow

Ok, let's leave Passenger on for your main domain so you can play around with that. I created 2 subdomains for you: wss.citadel.helioho.st which we'll use for your websocket, and control.citadel.helioho.st that we'll use for your start/stop/logs index.sh script. The new domains should start working in about 100 minutes or so. You can go ahead and move the .htaccess file and index.sh file from /home/citadel.helioho.st/httpdocs/bot_control/ to /home/citadel.helioho.st/control.citadel.helioho.st/ We'll work on this more when the domains are ready.

I am unsure if there is something else I can do from my side ? You said : we need to either add another subdomain to access /bot_control/ or you'll need to disable Passenger. I am down for either, but as I mentioned, I am lost. Is there a tutorial I can follow for any one of these options ? I'll be glad to stop bothering you, I just don't know what i'm supposed to do next

No external ports are available, and we don't open them in the firewall on Morty, Tommy, or Johnny. Internal ports are basically all available, but they can't be accessed remotely without proxying them through Apache or Nginx because the firewall blocks the direct connection. There are 65535 internal ports, and only a handful are in use by other users. Right now Passenger is blocking access to everything on your domain, so we need to either add another subdomain to access /bot_control/ or you'll need to disable Passenger.

I thought the whole point was that no port was available ;( that's why i didn't try further I switched to 8080 and it works now indeed : server.js is running. Stop Current memory usage: 62.12 MB Estimated 24 hour usage: 87.36 GB - Check Load However on the main game itself : network.js:3 WebSocket connection to 'wss://citadel.helioho.st/' failed: setupWebSocket @ network.js:3 (anonymous) @ game.js:39 Is that where nginx/apache are needed ? I've been able to stop the script as well server.js is not running. Start - Check Load Logs: Clear Logs - Full Logs [2025-06-27 21:48:01] Stop action requested for server.js.

Switch to another port other than 3000. Obviously someone else is using 3000.

thank you, it seems to work ! now i'm blocked by the port issue we discussed, but i'm guessing that's expected ? Only need the apache/nginx redirect that was mentioned in the FAQ ? Or am i forgetting something [2025-06-27 19:35:41] Starting server.js.

I have not been able to start and stop the websocket from the /bot_control/index.sh script, it is looking for the node install folder and i don't know where to indicate it. it is looking in /usr/local/bin/node, but not finding it Could you please tell me what i need to change in that bash script to make it work with node.js ? In its initial state, it seemed to be looking for a python file only apologies for taking your time, i have been trying all day

Passenger automatically kills your Node.js server after 5-10 minutes without any page hits. That's why I was recommending starting and stopping your websocket with the /bot_control/index.sh script if you want it to run for more than 5 minutes.

Hi , I am not sure if that's possible to have another whitelisted IP address to connect to FTP from a Azure server? How can I request it? Thanks

I THINK i managed to adapt the bash script to start the node.js server.js script using passenger, but it feels like there is not much i can do now, since ports are not open to me... I don't know how to stop the node using passenger though. Can you please help me with the next steps ? server.js is not running.

How are you trying to upload the file?

I use 50/1000 mb storage on tommy server, but I can't upload 100 mb zip file

Ok so : I've followed all the steps to start and stop the bot, but i've replaced the .py bot by server.js (my server script, placed in root directory). I've added the same permissions. Is that what was expected ? Unfortunately citadel.helioho.st/bot_control/ only shows : Cannot GET /bot_control/ i've also tried the full adress : console error : bot_control/:1 GET https://citadel.helioho.st/httpdocs/bot_control/ 404 (Not Found) The tutorial said to check the bot logs but i cannot find them in the bot_control dir. There are logs in the log dir, but i don't know which ones are the bot one. Am I on a wrong track ?

By the way this will feel like the smallest step for you, but the html/js part of the website actually works now on heliohost ! even if the server doesn't

No I want to learn ! But I thought you wanted me to rewrite my project in Python and felt overwhelmed lol I'm on it now !

I've added that domain to your account for you. Please note that it may take up to 2 hours for the domain change to take effect. If after a full 2 hours it doesn't work on your side, please make sure you clear your web browser cache: https://wiki.helionet.org/Clear_Your_Cache Edited to add: Moodle is not offered on Tommy or Johnny because our load testing of a very basic Moodle site indicated that it would undoubtedly get accounts on Tommy and Johnny suspended for exceeding the 200 GB memory limit, or the 10,000 CPU limit: https://wiki.helionet.org/Common_Software_Load It was wrongly appearing back in Plesk for Tommy and Johnny accounts because of a recent Plesk update, but will be resolved soon. Moodle is available on Morty or on a VPS.

Thanks! I change the SQLALCHEMY_ENGINE_OPTIONS to 'pool_pre_ping': True and this solved the issue.

We don't mind helping you learn, and walking you through it. But if you refuse to learn we're not going to set it up for you, and you should probably just use a VPS. Let us know if you have any questions.

Okkk I think I understand what you're expecting now. I will try again first thing tomorrow

1. create domain moodletask.helioho.st Thank you. User: dramadan

You can increase your storage space at https://heliohost.org/dashboard/storage/ Are you trying to backup the emails on your Morty account, and send them somewhere else?
