Hello, I am trying to deploy a Node.js application on my account (domain: 520520.helioho.st), but it fails to start. The frontend application shows a generic "Failed to connect to server" error. The most critical issue is that the Node.js logs in the Plesk panel are completely empty, which makes it impossible to debug.
We have simplified the backend code to the absolute minimum to diagnose the issue, and it still fails to run. Here is the test code for index.js:
const http = require('http');
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'text/plain' });
res.end('Server is working!');
});
const PORT = process.env.PORT;
if (PORT) {
server.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(`--- Test server listening on port ${PORT} ---`);
});
} else {
console.error('Error: PORT environment variable not set.');
}
My package.json only includes {"dependencies": {}} for this test, so there are no external dependencies.
My Node.js configuration in Plesk is:
Application Root: /httpdocs
Application Startup File: index.js
Even with this extremely simple setup, the server does not run and no logs are generated. This suggests there might be an issue with the Node.js environment on the server itself.
Could you please check if the Node.js service is running correctly for my account and why it is not generating any logs?
Thank you.
