package.json issues with just me ? about node-ticket-manager

Hi macatadobe

short answer: try run node lib/server.js on openshift.com

I haven't used openshift, but from your debug log, I guess the problem might caused by Running node-supervisor with.

Here is the content of npm start: https://github.com/yi/node-ticket-manager/blob/master/package.json#L30

The npm start use nodemon to monitor code change and restart the app everytime code changed. nodemon seems to have same function as node-supervisor, so I guess there might be some conflicts.

And we use npm start only for development. When you deploy to production enviorment, there is no point to use the dev mode. So just run the app by call node lib/server.js

HI yi ,

The openshift requests users to NOT run commands on the server as it violates its authorization etc . Anything which is written in package.json 's main and start tags etc would be run automatically . Users of openshift are allowed to give it a git path from where it can download code and openshift uses the downloaded code and run its package .json

What is the use of "main": "lib/index" ?

When i ran the command you suggested i get the following error

[rd-feedbk.rhcloud.com repo]> node lib/server.js

fork the ticketman repo, and change package.json (line 30):

"start": "node lib/server.js",

[rd-feedbk.rhcloud.com repo]> node lib/server.js

bson is the default data format used by mongodb. It seems binary compilation of bson extension failed on your server

Error: listen EACCES

It error is casued by either "port is used" or "lack of access right"
