I am trying to host a nodeJS app that uses socket.io on OpenShift. I have created the app on openshift, used git clone to get the repo - I then edited server.js to look like this:
#!/bin/env node
var express = require('express');
var app = express()
, server = require('http').createServer(app)
, io = require('socket.io').listen(server);
var osipaddress = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_IP;
var osport = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_PORT;
app.set('port', osport || 8000);
app.set('ipaddress', osipaddress);
/*var pf = require('policyfile').createServer();
pf.listen(10843, function(){
console.log(':3 yay')
});*/
server.listen(app.get('port'), app.get('ipaddress'), function(){
console.log('Express server listening on port ' + app.get('port'));
});
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/'));
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.sendfile(__dirname + '/Startup.html');
});
io.configure(function() {
io.set('transports', ['websocket','xhr-polling']);
io.set('flash policy port', 10843);
//io.set('log level', 1);
});
io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) {
socket.on('message', function (data) {
console.log(data);
});
});
I then used git commit / git push to make the changes.
When I run rhc tail testapp the output does not produce any errors:
/Users/Eamon/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0/gems/highline-1.6.21/lib/highline/system_extensions.rb:230: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr/local/bin in PATH, mode 040777

info: socket.io started
Express server listening on port 8080
However, when I visit the site - I still see the initial welcome page (as if I had not pushed any code) - http://testapp-eamonbenproject.rhcloud.com/
Any ideas? As I am not really getting errors, I am not sure where to start.
