I run a node process (websocket server) on an AWS instance. I used to start it like this:
node websocket/index.js
But have recently swiched to using daemontools supervise to run this process so that it respawns if it should quit or die for any reason.
So, I now run the process like this (from within the dir): supervise . &. The following is my ./run file:
#!/bin/sh
node websocket/index.js
This generally works well. When I manually kill -9 the Node process to test out it out, Supervise respawns it correctly.
However, every morning when I check in on things, the Node process and the Supervise process are both dead and nowhere to be found in ps. I confirmed that the system is not rebooting by looking at uptime.
How can I find out why the Supervise and Node processes are dying overnight? And how can I prevent this?
