PM2 Heroku Deployment fails to launch application

I am following the directions here: http://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/use-pm2-with-cloud-providers/

Attempting to push a test app to Heroku and getting the error message:

[PM2] Spawning PM2 daemon with pm2_home=/app/.pm2
 2017-12-04T22:35:51.928946+00:00 app[web.1]: [PM2] PM2 Successfully daemonized
 2017-12-04T22:35:51.955730+00:00 app[web.1]: [PM2][ERROR] script not found : /app/dist/server.js
 2017-12-04T22:35:51.955882+00:00 app[web.1]: script not found : /app/dist/server.js

My package.json:

"scripts": {
  "preinstall": "npm install pm2 -g",
  "start": "pm2 start ./dist/server.js -i 1 --attach"
}

This is the folder structure:

I am able to launch this locally by npm start. Any ideas or clues why this is happening?

Solution

  • Ensure that your dist folder is being pushed to git. Check the contents of .gitignore.
