Is there an alternative when using supervisor with Gunicorn?

I am creating a Flask app and I using Nginx and Gunicorn inside a virtual enviroment. When I start Gunicorn, gunicorn app:app everything works fine. Then when I activate the Supervisor to keep gunicorn active, it gives me a 500 error. I am reading in my log in var/log/ that is error happens when I try to open a file that should have been created after subprocess.run(command, capture_output=True, shell=True) So this line is not being executed correctly.

Is there an alternative to supervisor to keep my app running when my putty is closed?

Thanks.

  • I found the answer here.

    https://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/deploy.html

    It says that one good option is using Runit.

    EDIT:

    I ended up using the Gunicorn function called --deamon. It is similar and makes everything much simpler.
