Start Node JS application when server reboots with pm2

I am trying to use the module pm2 to start my node js app everytime the server boots. I have used the command pm2 startup ubuntu but each time I restart the server, my application is not running and I have to start it manually again.

Any ideas what is causing this issue?

Go to your server directory and use the following commands:

pm2 start <your_app_name.js>
pm2 startup ubuntu
pm2 save

Make sure you do save your processes: 

pm2 start app.js 
pm2 startup ubuntu 
pm2 save

Once you have started the apps and want to keep them on server reboot do: pm2 save
