How can I get pm2 to use my ecosystem.config.js file on reboot?

My ecosystem.config.js file loads my environment great with this command:

pm2 start ecosystem.config.js

When I run any of these command, my environment is reloaded just fine:

pm2 reload myapp
pm2 restart myapp
pm2 reload ecosystem.config.js
pm2 restart ecosystem.config.js

Then I try to make sure I get my environment back after a reboot. If I run pm2 startup I get this:

sudo env PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin /usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 startup systemd -u me --hp /home/me

After running that command, I can reboot my machine and my application is restarted automatically. However, I am missing my environment from the ecosystem.config.js file. Why? How do I make sure the environment from my ecosystem.config.js environment is loaded when the machine is rebooted? Thanks.

May be worth sharing that a file named ecosystem.js, even if empty, needs to exist on the system in the user's home path so that pm2 can load it.

Dont forget to save your config! pm2 save

In case you want pm2 on startup with changed logs path:

pm2 delete all
pm2 start ecosystem.js
pm2 save
pm2 startup

I had the same issue. After executing the command suggested by pm2 startup, I found I had to first run pm2 delete all, then restart using pm2 start ecosystem.config.js. My environment is now loading as expected after rebooting.
