Unable to deploy my node app on A2Hosting, getting below error:

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/home/eduonli1/portfolio_app/public/index.html'

domain_details

Node deployment page:

Run NPM Install is successful, but Run JS script keeps loading

node_application_deployment

Anyways, when I go the url, I get: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/home/eduonli1/portfolio_app/public/index.html'

But the file exist in the above path:

There were few issues with my deployment:

  1. Path for HTML
  2. Passing a port through CPanel
  3. Editing .htaccess (it's created automatically) Maybe few more. Tweaking these solve the issue.

Since the index.html file is inside html folder, you have set the serving folder wrong

instead of res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "public", "index.html")); , try res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "public", "html", "index.html"));
