Introduction

Hosting a Node.js application on cPanel is an easy and straightforward process. This guide will walk you through the steps to get your Node.js application up and running on cPanel.

First, you’ll need to log in to your cPanel account. Once you’re logged in, scroll down to the Software section and click on the Setup Node.js App icon. After clicking this icon, you’ll be taken to the Node.js selector page, where you can select the version of Node.js that best suits your application’s needs. Once you’ve selected a version of Node.js, you can proceed to deploy your application using CloudLinux Application Manager or create it manually using the Node.js Selector interface.

The CloudLinux Application Manager allows you to deploy both Node.js and Python Core applications quickly and easily with just a few clicks of the mouse. If you prefer to create and configure your application manually, then you’ll need to install the Node.js Selector first before proceeding with creating your application’s directory and configuring it accordingly for use with cPanel users.

Once your application is deployed or created, cPanel users have the option to register their own applications via their cPanel account which allows them to access their own version of your application for testing or development purposes without affecting the main version of your application hosted on cPanel.

This guide will walk you through all of the steps necessary for hosting a Node.js application on cPanel, from logging in to selecting a version of Node.js and deploying or creating an app to registering an app for cPanel users so they can access their own versions of your app without affecting the main version hosted on cPanel.

Log in to cPanel

To log in to cPanel, open your web browser and go to the URL provided by your hosting provider. Enter your username and password to log in. Once you have logged in, you can scroll down the cPanel homepage and click on the Setup Node.js App icon located within the SOFTWARE section. You will then be taken to a page where you can configure various settings for your Node.js app. From here, you can set up your Node.js app and deploy it on cPanel using CloudLinux Application Manager.

Scroll Down to the Software Section

To scroll down to the Software Section in cPanel, first log in to the server via SSH as a cPanel user. Once logged in, you will be presented with the cPanel homepage.

Finally, you need to create an application directory relative to your home directory so that all of your app files will be stored in one place for easy access and management. To do this, run the command “mkdir ~/appname” from the command line where “appname” is the name of your application directory. Once you have created the directory for your app files, you can now start working with them from within the directory or through FTP access from another computer.

Configure Node.js App

Once you have selected the Setup Node.js App icon in the SOFTWARE section of cPanel, the Node.js App Configuration page will appear. On this page, you will be able to configure settings for your Node.js application, such as its version, domain name, root directory and environment type.

To select a Node.js version for your application, use the Version dropdown menu and choose the version that works best for your application. You can also choose which domain your application should be associated with by using the Domain dropdown menu.

The Root Directory field is where you will enter the directory path of your application’s root directory relative to your home directory. This should be the same as the directory you created when setting up your application in cPanel earlier.

Environment Type allows you to decide what type of environment your application will run in – either Production or Development. Generally, production environments are used for applications that are already ready to be deployed and development environments are used when testing new features or making changes to existing ones.

When all settings are configured correctly, click Create to create your Node.js App and activate it on your cPanel account. Your app should now be ready to use!

Deploy Node.js App

Once the Node.js application is configured, it can be deployed using the cPanel Application Manager.

The application will then be deployed to the application’s directory that was created in the previous step. After the deployment is complete, a success message will appear and you should be able to access your Node.js application from the URL provided.

Create the Application’s Directory

Once you have selected the Setup Node.js App option, you can create the application’s directory. You can call the directory anything you want. This is where your app’s code files will live. Create a file called app.js in this directory, which will be served as your main page. You can add other files to the same directory or create separate directories for other files. Once the directory and files have been created, you can move onto configuring your Node.js App.

Cpanel Users Can Register Node.js Applications

Cpanel users can register Node.js applications and associate them with a domain in Application Manager. In order to do this, users must first log in to their cPanel account and scroll down to the SOFTWARE section. Once there, they must click on the Setup Node.js App icon. On the Node.js selector page, users can select the version of Node.js they wish to install, as well as the environment.

Once Node.js is installed, users can create a new application from the Create App option in Application Manager. They will then be asked to provide a name for their application and assign a domain or subdomain to it. Users can also configure the version of Node.js they wish to use for their application from the ‘Options’ tab in Application Manager.

Once the application is created, users can deploy it by clicking on ‘Deploy’ in Application Manager. Once deployed, users can access their application by visiting its domain or subdomain in a web browser. Cpanel users can also manage their applications via Application Manager, allowing them to start and stop the application, view errors and logs, and more.

To host a Node.js app on cPanel, you’ll need to follow these steps:

1. First, make sure your cPanel account includes Node.js support. You can check this by logging into cPanel and navigating to the Software section. If Node.js is listed, you have access to it. If not, you may need to contact your hosting provider to enable it.

2. Next, you’ll need to create a Node.js app. You can do this using a framework like Express, or by creating a simple script that runs your Node.js code. You’ll also need to specify which version of Node.js you’re using.

3. Once you have your Node.js app ready, you’ll need to upload it to your cPanel account. You can do this using cPanel’s file manager or an FTP client.

4. In cPanel, navigate to the Setup Node.js App section. Here, you can set up a new Node.js app by specifying the app’s name, the app’s entry point file, and the version of Node.js you’re using.

5. After you’ve set up your Node.js app, you can start it by clicking the “Run” button. This will start your app on a specified port, which you can access using your domain name and the port number.

6. Finally, you’ll need to configure your domain name to point to your Node.js app. You can do this by creating a new subdomain or adding a new record to your DNS settings.

To host a Node.js app on cPanel’s terminal, you can follow these steps:

1. First, login to your cPanel account and navigate to the Terminal icon under the Advanced section.
2. In the terminal, navigate to the directory where you want to host your Node.js app using the cd command. You can create a new directory using the mkdir command if necessary.
3. Upload your Node.js app files to the directory using the scp or rsync commands. For example, you can use the scp command to upload your files to the server:
4. scp -r /path/to/your/app username@yourserver:/path/to/your/directory
5. Replace username and yourserver with your cPanel username and server address respectively.
6. Once your app files are uploaded, navigate to the directory and install any required dependencies using the npm install command.
7. Start your Node.js app using the node command followed by the name of your app’s main file. For example, if your app’s main file is index.js, you can start the app with:
8. node index.js
9. By default, the app will run on port 3000. You can access your app by visiting your server’s IP address or domain name followed by the port number, for example: http://yourserver.com:3000.
10. To run your app continuously, you can use a process manager like PM2. To install PM2, run:
11. npm install -g pm2    Once installed, start your app with PM2 using the command:
12. pm2 start index.js   This will start your app in the background, and will automatically restart the app if it crashes. You can view your app’s logs, monitor performance, and manage other app-related tasks using PM2 as well.
13. That’s it! Your Node.js app should now be hosted on cPanel’s terminal and accessible through your domain name or server IP address.
