Forever not working with sailsjs

votes

I've installed forever using 

npm install forever -g

I've set config in modeljs to safe

 migrate: 'safe'

Still when I run 

forever -w start app.js

I get this

warn: --minUptime not set. Defaulting to: 1000ms warn: --spinSleepTime not set. Your script will exit if it does not stay up for at least 1000ms info: Forever processing file: app.js

I dont want to stop and start my app using sails lift everytime I'm making a change. I'm using sails version of 0.11.

These are just warnings, and you can safely ignore them. However it is odd that you are getting them, I would try setting it like this. forever start --minUptime 1000 --spinSleepTime 1000 app.js It appears it should still be running even with those warnings you have, are you sure it isn't? Another thing to try is node app.js --prod --port 80 and see if you get any errors running it that way, because forever will run it with node. - Adam William Larson
Tried your solution with the minUptime and spinSleepTime, it removed the warnings but no luck with restarting the app on change. So in the end installed sails-hook-autoreload which did the job. - TarunJadhwani

Used sails-hook-autoreload in the end which did the same job with ease.
