Can I host a Nuxt app on any website host with Node.js support?
☁️deploy
Hi! I recently started building my first Vue/Nuxt application, and I'm looking at where to host it. I'm already paying for hosting for my website on a host who supports Node.js, so I was hoping to deploy the application there. I'm very much learning this as I go, so there might be some really obvious rookie mistakes in here. Don't hesitate to call me out on those.
I've built the application and uploaded the contents of .output to the root of my subdomain (server/, public/, and nitro.json), then ran the Node.js installer. It successfully detected the package.json and went on to install everything without a hitch. The server seems to be running correctly, but when I visit the site in my browser I get a 503 Server Error. It does show my favicon, so something's coming through.
One thing I'm confused about: The root of my subdomain already included a public_html folder. I've tried putting my public folder next to that folder and inside that folder, and putting the contents of my public folder in the public_html folder. None of these worked.
I've attached a screenshot of the Node.js dashboard om my host.
Is there something obvious I'm doing wrong, is this just impossible, or something in between? Thanks in advance for all assistance!
