Jenkins hangs after executing SSH Command

[stefan.schum...@gmail.com]

Hello

I have a Jenkins job which is supposed to execute a command after uploading to the webserver. It's a simple script which kills the current npm process, writes the date to a file and restarts the server. 

#!/bin/bash

kill $(ps faux | grep server.js | grep node | cut -f2 -d' ')

cd /var/www/chatbot

date >> chatbot.log

nohup npm start &

When I execute it as user www-data on the console everything works fine. Unfortunately this is not the case when running from Jenkins. Jenkins executes the command, receives the following output and then stalls 

until I kill the build manually. How can I force Jenkins to disconnect and consider the build a success after executing server-neustart?

SSH: EXEC: STDOUT/STDERR from command [/usr/local/bin/server-neustart] ...
> NetFed-...@0.1.1 start /var/www/chatbot
> node server.js

Yours Sincerely

Stefan
