Unable to run on Openshift, Error: listen EACCES

[Gareth Jeanne]

Hi,

Firstly, in local testing loving Keystone.js, got me to a great place really quickly.

Now, i am trying to push my site to Openshift and failing miserably.

I have gotten mongo to connect by adding this to keystone.js:

var mongoDbConnectionString =  process.env.OPENSHIFT_MONGODB_DB_URL || 'mongodb://localhost/my-project';

However i cannot get the thing to run correctly as it seems to be having issues binding to the ip and port i am feeding it on Openshift, i am using the following code:

var host = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_IP || process.env.OPENSHIFT_INTERNAL_IP || "127.0.0.1";

var port = process.env.OPENSHIFT_NODEJS_PORT  || process.env.OPENSHIFT_INTERNAL_PORT || 3000;

Combined with:

'mongo': mongoDbConnectionString,

  'host': host,

  'port':  port,

But i keep getting:

==> app-root/logs/nodejs.log <==

Now i have checked the env via SSH and they seems to be correct, i am getting poot 8080 and what seems like a correct IP address.

I'm obviously missing something simple here, so help greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I've even tried hard coding the values into my keystone.js as taken directly from the env of openshift and i still get the same error.

Very frustrating!

Hey guys,

There were some OpenShift fixes included in our latest release (0.3.3) - can you let me know if they solve the problem for you?

Otherwise it would be great if you could open an issue on our GitHub project with debugging info, and we'll get this fixed up.

Cheers,

Jed.

Will open an issue on github now.

Cheers

Gareth
