Hello, as the title of this new discussion, how do I keep laravel-echo-server running even if I close the terminal. I'm using Forge and Digital Ocean.

Thanks in advance!

You can use PM2 to manage and provision Node.js processes. there is also forever.

@logaretm I installed PM2 and run

pm2 start laravel-echo-server

It started but couldn't connect to the server from the frontend.

Did I miss something?

I'm not sure, but you should install it globally with sudo privileges otherwise it won't be able to maintain the process.

sudo npm install -g pm2

you can also run pm2 list to check if the process is running, if it is running then probably the problem is elsewhere. sorry I couldn't help more.
