problems running on aws elastic beanstalk - docs issue

Open davehorton opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Following the instructions at https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/aws

I ran into a couple of problems that might be worthy to note.

First, the docs say to open port 8081 for admin access, but the linked settings.js file from the docs actually listens on port 1880.

Second, its worth noting that when you run eb create you are prompted for a node.js version, and if you choose node 12.x the deployment fails. This is because the provided package.json in the docs page above specifies an engine version of 10.x. So you either need to edit the provided package.json, or make sure to select 10.x when prompted by eb

Hi - thanks for the feedback. I'm going to move this issue over the documentation repository.
