Hello @leonep,

The error message you shared suggests Apache is attempting to serve the application from the account's public_html directory. Node.js applications are served through Passenger and are not required to exist in the public_html directory.

Do you have any Mod_Rewrite rules in the .htaccess file under the account's home directory or under the public_html directory that could be redirecting the request to that location?

Thank you.

thanks for help Michael, i have changed app directory to home (/home/user/nodejsapp).
No .htaccess present in folder. Now i got 404 error not found
thanks

finally everything went well,
I had the wrong path as a newbie ... however in fact the solution was to place the app in the home (/ home / user / nodejsapp)
thanks, congratulations for your kindness and sorry for the trouble!
