I have an app that I start with "npm start" I would like to run it in background. This app is hosted on aws EC2.
I tried :
npm start & Doesnt work if I disconnect ssh connection
nohup npm start & Same, it fail if I disconnect ssh connection
I tried to launch with root, or user, doesnt make any difference.
I also tried forever but I didnt manage to launch with npm start like "forever start npm start" doesnt work
Thanks a lot for your help

You have to use docker. You will need to read a lot the documentation, because it's complicated to understand if you dont know it : https://docs.docker.com/get-started/
But it does exactly what you want, running app in background in a container. You can close everything your app will still run.
Enjoy reading !

"screen" command !
