Issue After migration tool using for nodejs server

ergunaksoy

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Debian 11
Plesk version and microupdate number
latest
After I migrated my nodejs server with migration tool of plesk, it gives this error :


AH01276: Cannot serve directory /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.html,index.cgi,index.pl,index.php,index.xhtml,index.htm,index.shtml) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive

Node.js is installed, and in the previous plesk host, node.js web was running successfully, what could be a problem here?
 
Hello first,
Understanding the Error:

  • An Apache Web server could not find a suitable file to serve as the default page in this directory.
  • It's not finding any files with the extensions listed (index.html, index. cgi, etc.)
  • It is also prevented from automatically generating a directory list by the configuration.
Troubleshooting Steps:

  1. Review Server Configuration:
  • DirectoryIndex directive: Ensure index.js is included in the DirectoryIndex directive for your domain's configuration, usually found in Apache virtual host files (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*.conf). Add index.js if missing.
  • Options directive: Check for Options -Indexes or similar directives that might be preventing directory listings. If necessary, remove or modify them.
  1. Verify Node.js Application Structure:
    • Confirm that index.js is present in the /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/ directory.
    • Ensure the file is readable by the web server user (usually www-data or apache).
    • If your application uses a different entry point file, adjust the DirectoryIndex directive accordingly.
  2. Check Node.js Handler Configuration:
    • Ensure the Node.js handler is properly assigned in Plesk for your domain.
    • Review the handler configuration to verify it points to the correct Node.js application file or directory.
  3. Test Node.js Functionality:
    • Try accessing a specific Node.js route (e.g., domain.com/test-route) to isolate whether the issue is with the default index file or Node.js itself.
    • If routes work but the index file doesn't double-check the index file path and permissions.
Hope this is helpful.
