Issue Node JS app does not restart after Passenger Restart

[lukegalea16]

Hi,
I have deployed a Node JS application which serves a webpage on the default port 3000 and listens to CoAP requests on port 5683. Daily at midnight the application stops working and I have to re access the webpage again for the app to restart or wait until 7AM/8AM the next day until the app restarts again (I am logging in a txt file when the application restarts). In my Apache logs I am noticing the following happening at around midnight:

This is probably related to my issue.
