What is the correct syntax to run the node created by the meteor packet using forever?

In documents, the procedure for launching a meteorite on your own server is to run

meteor bundle bundle.tgz

Then extract this archive.

 tar -xzvf bundle.tgz

Then start the node server

 MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/<dbname> PORT=<server_port> ROOT_URL=http://sub.example.com/ node bundle/main.js

I try to use forever to support the node server, but when I run the following command (features are hidden), the eternal process does not return, and I need CTRL + C to return to the command line - very unusual.

 MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/<dbname> PORT=<server_port> ROOT_URL=http://sub.example.com/ forever bundle/main.js

If I add an ampersand to start the process in the background, I will return to the command line and everything will look fine, but it will not generate any logs or pid files forever, and ultimately the process will die forever.

This works for me:

 export MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/<dbname> export PORT=<server_port> export ROOT_URL=http://sub.example.com/ forever start bundle/main.js

This is my script run, called from rc.local:

 #/bin/sh cd /home/nodeapp/ export MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/nodeapp export PORT=80 export ROOT_URL=http://$(hostname)/ export METEOR_SETTINGS=$(<settings.json) forever start bundle/main.js

Hope this helps someone.
