service listening on http://localhost:3000 with undefined Environment

[dustbro]

I just followed the install videos (which where very helpful!) but run into issues when installing on Ubuntu 20.04.
I hit an error when running nodemon user.server.js about NODE_ENV in /socioboard-api/Common/Sequelize-cli/models/index.js
I used export NODE_ENV=development whenever needed throughout the install, but NODE_ENV was set to production.
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'production';

I changed this value to development and the server started, but with an "undefined Environment" error.
service listening on http://localhost:3000 with undefined Environment!

Navigating to the webpage localhost:3000 triggers a response from the server:
GET /explorer/ 304 1.736 ms - - GET /explorer/ 200 0.256 ms - -
but the webpage is blank... probably because the environment is wrong.
Where should I look to correct this issue?

Hi @dustbro

if you're using Linux OS - export NODE_ENV=development and then run it.

[dustbro]

export NODE_ENV=development

Thanks for the reply! I'm using this already before I run it, but still get undefined Environment.
And I don't see anything helpful in the user log.
Where else can I check the environment variable?

I had to start nodemon server as root for the environment to change.

[dustbro]

I'm able to get the proper environment running
service listening on http://localhost:3000 with development Environment!

but the Swagger webpage is empty. Do I need to change localhost in socioboard config to IP address instead?
the server response is:
GET /explorer/ 200 0.229 ms - -
Which I think is normal?

Hi @dustbro

Please run npm run swagger to generate swagger

and restart the service with rs or manually and use reload the web page

[dustbro]

I get the same result after restarting the service.
