Hi there,

Change your start command to npm start (or node server.js) node start will try and run a start module, which doesn’t exist.

}

can you tell me what’s the problme

Hi there,

Please note I can’t see your code base, so I’m guessing the answer here. Your package.json has node app.js for its start script, but on Render you are running node api.js for you start command. Do you have a api.js script in your repo?
