PM2 reload <name> not being executed via github actions

[Riwajchalise]

I am using github action to create a pipeline and using pm2 as the process manager.

pm2 reload server

When I run the above command locally the process is reloaded. When run it through action runner by running the bash command provided by github action that is - ./svc.sh

I get the following error: 0s Run pm2 restart server /actions-runner/_work/_temp/d8a0a9e1-465d-49aa-a242-6d80da54584f.sh: line 1: pm2: command not found Error: Process completed with exit code 127. However When I run it through ./run.sh the sequence of action including run pm2 reload server executes successfully.

Node: 12.X Pm2: 4.5.4

To anyone who facing the same issue, the problem was is that yarn global bin path wasn't added in actions-runner .path file, so it simply wasn't able to run it.

Added :/home/ubuntu/.yarn/bin to the end of default path and restarted svc.sh solved the issue.

Had the same issue, running the svc.sh with sudo fixed it. Resinstall the service with sudo ./svc.sh install and start it.

It worked for me! Thanks.

maybe duplicate https://github.com/Unitech/pm2/issues/1112

in my case in github actions $PATH env did not match server side (there was no path to npm folder)

the following helped me: connected to the server and entered npm config get prefix

got the following path: /home/ubuntu/.nvm/versions/node/v12.17.0

Then I just wrote the following code at the beginning of the ssh connection script (I use appleboy/ssh-action):

export PATH=$PATH:/home/ubuntu/.nvm/versions/node/v12.17.0/bin (also remember to add /bin)

after these actions, pm2 worked for me

@JoCat this helped get pm2 running on my server. The output from npm config get prefix was completely different, but I used that and followed your way. Everything's working now. Thx.

In ~/.bashrc comment line with return, and now all ssh will be interactively

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
case $- in
