How to run the odata-v4-server on iis

[egarim]

Hi I have a iis setup that is able to run node js files, for that i used this guide https://www.hanselman.com/blog/InstallingAndRunningNodejsApplicationsWithinIISOnWindowsAreYouMad.aspx

after the iis setup is done, basically I just need to point the browser to the url of the js file containing the server like this "http://localhost/node/helloworld/hello.js"

but i the case of the odata server to start it, I use the command npm start. so for me is not clear to which js file should I point to start the saver as I do when I use node in iis

@egarim: you should target the index.js (lib/ts/index.js in the examples) or the main entry file for your server and should use the correct port by using process.env.PORT. odata-v4-server examples are using fixed port 3000. Although I don't know how IIS manages the URL after the script name to work with OData URLs.

Well so far I have been able to serve really basic files

Check this url

http://tinker.sv/node/node/lib/hello.js

the content of that file is this

var http = require('http');

http.createServer(function (req, res) {

res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'});

res.end('Hello, world! [helloworld sample; iisnode version is ' + process.env.IISNODE_VERSION + ', node version is ' + process.version + ']');

}).listen(process.env.PORT);

A really simple node js script

But when I try to run the server as you advised me

http://tinker.sv/node/node/lib/index.js

I got this error

I’m going to contact the creator of the iis node module and let you know what he answer
