I did all the steps but when I run the last command (pm2 show app) it outputs (status|errored).

@Mavera07 What do you see when you run the following command:
[~] sudo INSTANCE_NAME=mynameis RPC_HOST=localhost WS_SERVER=http://79.123.177.145:3001 WS_SECRET=63r98c3uz0cyg68v RPC_PORT=8545 LISTENING_PORT=3000 /Users/user_name/.npm-packages/bin/pm2 start $my_path/app.js

Output should be something like this:

There are some dependency packages, so you need to use npm install command in eth-net-intelligence-api folder, then it works well.

@Mavera07 What do you see when you do: cat /home/sahin/.pm2/logs/app-error-0.log. The port you are listening may also be allocated, can you try with different port number for the LISTENING_PORT?

(npm install) command fixed my problem. Thanks.
By the way, I stated name 'mynameis' when I first tried and now it is fixed but 'mynameis' remains in the list as offline.

@Mavera07 do: sudo pm2 delete app , it should return an empty table and "mynameis" should be removed. Than re-run the code with the name you want to use.
