How to set up and run your Node.js application on an Ubuntu server using Apache and NVM, follow these steps:

1. Install NVM (Node Version Manager)
    1.1 Install bash:
    -------
    curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash

    1.2 Source NVM:
    ----------
    source ~/.bashrc


    1.3 Verify Installation:
    -----------
    nvm --version

2. Install Node.js
--------
  2.1 Install the desired Node.js version:
    nvm install node # or nvm install <version>
  2.2 Set the default Node.js version:
    nvm alias default node
    
3. Clone Your Node.js Repository
  Clone the repository to your server:
    git clone https://github.com/your-repository-url.git
    cd your-repository-directory
  Install dependencies:
    npm install
    
4. Configure Apache
  Install Apache and libapache2-mod-proxy-http:
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-proxy-html
  Enable required Apache modules:
    sudo a2enmod proxy
    sudo a2enmod proxy_http
    sudo a2enmod rewrite
5. Create a virtual host configuration:
    5.1 Create a new file for your site configuration:
        sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/yourdomain.com.conf
    5.2 Add the following configuration:
        <VirtualHost *:80>
            ServerName yourdomain.com

            ProxyPass / http://localhost:3000/
            ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3000/

            ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
            CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
        </VirtualHost>
    5.3 Enable the site and restart Apache:
        sudo a2ensite yourdomain.com.conf
        sudo systemctl restart apache2
        
5. Run Your Node.js Application

    npm start # or node app.js
    
    Additional Tips
      Ensure that your application is listening on localhost or 127.0.0.1 and the correct port (e.g., 3000).
      Consider using a process manager like pm2 to keep your application running:
        npm install pm2 -g
        pm2 start app.js
        pm2 startup
        pm2 save
        
        
This setup should help you get your Node.js application running on Apache with NVM on your Ubuntu server. Let me know if you need any further assistance!
