Run "pnpm dev &" seems not working

Hi, I recently find this amazing blog template.
I followed the teaching article and deployed on oracle vps and everything is OK.

However, when I tried to run "pnpm dev" as background service, something seems weird.
After I run "pnpm dev &" , console looks the same as previous image.

As result, I can not access the website any more.

Anyone know what could be happening?

My env:

• System:
  • OS: Linux 5.19 Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS 22.04.2 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)

My first attempt was trying to reproduce your situation.

pnpm dev &

  VITE v4.1.4  ready in 2041 ms

  ➜  Local:   http://localhost:5173/
  ➜  Network: (Omitted)

Right after, check the job state.

jobs -l

Job     Group   CPU     State   Command
1       32655   2%      stopped pnpm dev &

I cannot get it to work as background process this way.

My second attempt was to try pm2.

This works, I can run pnpm dev as background process.
This is how I did it.

Install pm2 using npm globally.

npm i pm2 -g

Run pnpm dev with pm2. (be sure to be in the right directory)

pm2 start "pnpm dev" --name QWER

Check jobs details, Ctrl+C to leave

pm2 monit

See realtime logs for all jobs

pm2 logs

Delete job, you can see Job id in pm2 ls or pm2 monit

pm2 delete [JobID]

Thanks for your response !!
I also provide a tricky solution here

1. I write a shellscript : It will check whether the pid of pnpm alive ,cd blog folder and run "pnpm dev"
2. Put it into cron job and check it periodically.

*/2 * * * * /root/start_up_rblog.sh

And it works 🙃
