Deploying a Pippo webapp on a Debian server

[Avarel]

Hello everyone,
I recently got into learning web frameworks. I'm currently testing out Pippo and developing a web-app using it. However, I seem to not be able to bind the Pippo/Jetty server to listen to port 80, while other port works fine (3000).

Would someone point me in the right direction to deploy this?

I know that you cannot open a port below 1024 without admin privileges. Please try to run your application with sudo.

The response when I ran sudo java -jar PlaygroundSpark-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar. Still does not seem to work.

Can you run the application in debug mode (with -Dpippo.mode=dev on command line) to have more info?

Not sure why it still says PROD.

You must put -D... after java word.
Nevermind, your issue it's not about Pippo. Mayby, the below link [1] can help you to resolve this problem.
In production you should use a web server like apache or nginx that runs on port 80 in front of your application that runs on 8338, for example.

The Nginx solution seemed to work for me in that link, thanks!.
