Module.js failed to load server.js

Question

I made a little project using node.js to do a few things with Discord. It worked when I ran it locally with node server.js and npm start. I decided to put my project online to see if a certain feature worked. When I uploaded it, the main javascript file (server.js) that starts everything wasn't found.

I just want to be clear that Module.js is not something I made, but part of the node.js built in modules. It's the thing that makes the require function what it is.

The error in all it's glory:

module.js:472
    throw err;
    ^
Error: Cannot find module '/var/lib/openshift/583e028e2d52714d2500041/approot/runtime/repo/server.js'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:470:15)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:418:25)
    at Module.runMain (module.js:605:10)
    at run (bootstrap_node.js:420:7)
    at startup (bootstrap_node.js:139:9)
    at bootstrap_node.js:535:3

Package.json:

{
  "name": "app",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "description": "test",
  "scripts": { 
    "start": "node --use_strict server.js",
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "main": "server.js",
  "keywords": [
    "discord",
  ],
  "author": "kert",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.14.0",
    "discord.js": "7.0.0"
  },
  "engines" : {
    "node" : "6.9.1"
  }
}

Structure of files:

Discord
└─── .git
└─── node_modules
└─── rbservers <-nothing is used in this folder
└─── app.js
└─── package.json
└─── server.js

If anyone can point out what stupid thing I'm forgetting, pray tell.

My cartridge on OpenShift is the 'Node.js Auto-Updating' one.

Have you installed all the required dependencies using npm install command? — Manish Singh

have you checked permissions for folders ? and installed all packages — AJS

@AJS Yes. I found both dependencies in my node_modules folder. — Kertopher

@ManishSingh To be sure, I just reran that command and published to OpenShift. Nothing changed. — Kertopher

can you show module.js code . On which line exactly you are getting error. And also how you are including the server.js — AJS

Apparently, git wasn't staging/committing all the files in order for them to be pushed. I'll have to look around on how to fix this.

Ugh.
