Hello we have used in the past strapi alpha version.
And we have got ci/cd in Azure.
in old version we in a pipeline had only npm install --development command
and in release we just run command node server.js

and the project works fine. but we had in the root server.js file

now i have created project with latest version of strapi and it does not have server.js file (it has but only in configuration folder with settings)
so the same release jobs does not work
even if i replace startup command to npm run start it does not help

then i try to login to bash and run it manually

We don’t add in the server.js by default as it’s generally not needed but you can create one at the root of your project:

const strapi = require('strapi');

strapi(/* {...} */).start();
