What runs perfectly well locally in homestead does not seem to be right for forge.

node -v
v0.10.37
npm -v
1.4.28

my socket.js

    var app = require('express')();
    var server = require('http').Server(app);
    var io = require('socket.io')(server);
    var redis = require('redis');
     
    server.listen(3000, function(){
        console.log('Listening on Port 3000');
    });

    io.on('connection', function (socket) {
     
      console.log("new client connected");
      var redisClient = redis.createClient();
      redisClient.subscribe('message');
     
      redisClient.on("message", function(channel, message) {
        console.log("mew message in queue "+ message + "channel");
        socket.emit(channel, message);
      });
     
      socket.on('disconnect', function() {
        redisClient.quit();
      });
     
    });

I guess it has to do with paths, while

node socket.js 

works in homestead, on my envoyer/forge I have to do

current/socket.js 

to start the server, but on the channel connection I get

GET https://mydomain.com:3000/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=polli... net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
