Service stopping when closing terminal

[nisak80]

First let me state that I am a beginner on raspberry so might be something obvious (for you guys) that I have not done.
Installed sonos-http-api on raspberry-pi mod B and got all up and running and working controlling my Play:1 by html commands.
But as soon as I close terminal (putty) the service seems to stop.
Connecting to raspberry by putty and starting service will fix problem as long as terminal window is open.

Anyone?

Hi, yes that is how the terminal works in Linux. You can either run it using "screen" or "tmux" which keeps a terminal alive even when you disconnect, or use a process handler for node.js (I recommend this approach). Personally I prefer pm2, see this issue for instructions:
