Research direction

The issue names the ebs/node sample tutorial and the POST /signup endpoint, but gives no file, error output, or test. Reproduce the deployed sample's signup request, then trace the /signup entry point and compare the failure with the tutorial's expected behavior; done means a new email signup succeeds.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I followed the ebs/node sample tutorial and after successfully deploying, I tried to run the app and get the post("/signup" failure message when entering a new email signup.
