If you don't know how to edit files from the command line you're gonna have a hard time.

Anyways you can use nano to do it:

@julian Yeah could of been an older bug, I've not yet updated so will let you know. Thanks for replying so quickly btw.

i am wondering this too. perhaps an easy way to create drop down from the ACP would be great.

@pitaj

Oh nice, have you any traffic Spikes tested? How would you scale if you need to? 1 extra Server with the same specs?

Sounds like apache or some other web server might already be running on that port.

ps aux | grep apache

Is there a way to disable the page account info? So users are not able to see their previous bans, comments, etc.

Is there something which can make this so only moderators + Admins can see this?

@julian well I was looking for a help right now. Already paid for server and domain. And looking for Adsense so that I can earn what I've invested right now. Thanks for contacting though but I am not looking for paid service right now.

@duke said in How do I configure NodeBB setup for Google Cloud VM?:

If you cannot answer these questions yourself then I suggest you install virtualbox on your local machine and get nodebb working locally but following the docs below. Once you are successful with this, you will have learned alot and can then try and deploy on Google infrastructure.

I know you want to deploy straight to production but my way will be quicker in the long run. The next question you will have will be regarding NGINX and how to get it running on port 80. The answers to all your questions are in the docs. The docs are very easy to follow.

I can create the website by using 127.0.0.1 IP but the connection is refused by google's internal IP
(127 is a local ip, you need to provide your internet IP here)

"url": "I typed here my domain which is connected to Google's external IP",
"secret": "the key",
"database": "mongo",
"mongo": {
"host": "Google's internal IP", (should be 127.0.0.1)
"port": "I couldnt find this out?", (4567)
"username": "Is this the nodebb user or the user I created for admin database?", (nodebb user)
"password": "Password", (mongo password for Nodebb database)
"database": "nodebb"

Alright, upgraded all the way up to 1.7.1 and it did fix the issue, thank you very much for your help, the forum is now working fine on the latest version of a Heroku hobby plan.

Hello,
I've created a forum to replace an old phpbb forum. Many of the old users want me to import old posts/thread to the new one. So, I want suggestions how I can do that. Perhaps manually if it's a good solution.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Run npm i commander on 1.7.x and try again.

NodeBB address in use, exiting... Error: listen EADDRINUSE 0.0.0.0:4567

This usually means that NodeBB is already running. Use ./nodebb stop and if you still have the issue look up "kill process on port" with a search engine.
