@UltraSabreman try this plugin https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-session-sharing

Hi there,

I just did a fresh build of nodebb v1.1.0 and it would not start because [email protected] had been pulled in automatically.

I was able to fix my install by manually installing [email protected] but obviously this isn't ideal.

P.S. The build of the older version of mongodb failed, but it didn't matter in my case since I'm using redis.

make: Entering directory `/usr/src/NodeBB-1.1.0/node_modules/mongodb/node_modules/kerberos/build'
CXX(target) Release/obj.target/kerberos/lib/kerberos.o
In file included from ../lib/kerberos.cc:1:0:
../lib/kerberos.h:5:27: fatal error: gssapi/gssapi.h: No such file or directory
#include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

Regards, Dave.

Solved. Cloudflare was the problem.

@David-Balderston That makes sense. Hope there is a solution.

Hi there 😄

Can you tell us how you submitted your site to Google? Was it the sitemap.xml file via Google Webmaster Tools?

As Chinese Support Portal always be unavailable. Could we change the address to another host ?
I have an ECS server on aliyun(supports robust network env in China)
with 4 cores, 16GB RAM, 2Mbps. And the expiry date is 2017-06-17, so I could guarantee it could serve approximate one year at least.

@pichalite because I will access them in another way.

Hello, welcome to NodeBB!

NodeBB will run perfectly fine on node versions as low as 0.10, there is maybe only a very smaller number of third-party plugins that may require node 4.

You have installed a Node Version Manager called n which does indeed make it easy to change node versions. n does this by copying the files from it's directory to /usr/bin/ when you use it's commands. The reason you had to do this manually probably has to do with a permissions issue.

You are running all your commands as sudo, when none of them should be run with sudo, this can cause permissions issues and is possibly a security risk. Unfortunately, it may be too late to correct this problem. Next time, check here if you run into any issues when not using sudo.

@yariplus Damn, I noobishly had it setup with local but using my Mailgun smtp. I just changed it and the test account which would not receive the p/w recovery email now gets it. Thanks!

@pichalite
Which one?

Every time I restart nodebb, the site will down for about 3 minutes. At first I doubted that the nodebb may have some thing to initialize.
Then I found that even if if restart nginx(not reload), this issue may also occur.

During this 3 minutes, the mongodb and 3 node process eat 100% CPU and most of the memory. The 3 minutes depends on the machine, 2core-4G machine will take 3 minutes and 4core-8G machine will take 1 minutes.

I wonder what was nodebb doing during that time?

@HolyPhoenix you can't do that without modifying code. It's not a feature that would be useful for others either to be included in core.

You should found cookie on your browse with name "express.sid" and delete it.

Not really, those happen if you try to process a registration or login with a used csrf token (csrf tokens are lost if the server restarts, by the way).

We're a humble bunch 😄

I have created a Dockerfile and docker-compose yml file to bring up my forum based commodity institute -- currently locate at forum.bamboosnow.com (pre-alpha as of July 21, 2016)

create NodeBB with Mongo in dockable form for AWS EC2 - jahbini/nodebb-docker-aws

You have enabled MongoDB auth settings + given the right password.

security.authorization must be enabled in mongodb. This must be an auth only issue!

@pichalite Thanks buddy

@julian it's woking now, thank you so much 😉

Thanks, that seems to work!
