Your MongoDB user does not have appropriate privileges to access database info.

@Bri you will have to change core I think.

@BuildCup Hello there! We've responded to you via email. Thanks for your business! 😃

Hi i'm able to install, see different categories in the home page.
Now how can i add some pictures in the homepage ?

If i need to change the code, what file will that be, i do have some node.js experience.

Thanks !

@pichalite I cleared my browser cache and now it works! Thanks for all the help.

Thanks @rod and @tqwhite for helping @Cyb3r with this 😄

Glad we have you on the community!

What I mean is -- we cannot fix issues if we cannot trigger them ourselves. We need a consistent set of reproduction steps (e.g. "go to this page, log in, press enter, navigate to this page, post.") in order to confirm that this is a bug and develop a fix. Otherwise if we cannot reproduce it, then it may be a configuration problem with your install, and we cannot fix that for you.

It has been added back to the main template in Persona https://community.nodebb.org/topic/8790/categories-tpl-category-tpl-topics-tpl-and-motd-in-persona

actually, derp, nevermind, i see https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/4669 already takes care of this

Prelude: Last year, ran nodeBB under a root user just fine. many months later, system crashed and had to wipe the server. This time on installation, on a new server, ran into various errors. Was told not to run nodeBB under the root user, so --

Creating a new user, and pulling and installing a different instance of nodeBB I am now running into errors with npm install (even using the global command) and generally overall.

Is this still due to file permission issues regarding the first time setting up nodeBB on the new server? Or is something else to blame?

When utilizing nodeBB on the new user, npm gives errors such as not finding modules (even tried removing node_modules directory and doing npm -g install), and when I do get the npm install to not crash, running any ./nodebb command still gives errors.

Does anyone know the issue at hand? I'm thinking of wiping the server, and giving it one more try via not using root from the start to see if the errors can be avoided altogether - if not I may just move on to a different forum system.

Thanks in advance!

@paviro said in Missing icons / broken CSS:

How is it that only some of the default skins actually work? 😕

Obviously not all skins are tested with persona.

If you're interested in tackling this issue, note that the UglifyJS version we use may not produce working source maps.

The source map also has to be able to access libraries from node_modules/, so that's another complication.

The write api actually provides the authentication mechanism, so you can file it against that repo.

And, as an admittedly snarky aside, while you're tuning up your custom CSS, add this:

So that the error and alert window is in the middle of the page and noticeable to your clientele. It's normal position at the bottom right used to cause me fits. By the time you had scanned the page to find it, it fades away.

Just found this tool and everything has been easy and smooth to install but...

But how do I replace the upload path with the s3 base url instead of the the site.
I know the plugin is working as I can see the files hitting my s3 bucket.

Many thanks --

Casey

@yariplus Thanks !

@exodo oh, I tried to drag the names, now realised I needed to drag the image.. Thank you 😄

Final update, it worked on the production server!! so now our forum is working properly sending emails the Linux way on a Windows Server OS, quite nice I would say, just as a side note our forum is actually really small in number of users, as it is an internal forum, so I can't assure this setup will work out to other forum's expectations or needs, also I would like to add that this shouldn't be the way to do it on Windows as it is kind of a weird way to handle it so in later versions it would be nice to see it reworked or polished for Windows environments (especially because it looks like the program used to simulate sendmail on Windows is no longer receiving maintenance).

😆 @pichalite Thanks for the quick save 😄
