General Discussion

I have installed NodeBB recently on my Windows 2012 Server running it on IIS 8 with reverse proxy. It all seemed to be working well until some point when it broke. Now when I am logged in as any user, when I click on whatever link on the forum or navigation icon, it starts loading and in 3/4 it stops and hangs there. Meanwhile I can see these errors in the console log: WebSocket connection to 'ws://forum.maguss.org/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=websocket&sid=StguwnFo7hgYtRZ-AAAV' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Incorrect 'Sec-WebSocket-Accept' header value nodebb.min.js?854c9538-dcab-4d8f-adca-92a828835134:12 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'uid' of undefined nodebb.min.js?854c9538-dcab-4d8f-adca-92a828835134:10 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'uid' of undefined nodebb.min.js?854c9538-dcab-4d8f-adca-92a828835134:5 WebSocket connection to 'ws://forum.maguss.org/socket.io/? EIO=3&transport=websocket&sid=e-gZbMkSkfMS-xWrAAAb' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Incorrect 'Sec-WebSocket-Accept' header value nodebb.min.js?854c9538-dcab-4d8f-adca-92a828835134:10 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'uid' of undefined nodebb.min.js?854c9538-dcab-4d8f-adca-92a828835134:5 WebSocket connection to 'ws://forum.maguss.org/socket.io/? EIO=3&transport=websocket&sid=_UIzXZWxyiHmYG4KAAAh' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Incorrect 'Sec-WebSocket- Accept' header value I am not sure what is it related to as I haven't done many changes after starting and what I have done I tried to revert (search and color plugin installs). All the links and navigation works just fine when I am not logged in as an user. I have tried to reboot the server same as nodebb. Any ideas? Your help would be much appreciated! EDIT1: I had my colleague try it too and it works for her just fine even when she is logged in. However another colleague who was logged in at the same time when I was has the same issue as I have. Plus as a bonus when I open admin panel it seems like nothing is there. No custom CSS that I added, no custom headers or anything like that. But the effect of it is applied on the forum itself. For clarification I give an example: I have changed color of all links from standard Darkly skin from cyan to orange in the custom CSS via Admin panel. I got it applied, working just fine. I discovered the issue that I am describing above and when I open admin panel now I can't see any custom CSS nor HTML headers in there. Even if I refresh cache, the Orange links are still on the forum, meaning the custom CSS remained, but it's not showing in the admin panel - custom CSS. And also when I am logged in into forum and I try to open admin panel it gives to me a login form like I wasn't logged in. When I fill it out and submit, it shows white blank page saying: "Forbidden". EDIT2: I tried to reinstall it from scratch with a downgraded version 1.1.1 and it was again working for a while (about an hour) then the same issue appeared. EDIT3: How is it possible that not even official forum functions properly? I added updates, refreshed the page several times also with shortcut: alt+shift+r, but I can't see the updates applied. Though I can see updates when I press edit on the post.

@jiangcaiyang you can use these hooks for plugin activation, deactivation and uninstall action:plugin.activate action:plugin.deactivate action:plugin.uninstall

Many ways to help the NodeBB empire

@chrismccoy install nodebb-plugin-rss and set it up to create topic from rss feeds.

@yariplus Thanks, got your idea!

@psychobunny Custom header is a way, but not good enough, in fact I am writing a plugin which act somewhat like nodebb-plugin-widgets-essential, that is to add one of our custom widget.

@PitaJ yep. I can get ads to reload fine, the ads work as well. But without synchronous ad rendering the UX is somewhat fucked up.

@Jenkler said in NodeBB Usage Statistics: We will win this war in the long run. Just because NodeBB is Awesome I agree. NodeBB is awesome

Looking for more Swedish members to join the group. Feel free to jump right in https://community.nodebb.org/groups/swedish-members I also have a Group chat with the members from the group. Send me a PM and I will add you. It does not matter where you live but Swedish language is a must! Lets do this! List of Swedish forums: https://www.nodebb.se/topic/38/svenska-nodebb-installationer , Add one if you have one

@julian I am volunteer to help, just let me know how.

Supporting theme switch would a nice option.

Bumping this. Just hit me up with any questions. Pricing is variable, but definitely cheaper than any other Redis hosting solution out there. If there is no one interested I will make a posting on Reddit.

@baris Thank you

Startpage done! If there are any more RSS feeds I can you, plz tell me

Cool, all forums update 2 v1.1.2 now. Everything seams to work great

@yariplus thank you so much for your help

@julian I"m only seeing the issue when the calendar is activated. I also did not see any error or issue before reload, everything works even the term of use. Reloading skips the term of use page -even without the calendar.
