Please help me, I can't install
-
@abcabc123 resolv.conf won't survive a reboot in terms of changes as its considered deprecated. You might want to test this first.

Let's use it for the time being, you can help me install the nodebb forum first. If you can fix it, by the way help me fix it thoroughly, thanks
I have mentioned to you in chat several times that it could probably have been fixed if you would have provided the web console access for the VPS. Generally VPS providers have a terminal client access for the VPS configured.
Since that information was never provided it stopped me from being able to help you as I could not check the status of the VPS upgrade instance.
If you are going to want people to help you, you are going to have to be willing to provide the information they ask for to do so. Even installing something like TeamViewer on your desktop to allow them to remote access your system while you control the VPS console login would have worked.This is why I don't think you got the issue fixed.

It is highly possible a firewall locked me out and if that's what it is, the web console access is needed or you need to have the knowledge to fix the issue yourself.

Ubuntu 24.04 gave up resolv.conf, what should I do, restart the server, still can't ping
-
You should have console access from your VPS providers web console.
Log in and look and see what is set there.
It should not be dependent upon outside connectivity other than to your VPS provider. -
I'm logged in because I'm new and don't know how to deal with this.

@abcabc123 It will do - I did tell you this would happen
resolv.confis deprecated. -
@abcabc123 this is being resolved over at https://sudonix.org. Please avoid posting in multiple locations as this just adds confusion and removes value.

I need the installation method, install nodebb using the CloudPanel control panel, I don't know the method.

There is no "click a button and install" option available AFAIK.
But there is fantastic Ubuntu installation documentation available on this site itself (then centOS one is lacking sadly but I may grab another VSP to play with AlmaLinux and NodeBB on).
https://docs.nodebb.org/installing/os/ubuntu/You do have to be familiar with working on the command line of Linux (like in the old days of DOS) as it does make some assumptions about the knowledge level of the installer.
If you aren't, then it will be difficult for you to even with cut & paste use as you will probably run into issues.
And if you aren't, then it will probably be difficult to keep the site up and running.
If someone has gotten it up and running for you, it is your job to keep it running usually. Most people are not going to volunteer to maintain your VPS instance for you. That is usually a paid option with many VPS providers.
If you are not familiar with Linux, I encourage you to install it on spare PC (if you have one) to play with, or if you have a decent PC for use then install Oracle VirtualBox on it and set up a Ubuntu instance in it.
I do encourage you to use Ubuntu 24.04LTS if your CloudPanel offers it as an install option. It has a longer period before it is no longer supported than 22.04LTS has (04/2027) vs 04/2029). It also has a longer support cycle than 22.04LTS has (12 years vs 10 years). -
