Might as well add another cog to my plan im on cent os

Steve

Perhaps it will help you to know that I have been checking in on dad-forums.com periodically throughout the day, and it has been up every time?

I've been resetting it constantly lol you might just have good luck.. buy a lotto ticket

Steve

Let's confuse the issue deeper...

Site just went white in my browser. too long to read error in the error.log for nginx.

I open up Chrome, it works.
I open up my iPad, it works (also a Safari based item).

So something in Safari/desktop is not playing nice with the site.

BUTTT (there's always one)

The site does not show stats, admin info, etc. in ANY of these broswers or devices unless I load the site up with the port # info :4567 -- also the same re: Login showing after signing in and getting Admin access.. all that happens over everything.

So I'm thinking it's a nginx setup issue because it's obviously not node/forever/etc.. they're all ok.. it's something with the proxy/nginx config.

Steve

Okay. I tried a bunch of things systematically when I get the white screen. End result is if I close/open a tab and retype in addy it loads up.. so the process there is crapping out, but it's still up.. that's why @julian you see it when checking

Now the real and final issue here is the :4567 showing the data / #'s etc.. correct, and the url without port is not per the screenshots.

Once that's fixed I can finally pull in the other database. I'm sure that will be a treat.

When NodeBB doesn't show the forum stats, that's usually because it is unable to connect with websockets, and will eventually fall back to XHR polling. At least... that's the hope

If you stay on that page for 10-20 seconds, do the stats come up eventually?

julian

On the bright side, @outlawedoffroad - think of all the sysadmin skills you're gaining!

Only the first stat.. or in ACP some come in some don't. But yeah it's 10-20 seconds.

I used to run old school BBS's back in the day 10-20 years ago compiling C++ and whatever with my old WWiV systems so I don't mind troubleshooting as long as I know there will be an end to the rainbow.

Steve

Oh and the delay is now over all browsers, nothing is spared from the chaos of the delay!

julian

Please attach your nginx config file, and your nginx version.

** For reference, nginx must be v1.3.13+, or else WebSockets will not work! **

Steve

I did it all from the guide on the wiki but nginx is only @ 1.1.19 whats the upgrade command I'll slap that bitch in place and cross my fingers

julian

You'll have to do a yum install or update, whichever it is for your OS.
