Finished the installation but can't see NodeBB in a web browser
Solved
Technical Support
-
I tried to access my website using the port number 4567 in the browser but I see nothing NodeBB-related.
I ran ./nodebb log and this is what I got:
- Do I do anything to config.json such as adding the port number?
- I am on Digital Ocean and I want to install NodeBB on a subdomain. So, after setting up DNS in my Digital Ocean control panel, I went to my browser and typed the URL including the subdomain then put at the end :4567, but I didn't see anything.

If you're accessing it through a subdomain make sure you have your subdomain configured in your config.json file in your root NodeBB folder.
Also, since you're using a subdomain to access this you will have to configure your server so that it will redirect your subdomain to the correct port (:4567). You can find the instructions in the docs or look at my post here where I redirected my subdomain to the nodebb IP
If that doesn't work, try re-running
npm i
maybe it didn't install a dependency correctly? -
Thanks. It is resolved now.
