Proper Path to install on Digital Ocean Server with Preexisting Ghost Install
-
Though the config.js shows the relative path correctly. Is there an additional redis step? If users typically need to include the port (i.e. <IP Address>:4567 , what would be the exact reference for this forum?)
"upload_path": "/public/uploads",
"relative_path": "/forum" -
But you wouldn't want your users to have to access the site by appending the port number to the domain name.
What type of installation are you attempting? In a subdomain (forum.yoursite.com), subfolder (yoursite.com/forum) or standalone (yoursite.com)?
-
@planner I'm open to either a subdomain or a subfolder (I was attempting a subfolder).
-
So is it working?
-
@planner - Nope. Not yet. I may try: 1) change to subdomain instead in the config file, and 2) upload on a 32 bit version of ubuntu (I did read that we weren't sure if 64 bit worked).
-
(I did read that we weren't sure if 64 bit worked)
Where did you get that info about the 64-bit version of Ubuntu not working?
-
@planner I believe some comment on an installation instructions blog post questioned whether or not nodebb would compile on 64bit. Is this verified incorrect?
-
Well, my installation is running in a subdomain of a WP site running on a 64-bit Ubuntu 13.10. And I've not heard any comment from the devs regarding this.
-
@planner ok - thanks for that confirmation. I'll rule that out as the issue then.
