How i can install Nodebb in cpanel Hosting?? Can anybody help me

Hi @sohag, you are not able to install NodeBB on traditional shared hosting services. You will need to set up a virtual private server or similar.

You need Phusion Passenger to run Node.js apps under cPanel.

and

I have used CloudLinux OS and it support Node.js Selector (similar to PHP Selector) by default. No need to install anything else.

@nhl-pl this is news to me. Pretty cool!

@nhl.pl can you provide a tutorial on how to do these. Thanks

@nhl.pl But cpanel cannot run Postgresql, mongodb or redis- the databases supported by NodeBB, which basically means nodebb cannot run on cpanel. There is a PR(in github) for sqlite support in Nodebb from around a year ago. If that is merged after incorporating the latest db changes, then it will be possible to run nodebb on cpanel.

@bh4-tech You can still install MongoDB and Redis manually - you just wouldn't be able to manage it in cPanel.

@phenomlab Only if the hosting provider allows. Although, its the same for running node.js and python, most hosting providers in my country allow running Node.js and Python but do not allow MongoDB. Nevertheless, upon a careful search @sohag might find a provider which supports MongoDB.
