I fixed my own issue. Apparently some install scripts fail when run as root (or with sudo). I'm not sure why this is the case, but I got everything to work by running sudo chown -R ralph:www-data /path/to/nodebb && ./nodebb upgrade as a standard user.

@pitaj Yes true, I tried installing mongo onto my 17.04. The installation was successful but some packages did not work (were not supported).

@SparaxVenator try running npm install

I managed to fix this and thought I would post this here for posterity.

I edited the file npm-shrinkwrap.json

and replaced the code block on line 1159:

"simple-recaptcha": { "version": "1.0.0", "from": "git://github.com/wzrdtales/simple-recaptcha.git#f408725106872df696436ff6a988923539ab80a6", "resolved": "git://github.com/wzrdtales/simple-recaptcha.git#f408725106872df696436ff6a988923539ab80a6" }

with:

"simple-recaptcha": { "version": "1.0.0", "from": "https://github.com/wzrdtales/simple-recaptcha/archive/v1.0.0.tar.gz", "resolved": "https://github.com/wzrdtales/simple-recaptcha/archive/v1.0.0.tar.gz" }

Solved: upgrade to NodeBB v0.7.0.

Well.. For the nodebb application himself you could use "forever" .... but when it turned 5x i stopped using forever (@julian posted somewhere that nodebb application can do the forever job himself)

for the database.. well.. dont monitor it YET cz the volume of my transactions is low...

But any service monitor application could do it.. like nagios ...or newrelic

@Ted said:

If you'll start NodeBB and leave it running, I'll see if I can can connect to it and register a profile

I can't this server is not open on internet, only in local.
