[Solved] NodeBB does not work on the port 80 - Nginx

[neocorp]

Hello,

• VPS Ubuntu - Nginx + mongo

• Config.json

{
"base_url": "http://monnomdedomaine.eu",
"port": "4569",
"use_port": true,
"secret": "XXXX-XXX-XXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX",
"bind_address": "185.xx.xx.xx6",(VPS IP)
"database": "mongo",
"mongo": { "host": "127.0.0.1", "port": "27017", "username": "", "password": "", "database": "0"
},
"bcrypt_rounds": 12,
"upload_path": "/public/uploads",
"relative_path": ""
}

• /etc/ngninx/sites-enable/monnomdedomaine

server {
listen 80;
server_name www.monnomdedomaine.eu monnomdedomaine.eu;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://185.xx.xx.xx6:4569; (VPS IP)
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}}

• Resultat port 80:
  I can connect, the icon appears admin, but register and login don't change with user info, and I can't change anything in admin, 0 socket connections.
  same result with "bind_address" and "proxy_pass" 127.0.0.1

• Resultat port 4569
  I can use fully nodeBB (in admin 1 socket active)

Do you know where the problem might be?

(Info: I begin with nginx, node and my english is bad - french)

I think you're missing the path reference in your Nginx config:

root /path/to/nodebb/root/;

Also, you might want to change the base_url in config.json to http:// 127.0.0.1 and modify proxy_pass to match.

@planner No need for the root directive for NodeBB, just fyi

@neocorp Please let me know your nginx version, I believe you may be out of date. It must be greater than (or equal to) v1.3.13

YES!
I have upgrade nginx version 1.1.19 to 1.4.6 and "It's work"

Thanks!

Awesome, glad we got that figured out
