Help me out with installing nodeBB on Digital Ocean

[MaxPen]

I've been at this for hours... I've managed to install Discourse but nodebb no no no lol

For some reason I'm cursed. I'm also new at this but I follow every guide to the letter...

I tried: https://www.blogsynthesis.com/install-nodebb-on-digitalocean/

and https://community.nodebb.org/topic/6816/installing-nodebb-on-digital-ocean-0-8v/4

and maybe some other guide too, I can't even remember now.

I just need someone who knows this stuff to tell me at what point I'm doing stuff wrong. I really cannot figure this out on my own or with Google... Already been at this for hours.

A good step by step guide is what I need. I followed the discourse install guide and I succeeded at that. Means it was good and not outdated. :octocat: )

@maxpen I'd just follow the instructions for your OS in the NodeBB docs: https://docs.nodebb.org/

There isn't going to be a difference between Ubuntu and Ubuntu hosted on DigitalOcean.

I've followed that guide several times as well: https://docs.nodebb.org/installing/os/ubuntu/

I'll try it again rn.

Wow lol I'm now finally past that issue. Its doing the final step of the install.
