    My NodeBB forum has stopped running, although it was up and running previously.

    When I try to run NodeBB via '''./nodebb start''', NodeBB does not actually run.

    When going to the URL, I don't see NodeBB and just the default Nginx landing page.

    Here is my config.json file for NodeBB:

    Please help, and if more information is needed, let me know.

    I am using:

    • AWS EC2 Ubuntu 16.04
    • Nginx
    • MongoDB

    Thank you.

    Try running ./nodebb dev, it will show whatever errors occur in real time.

    Did not know of that command, apparently I cannot connect to Mongo despite it saying it is active, I am troubleshooting right now.

    Thank you.

    Seems like MongoDB doesn't boot up anymore:

    I'm lost, I've googled, and I'm still lost. How can I get MongoDB to connect to the server again?

    I have never seen that before. Try sudo systemctl restart mongod

    @pitaj said in NodeBB Stopped Running - ./nodebb status always says not running:

    sudo systemctl restart mongod

    Nope, same error. My teammate suggested that I restart from scratch. 🤷
    I don't want to give up on it yet though, still working at it.

    The error suggests the mongo lock file is present so mongo refuses to start up again.

    If you're sure mongo isn't running, just delete the lock file.
