Hello,

On an ubuntu14 vm I'm currently running a nodebb 1.8.2 coupled with a redis 3.0.6 using php 5.

My plan is to move this forum on a ubuntu16 physical machine running php7.

Is there a procedure to backup/restore the nodeBB ?
Or should I try to find a manual way of transfering my redis DB ?

Thanks,

@scuzz said in Moving a NodeBB mongo DB from one server to another.:

Once the database has been restored correctly you can run the NodeBB installer.

When it asks for the database you will just tell it the database name of the database you just restored.

This should then install NodeBB with your old database.

Yes, this has worked for me as well.

Making a backup of the nodebb database on the old server, for example:
mongodump -u nodebb -p [password] -d nodebb -o dump/nodebb-2018-03-30
Restoring the nodebb database from that backup, after copying it to the new server:
mongorestore -u nodebb -p [password] -d nodebb dump/nodebb-2018-03-30/nodebb/
And then installing NodeBB on the new server.

Redactor client does not display image upload errors from server

Hi Devs,

I am running the latest nodebb master, and updated to the latest redactor-composer.

I tried to upload a file using redactor, but it did not work, and no error message was posted. With further digging I found that the file was too big (higher than the predefined value in the admin page).
Is there a way to catch and display errors from nodebb callback routed into the Redactor plugin?

Minor issue, I see that when @media width>1000 Redactor is full page, but the topic title placeholder disappears. Further research identified that the div above it has "display = flex". Unsettling that brings back the title placeholder.

Thanks,
JJ.

@qgp9 Well, I am in a situation here. I was testing things on a VPS and I created letsencrypt certificates multiple times. When things didn't work out as required I reinstalled the VPS , thereby losing the private keys. Now, I cannot issue any more certificates for my domain.

Well... If you already have NodeBB running on port 80 without nginx/Apache proxy, then you can not assign another service on the port as well. I recommend you to set up an nginx/Apache proxy for NodeBB and create virutal hosts for each service you want to run on port 80 (this way you can run multiple services/sites on port 80).
