@So-Confused Don't use the dev version, it's not guaranteed as stable.
Follow this guide for Ubuntu. It's more up to date. Include v0.6.x in your git pull as per the instructions.
Awesome, I got it set up. Thanks!
I used Lets Encrypt for SSL in NodeBB, and i config nginx below:
server {
listen 80;
server_name d.paopevil.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name d.paopevil.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/d.paopevil.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/d.paopevil.com/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567/;
proxy_redirect off;
# Socket.IO Support
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
location ~ /.well-known {
allow all;
}
}
But I don't login with Admin account. And where did I go wrong?
Nginx config :
# code block
# HTTP Server
server {
source_charset utf-8;
listen 80;
server_name nodebb.dev;
rewrite ^ https://$server_name$request_uri permanent;
}
server {
source_charset utf-8;
listen nodebb.dev:443;
server_name nodebb.dev;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate ../../openssl/certs/nodebb/server.crt;
ssl_certificate_key ../../openssl/certs/nodebb/server.key;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567;
proxy_redirect off;
# Socket.IO Support
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
}
and the NodeBB config :
{
"url": "https://nodebb.dev:4567",
"secret": "9feb33e9-6665-40ab-9209-d74825c4f668",
"database": "mongo",
"port": "4567",
"mongo": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "27017",
"username": "nodebb",
"password": "password",
"database": "nodebb"
}
}
You don't need the port number in url
in config.json
if you're using nginx as reverse proxy.
In your nginx server block, just have listen 443 ssl
- no need to specify a bind address.
Use nginx -t
to test configuration.
Thank you!
I use SSL so I have to add the following line of code to Nginx:
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
Then restart nginx and Nodebb, and this working.
Did you pack the SSL certificate based on the nginx documentation ? I use "Let's Encrypt" and it only worked when I did NOT pack the certificate crt file.
Pack? You mean combine with intermediate certs? To my knowledge no such combining is required when using Let's Encrypt
Yes, figured that out the hard way lol
