    In your redis config

    /etc/redis/redis.conf

    you find this

    # Note that you must specify a directory here, not a file name. dir /var/lib/redis

    In /var/lib/redis you found

    I might be overthinking this and Auth0 is perfectly usable if I create that in React, and use the bearer token or whatever from Nodebb. The issue still remains though that I want that to be the only way to register for an account (in the custom registration page on the front-end.) I'll have to disable user registration with SSO I guess or hide that alternative login option... What's odd though is that only the alternative login works when an account is created that way. It looks like when the account is made, it gets added to the users list in nodebb, so you should be able to login with the email and password you registered with on Auth0, right?

    Can we Nodebb as a windows service?

    You certainly can, but it's not easy to do, so we don't provide our own guide.

    Here's a StackExchange question that should help:

    Installing: what files/folders does the installation/runtime change?

    I see that I had to execute ./nodebb build in the container. I am guessing that it is because after removing the container, the build directory was gone and needed to be rebuilt, which tells me I have to put a build command on every container startup. This is not very optimal. I am hoping at some point in the future we can have a more hands-off docker-friendly deployment (like with env vars and all).

    Yes I have already checked it. I have found a docker image created by @nopz, this one is up-to-date. But the official docker image in not! Maybe you (nodebb) should give access to a dockerfile to allow anyone to build a nodebb docker image. EDIT I found the dockerfile, and the problem about this outdated version here. It's outdated because the dockerfile build the image with the v0.5.x version :

    FROM centos:centos7 MAINTAINER NodeBB Docker Team <[email protected]> # install main packages: RUN yum -y update ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install epel-release tar ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install wget ; yum clean all RUN yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" RUN yum -y install nodejs git ImageMagick npm RUN yum -y install openssl openssl-devel # clone nodebb and install it RUN cd /opt ; git clone -b v0.5.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB nodebb RUN cd /opt/nodebb ; npm install # Create a nodebb volume VOLUME /opt/nodebb # Define a working directory WORKDIR /opt/nodebb # Expose ports EXPOSE 80 EXPOSE 443 EXPOSE 4567 CMD [ "node", "app.js" ]

    You should (NodeBB) update this dockerfile !

    End of the EDIT

    Now, with the nopz/nodebb image I just had a problem about plugin persistence. But the first installation is so much easier and automatic with just one docker.

    Thanks for your answer by the way 🙂
