Admin Panel Broken

Even though the permission to this folder is valid, I am still not able to read the file. I have to rename the folder and restart the nginx according to Permission denied while reading upstream. But the port issue remains unresolved.

What OS are you on? Perhaps SELinux is an issue for you?

@scottalanmiller I am on Ubuntu 16.04. Not sure if that's an issue though but I haven't encountered any reading issue until this update.

No SELinux on Ubuntu so can't be the issue unless you added it manually

@Kinchtwck that is SO weird, because that's not a default, and doesn't appear in your config. Maybe do a ...
grep 8080 -R *

Back to this... any output?

Yeah, that's not NodeBB, looks like you're launching jimp, the image manipulation tool...

So weird, I wonder how that got installed in there!

scottalanmiller

This is the package that is firing up.

jimp

An image processing library written entirely in JavaScript.. Latest version: 1.6.0, last published: 2 months ago. Start using jimp in your project by running `npm i jimp`. There are 2382 other projects in the npm registry using jimp.

npm (www.npmjs.com)

@scottalanmiller @julian I'll try to remove that package. If it's not nodebb, how come that the server can render my website through nginx proxy with port 8080...

Maybe Jimp's libraries are hijacking something. It's super weird. Jimp does have a config built into server.js that fires it up on port 8080. But that should not be firing up at this time. It should not be activating.

Here is that file...

# cat server.js 
var express = require("express");
var app = express();

app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/browser'));

app.listen(8080);

console.log("Serving on http://127.0.0.1:8080");

It's present in my installation, too. It should be there, but it should not be running anything. That's the weird part. What is making it turn on its server?

julian

Probably executed it by mistake... @Kinchtwck how are you starting NodeBB?
