NodeBB on cPanel with Root

[tnolin]

Hello,

I would like some guidance. I am a game developer who needs to have a website and NodeBB on the same platform. I was looking to install NodeBB on a VPS that has a cPanel on CentOS with Root Access. Is that possible?

I've read an older thread (2013) about node.js not working well with a WHM/cPanel and another about not being able to install with cPanel because you need SSH (2018). My concern is if I were to use Bluehost VPS to run nodeBB and maintain a wordpress site, could they play well together.

Thank you.

You must have ssh access to install and use NodeBB

Hello,

Thank you for the response, but I don't think I got my question across correctly:

If I had a VPS with cPanel on CentOS with SSH (Root) access, will there be any issues installing NodeBB?

If you have ssh access, there will likely be a way of getting it to work, but I don't know how cpanel will interact with everything.
