./nodebb status

The log you included shows an npm install failing to complete due to an error during the sharp module installation. I suggest checking the following site to help with that:

sharp - High performance Node.js image processing

Resize large images in common formats to smaller, web-friendly JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF and AVIF images of varying dimensions

(sharp.pixelplumbing.com)

Specifically, it says that you're missing a C++11 compiler. Run apt install build-essential if you're on Ubuntu.

@oplik0
I am running nodebb on centos 6.10
and hostgator is not giving option to migrate to centos 7

what should i do ?
Because I am not able to install libvips without which i cannot install sharp
due to which after upgrading nodebb to latest version my nodebb is not getting started

Now this error is coming

configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile,

@Abhinov-Singh-0 You'll probably have to build libvips from source tarball. Look here for instructions on doing so.
