Forum down after restart

@pitaj thanks. Found the rogue process, and now I'm stuck with this.
sudonix@vps:~/nodebb$ ./nodebb start && ./nodebb log Starting NodeBB "./nodebb stop" to stop the NodeBB server "./nodebb log" to view server output "./nodebb help" for more commands Hit Ctrl-C to exit at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:83:21) 2021-09-26T20:43:20.339Z [4567/2900] - info: [app] Shutdown (SIGTERM/SIGINT) Initialised. 2021-09-26T20:43:20.340Z [4567/2900] - error: Error [ERR_SERVER_NOT_RUNNING]: Server is not running. at Server.close (net.js:1608:12) at Object.onceWrapper (events.js:519:28) at Server.emit (events.js:412:35) at emitCloseNT (net.js:1661:8) at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:81:21) 2021-09-26T20:43:20.346Z [4567/2893] - info: [reputation-rules] settings loaded 3 restarts in 10 seconds, most likely an error on startup. Halting.
So it looks like the process spawns and then immediately crashes. Trouble is I don't know where. It even does this with all plugins disabled.

Does it work if you run node app?
Yes

Does it still work with daemon:false or does that no longer help?
-
@phenomlab it must be something to do with the
daemon
stuff.NodeBB/loader.js at ac1b9692f2bccbf8420224f152535c238404ef53 · NodeBB/NodeBB

Can you try adding
console.log
s through there to try and find where the script stops executing for you? -
@phenomlab
./nodebb slog
just runs./nodebb start
then shows the log withtail
. Nothing fancy. When you quit the command, you're just exitingtail
, NodeBB isn't stopped.The "production" equivalent of
./nodebb dev
isnode app
. There are many ways you can set it up to run as a daemon. For instance, setting up a systemd service. -
@phenomlab Yo mon! Ye' be having just way too much fun!

Which is probably the way to go if you're using a systemd based distro
Running NodeBB - NodeBB Documentation
Documentation portal for NodeBB Forum Software
(docs.nodebb.org)
Rock on!
-
@PitaJ interestingly, after starting NodeBB using
./NodeBB slog
, if I then execute./NodeBB stop
I getNodeBB is already stopped.
So think it's correct to say that as far as the daemon is concerned, it's not running even though it actually is.
-
@phenomlab glad that'll work for you.
Would you mind participating in some more debug for this down the line? There's an alternative package for starting the daemon that I'm wondering might work for you.

Any thoughts ?
Thanks
When i got that i error i used: npm install --save --legacy-peer-deps
That worked for me.
-
@sampo2910 thanks, although I think there is a post that mentions your have to downgrade to V6 which also worked for me.

@PitaJ Sorry I'm a little late responding here. I've used
