    @eeeee for what it's worth, it's internal policy in NodeBB that nvm and n NEVER be installed on our client machines.

    It's caused far too much headache for this very same reason. I think I have gone as far as to migrate an entire client site to another server just to get back to a node version I could control. It was rather cathartic to send the old server to /dev/null.

    Anyway, the problem here is as @phenomlab pointed out, is path related. Both n and nvm fmuck around with the symlinks in /usr/bin or /bin, etc., and there's no easy way to undo what those scripts do unless you run the uninstallation script.

    How do you know which uninstall script to run? You don't. Did you use nvm or n, and if so, which one? Who knows now. If you do know, does the script provide information (via --help flag or whatnot) to instruct you on how to uninstall it? Ha ha, of course not.

    Let me have apt control my dependencies any day. Warts and all. Rant over.

    Thanks a ton. Lesson learned: 3 o' clock in the morning isn't good for migration stuff.

    Finally made it from v0.6.0 to v1.4.1

    This was my upgrade route (hosted on DigitalOcean and with a mongo database - shell 2.6.7, node v0.10.38)

    *v0.6 to v0.6.1 git fetch git reset --hard origin/v0.6.x git describe --tags ./nodebb upgrade *v0.6.1 to v0.7.0 git checkout v0.7.0 ./nodebb upgrade npm install touch npm install minimist npm install colors *v0.7.0 to v0.7.3 git reset --hard origin/v0.7.x git describe --tags ./nodebb upgrade node app --upgrade *install nvm curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.11.1/install.sh | bash *Restart terminal nvm install v0.10.39 * Change index.js in /root/"yourfoldername"/node_modules/connect-mongo from *module.exports = require('./src'); *to *module.exports = require('connect-mongo/es5'); *edit /etc/mongod.conf, to uncomment auth = true line service mongod restart mongo use admin db.createUser({user: "adminname", pwd: "yourpassword", roles: ["readWrite"]}) use *name of the db where nodebb is installed* db.updateUser( "adminname", { roles : [ { role : "dbAdmin", db : "*name of the db where nodebb is installed*" }, { role : "readWrite", db : "*name of the db where nodebb is installed*" } ] } ) ./nodebb upgrade ./nodebb start ./nodebb stop *v0.7.3 to v0.8.x git checkout v0.8.x git pull ./nodebb upgrade ./nodebb start ./nodebb stop *v0.8.2 to v0.9.x git checkout v0.9.x git pull ./nodebb upgrade ./nodebb start ./nodebb stop *v0.9.4 to v1.4.1 git checkout v1.x.x git pull nvm install v6.2.1 nvm use v6.2.1 ./nodebb upgrade *edit /etc/mongod.conf, to uncomment noauth=true line

    This should help to avoid any issue with mmmagic, kerberos, bluebird and the key_1_value_-1 already exist error.

    Et voilà !

    Thanks again for your help Julian !
