nginx as reverse proxy
-
@a_5mith I tried various things with Proxy Pass. I've just spun up a new DO droplet to build again, and I'm getting the same results.
This is the config that it generated when setting it up:
{
"base_url": "http://nodebb.matt1206.co.uk",
"port": "4567",
"use_port": false,
"secret": "bd66b3f6-08f9-4efa-947d-4b9df5afb2da",
"bind_address": "127.0.0.1",
"database": "redis",
"redis": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "6379",
"password": "",
"database": "0"
},
"bcrypt_rounds": 12,
"upload_path": "/public/uploads",
"use_port": false,
"relative_path": ""
}
I'm currently using this server block on the new VPSserver {
listen 188.226.168.176:80;
server_name nodebb.matt1206.co.uk;location / { proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true; proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567/; proxy_redirect off; #Socket.IO Support proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; }}

Let your
proxy_passandserverin Nginx config match yourbase_urlin NodeBB config. -
@planner Getting 502 bad gateway with that set
server { listen 188.226.168.176:80; server_name nodebb.matt1206.co.uk; location / { proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true; proxy_pass http://nodebb.matt1206.co.uk:4567/; proxy_redirect off; #Socket.IO Support proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; } }Swapping back to 127.0.0.1:4567 for the proxy pass lets the site load, but still can't post.

I've just reconfigure nodebb to listen on the public address:

http://nodebb.matt1206.co.uk - loads, can browse, but can't post, create categories

Well, that's progress. At least you know it works - partially. Check your Nginx error log for clues to what's happening when you try to post or create categories. Also check your browser's Web console.

@planner That has always been the case. The site has always been loading. Same for this one (http://sheffieldfitnessforum.co.uk/)

@Matt-Worthington Earlier, I did manage to register, although I didn't try posting. Seemed to be working fine for me.
Latest version of NodeBB, or 0.4.3?
You are running NodeBB v0.4.3.
You are up-to-dateIf you go here : http://sheffieldfitnessforum.co.uk/register

I can post if I use this URL : http://sheffieldfitnessforum.co.uk:4567/

@Matt-Worthington Seems to be working fine... so at the very least perhaps we can rule out a problem on the server end?

Just got home, and it's working just as expected. Must be something VirginMedia is doing, as they are the ISP we use at work.
