Default Installation 3.10.3, but many JS files return 404, why?

I'm not familiar with that error, but you can try a few things.

Don't use root user to run nodebb commands, make sure the nodebb folder is owned by a nonprivileged user. Then run npm install with that user and try running ./nodebb build again.

It seems that this error is actually the root cause of the problem.

ERROR in ./node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.esm.js + 57 modules
Unexpected end of JSON input

@juse please run npm install again and try running ./nodebb build again.

I'm currently reinstalling everything.

Since I installed Node.js, npm, and yarn using the root account,
I didn't log out of the root account when installing NodeBB,

which resulted in NodeBB being installed in the root folder .

regular users cannot control the root folder

Now, I've deleted NodeBB and am reinstalling it using a regular user account.

[juse]

still....

You are still on the root account.

At first, I also thought it was a permission issue.
So, I deleted all the files and reinstalled them.
This time, I used the default www account.
The command I ran was sudo -u www command.
But the problem still persists...

and I use npm installagain and ./nodebb build....the problem is still....

[juse]

is it a version issue with Node.js?

[juse]

updat nodejs LTS v22.11.0ing.....

[baris]

NodeBB works on nodejs 18/20/22 so it's probably not a nodejs version issue.

[juse]

I am now using version 1.6.2. Although there are some JavaScript errors, it is still usable for the time being. It might be that the configuration of Debian 12 on the AWS server itself was not set up properly.

[juse]

All issues have been resolved.

What seemed like mysterious problems were, in fact, all related to user permissions.

During the installation environment setup and even when installing NodeBB, use the root account is OK.

However!!!! after that!!!!

I created a regular user named nodebb and granted this user permission to the nodebb directory.

Using this user, I successfully ran ./nodebb build without any issues.

I am now using the latest version 3.10.3, and everything is working perfectly without any errors.

AWS is expensive ! Better use any Intel VPC cloud computer.. Like VULTR for example. And FreeBSD much better
