    Following this documentation I encounter the following error during the installation of node.js:

    [email protected]:/tmp/tmp.pyF6uh5JlH# fakeroot checkinstall -y --install=no --pkgversion $(echo $(pwd) | sed -n -re's/.+node-v(.+)$/\1p') make -j$(($(nproc)+1)) install

    sed: -e expression #1, char 19: unterminated `s' command

    checkinstall: unrecognized option '-j2'

    Use --help or -h to get more information

    I am running Debian. Any help or thoughts?

    I'm checking back in from a while ago. Since the first post I've moved VPS's from digital ocean to ovh and now I'm moved to vpsdime. I highly recommend them. They say the large storage vps IO is too slow for production but so far it has seriously been 10x faster in disk benchmarks and 20% faster in cpu calculations.

    Anyway, back to what I was going to say.

    I started nodebb using a root cron
    @reboot forever start /home/blue/nodebb/app.js
    turns out this gave me the button errors.
    This method works without issues
    @reboot cd /home/blue/nodebb && forever start app.js

    Interesting huh? Hopefully this helps someone avoid the headaches I've encountered. Any ideas why this may be?

    Since there is currently no easy way to migrate over from redis to mongo... running the install on an existing installation is necessary to populate mongo (even just the administrative user)... So running setup is the only option to switch over at this point. Hence the problem and the reason I posted.

    Alright, but the fact remains that before running ./nodebb setup, npm install has to be run first. Because npm install makes sure all of the requirements are met, there is no reason to perform those same checks again in ./nodebb setup.

    Considering there is currently no "proper" way to switch between databases, you are right in saying that ./nodebb setup needs to be run to populate the database. However, it will not move over the already existing data, hence it would be easier to just install another copy of NodeBB with your new database settings in another folder and copy over the old node_modules folder from the previous installation afterwards. This should also solve the error you are having.

    Sorted,

    A fresh clone was needed. The upgrade from 0.1.x to 0.2.2 was the issue.

    (sorry, I should have tested this route earlier)
