Setup script: MongoDb connection

[Nicolas]

Hello guys,

Can't do initial setup: sudo ./nodebb setup

I have auth connection error:

I just double checked configuration(config.json includes correct password), seems everything is correct, also I don't have problems with connection from mongo shell or Robomongo (Admin GUI):

Shell example: mongo -u overuser -p herePwd --authenticationDatabase forum_db

Mongo is configured with authentication:

# Turn on/off security.  Off is currently the default
#noauth = true
auth = true

P.S.
overuser is dbOwner of forum_db
branch: 0.6.x

Interesting stuff, but:

node app.js --setup

I was able to finish initial setup...

It could be because you were calling it with sudo

As @pitaj mentions, invoking sudo with NodeBB is bound to bring you trouble -- no need for superuser privileges for NodeBB, and I'm thinking of having NodeBB run as the nobody user, if possible...
