uploaded profile image has bad URL

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

Hello,

I have uploaded an image to my profile on my own build nodebb and the profile picture fails cause it has bad URL.
I am running my nodebb under /community and when I upload the image it gives me the following url: https://vpsie.com/community/community/uploads/profile/2-profileimg.png when I should only have community ones: https://vpsie.com/community/uploads/profile/2-profileimg.png
Do you guys have any suggestions how should I fix this issue?

thanks in advance.

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes Can you provide your config.json (keys and passwords removed) as well as the configuration of your proxy (nginx/apache).

Looks like you've defined /community in both the config.json & the proxy, so it's going to base_url/community. But base_url already contains community.

@a_5mith

It is only configured in the config:

{
    "port": "4568",
    "secret": "some string",
    "database": "mongo",
    "mongo": {
        "host": "127.0.0.1",
        "port": "27017",
        "username": "admin",
        "password": "",
        "database": "0"
    },
    "url": "https://vpsie.com/community"
}

and nginx proxy for community looks like this:

location ^~ /community {
    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://127.0.0.1:4568;
    proxy_redirect off;
}

So the file is uploaded to the correct place it's just the url saved that is not correct?

If you know your uid can you post the output of the following?

redis-cli
hget user:<youruid> uploadedpicture

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

Yes the file is uploaded to the correct place and its just the url save that is wrong. I am running this on mongodb not redis. I doubt that command will work.

On mongodb you can just run

mongo
db.objects.find({_key:"user:<youruid>"}).pretty();

Don't forget to remove your password from the output.

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

Here is the entry from the database.

db.objects.find({_key:"user:2"}).pretty();
    {
	"_id" : ObjectId("53d79cfe98fa3bf35ba96e41"),
	"_key" : "user:2",
	"banned" : 0,
	"birthday" : "",
	"email" : "[email protected]",
	"email:confirmed" : 1,
	"fullname" : "",
	"gravatarpicture" : "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7a192cf8dddf900c964f772b46e81ae7?size=128&default=identicon&rating=pg",

Try with https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/commit/b40b87dd360c28d7df0e6f49274a36cfdda7d0f9

Let us know if it is resolved. Looks like relative_path was already added to the url on the way out.

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

It does not work. It has the same url for the profile image.

<baris>

You will have to reupload the image since it is already stored in the database with the relative_path.

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

That fixed it, however it created another issue. While editing the user change picture is not working now. Until I click the save button on the main profile.

I will take a look at it.

All works now. Thank you for your help.

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

Since we have fixed the profile image issue clicking on the admin icon does not do anything. I can see the proper url on the status bar but clicking on it does not have any effect.

That's an unrelated bug check here https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/2711
