Hey guys,
Since there doesn't seem to be 1 document that explains how to set up a domain name to your ubuntu droplet (digital ocean) with nodebb installed I kind of looked around and figured out (might be wrong?) that i need to adjust my nginx & config.json.
This is what I did but it is not working yet. Any suggestions?
/nodebb/config.json:
{
"url": "http://www.ideocracycommunity.com:4567",
"secret": "secret code duh....",
"database": "redis",
"redis": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "6379",
"password": "zzzzzzzz",
"database": "zzzzzzzz nope"
}
}
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:
server {
listen 80;
server_name ideocracycommunity.com;
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";
}
}
DNS SETTINGS DIGITALOCEAN:

Please remove :4567 and start/restart nginx and NodeBB.
Edit: remove www. helped
Have you tried to do this?

Ok so after having a chat with nhl.pl it seems that the ip for the proxy_pass in the nginx file should be "localhost" instead of "127.0.0.1" because of reasons (digitalocean).
config.json:
{
"url": "http://ideocracycommunity.com:4567",
"secret": "lolololol",
"database": "redis",
"redis": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": "6379",
"password": "lololoo",
"database": "0"
}
}
nginx:
server {
listen 80;
server_name ideocracycommunity.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:4567;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}
}
