I broke it :( Endless loop now

[Purupuru]

I had upgraded to 0.6.1 successfully, but all my plugins didn't make it, so I tried to go back to 0.5.7 (it seemed like a good idea at the time) and it said nope. I can't even get it to resolve, gives connection refused error.

It just loops stuff like this over and over again:

Clustering enabled: Spinning up 1 process(es).

Did I break it forever?

I see some errors calling the theme nodebb-theme-dark-rectangles, but I had removed it. So is it just looping because herp derp no theme set at all anymore?

[pichalite]

@Purupuru try this

./nodebb reset theme

[a_5mith]

You'll also need to go back to 0.6.1, once you've run ./nodebb upgrade on a major version change such as from 5.x to 6.x, you can't go back.

[Purupuru]

I couldn't even reset the theme until I went back to 0.6.1 (it would just say nothing reset). I've gone back to 0.6.1, and reset theme to vanilla, but when ./nodebb start, now this:

jarvis@AVENGURZ:~/nodebbdir$ ./nodebb start

  "./nodebb stop" to stop the NodeBB server
  "./nodebb log" to view server output

Then it just stops and makes me cry

[Purupuru]

herp derp, just had to rerun setup and like magic it's back.

@Purupuru Glad to hear it!

./nodebb upgrade should've taken care of updating the config.json file for you -- not sure why that didn't work out.
