Deploy nodeBB on openshift

_binary_solo

Oh, thanks for the reply! I've noticed this is somewhat of a new problem since google doesn't give any viable solutions.
Fingers crossed then! I really enjoy nodeBB and would very much like to use it in a project.

@julian I've run node app --setup but it couldn't connect to mongo (even though I passed correct db name, user and password)

julian

Pinging @baris -- he's our resident Mongo expert

Are you able to connect to Mongo using the command line in your gear?

_binary_solo

@julian yeah, I can open the mongo shell through an SSH connection.

julian

Hm... is it an external host? I believe we've only tried local hosts (127.0.0.1) for Mongo. It should work though (think)

Can you paste the error?

_binary_solo

@julian
info: Configuration Saved OK
error: NodeBB could not connect to your Mongo database. Mongo returned the following error: failed to connect to [127.0.0.1:27017]

WhateverYouWant

@_binary_solo Make sure "auth" is enabled on the mongo config file.

_binary_solo

@CaioDA Sorry, but I'm still rather new to this. Where would I enable this?

WhateverYouWant

@_binary_solo I'm not quite sure on Redhat. On Ubuntu it would be /etc/mongo.conf. Maybe it is similar?

Are you successful ?

I like Nodebb and Ghost

I'd love to see a plugin that bridges their blogging platform and NodeBB discussion platform. I have no experience with Ghost though, what do you think about this @emiliendevos?

unixfox

It's difficult to make a bridge Ghost and Nodebb. And I still have not managed to install Nodebb ^^.
I do not truly master nodejs.
