Can you tell anything about your hosting? Do you have SSH access?

Hello @theflickx!

NodeBB is designed to work best under a virtual private server. Using a traditional hosting service is not recommended as they do not have the capabilities to power NodeBB effectively.

• The code and instructions can be found here at our project repository
• Full instructions can be found in our Documentation Portal
• We recommend DigitalOcean to host your NodeBB, you'll get a month free just by registering with this link. You can also try applying the 10TOSHIP coupon to get another two months free.

Thank you for your interest in NodeBB!
