Tough start-up (NodeBB+Centos 6)

xpcontact

@planner Thank you for the advise! sure I will do that, this is just for testing, when is ready I will move it to the right domain. I will keep you posted if I figure out a solution...

I tried again to install in another domain /root folder, but nothing happens when I type: ./nodebb start ... this is discouraging

okay I figured out something, thx to http://burnaftercompiling.com/nodebb/setting-up-a-nodebb-forum-for-dummies/
URL of this installation (http://localhost) **http://198.199.67.89 **
I started my site, it works via:
http://w9forum.com:4567/
The question now, how to make it "reidrect" to http://www.w9forum.com ?

Another problem; when I try to make nodebb run forever, I type:
$ npm install -g forever
$ forever start app.js
but I get these errors;

@xpcontact Looks like forever didn't actually start the forum... perhaps try that command again?

You can configure nginx to proxy requests to NodeBB by following this guide: https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB/wiki/Configuring-nginx-as-a-proxy-to-NodeBB

Not sure about Apache, unfortunately

@Julien

Thank you actually in that link there is no solution, just listing others error too. I can see there is a problem with version ( [email protected]: wanted: {"node":"0.8.x"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.24","npm":"1.3.6"}) ), my problem I do not know how to fix that: (do I need to re-install the right version?)

My problem is simple:

To downgrade my Node version to node 0.8x
any easy step to do that? do I remover my current version 0.1x?

version 0.10.x is fine, i think everyone else is on that version and is not having any problems. Have you tried install supervisor instead? That could be a simple "fix" until you can sort out the dependency issues.

I have had problems myself and it's usually because of the repositories on certain distros being out of date.

Have you tried npm update to see if that will update your npm?

supervisor

Thank you for your support,
Do you mean npm install neo4j-supervisor ?
I tried in vain npm update

Scuzz

A npm install -g supervisor should install the supervisor app.
Are you using root or are you using sudo to execute commands?

xpcontact

npm install -g supervisor

I am using sudo, as w9forum is one of my client domain hosted at my dedicated server.
Here is the outcome (it looks like failed?)
[email protected] [~/public_html]# sudo npm install -g supervisor
[sudo] password for w9forum:
