@zipang yes of course we'll support Node 8 but to do so we have to drop support for all Node versions prior to v6. You can understand why we'd be hesitant to do so so quickly after our last major version release.
nodebb upgrade brakes Redis / doesn't fix dependencies
-
Hi,
I tried to upgrade from v0.9.0 to v0.9.1. It seems like a basic upgrade. However this './nodebb upgrade' will break Redis configuration. I did all the thinks listed on this page:
https://docs.nodebb.org/vi/latest/upgrading/When I do a
./nodebb upgrademy NodeBB will gives errors about Redis. Yes Redis is installed and running. The only 'dirty' fix is to run./nodebb setupI guess that is not the idea. This issue is still not solved... EDIT: Now my installation is even broken!Terminal output:
[email protected]:/var/www/forum.libreweb.org/html$ ./nodebb upgrade 1. Bringing base dependencies up to date... OK 2. Updating NodeBB data store schema. 2/12 14:24 [26040] - error: Unable to initialize Redis! Is Redis installed? Error :Cannot find module 'redis' OK NodeBB Upgrade Complete!

It's even worse now. The ```./nodebb upgrade`` command doesn't upgrade my NodeBB installation. Now my installation is broken and not working at all![email protected]:/var/www/forum.libreweb.org/html$ ./nodebb log Type Ctrl-C to exit For the full license, please visit: http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html Clustering enabled: Spinning up 1 process(es). 2/12 15:03 [1353] - info: Time: Wed Dec 02 2015 15:03:34 GMT+0100 (CET) 2/12 15:03 [1353] - info: Initializing NodeBB v0.9.1 [outdated] nodebb-theme-lavender installed v3.0.0, package.json requires 3.0.1 2/12 15:03 [1353] - warn: One or more of NodeBB's dependent packages are out-of-date.

npm install nodebb-theme-lavender
Becausenodebb upgradedidn't help at all!Bottom-line: Check the nodebb upgrade script, this script isn't working as expected. I already have two issues:
- Upgrade script doesn't fix the nodebb dependencies
- Upgrade script brake Redis or configuration file
Kind regards,

Here check this topic:
https://community.nodebb.org/topic/7142/latest-pull-breaks-nodebb-packages-are-out-of-date/To fix the issues try to run the following commands:
npm i [email protected]
npm i install [email protected]And then run ./nodebb setup and just press enter. It is indeed just a workaround, but better than nothing.
