@Mirko you can reverse proxy NodeBB through apache. The suggested solution is to use nginx, but if you already have a system using apache, you can use that instead.
nodeBB & DigitalOcean & other
-
We use digital ocean for our hosting, so it's definitely good enough for you.
-
@julian Thanks a lot
i hear that they are blocked your servers for many reasons ... -
I am working on a docker setup for DigitalOcean with CoreOS. At the moment i have my own hardware. But my docker packages for java (using for Minecraft) works great. In that case i must have a 10$ VPS
-
I use digital ocean and have 0 issues, well other than self inflicted ones
-
@julian in digitalocean can you install various nodeBB / forums on the same vps ? Thanks
-
@djcyry yes you can. set them up to run on different ports.

Same install , same commands but different port ? Is here any tut or guide ?
I want to launch 2 projects .
1 . community for djs/producers
2 . nodeBB spanish community
So i want to host booth on same server . -
@djcyry just use different folders and different ports.
for your case, during the install when you clone the NodeBB github repository
for example for djs/producers clone to the folder nodebb-djs and for spanish clone to nodebb-spanish
each folder will be a separate installation and use different ports during setup and use a proxy server (apache or nginx...) to proxy to the correct installation

Ok , thanks..
I will try tomorrow .
Also in this case , i need 2 IP adresses ?
Because if using differrents ports and folders i think i dont need 2 IP. -
@djcyry not required
-
@djcyry not if you use nginx to reverse proxy.

Always i use apache so ...i will try nginx , thanks .

@djcyry Apache can work too with reverse proxy's if you feel more comfortable with that. Its also documented in the current NodeBB documentation. So long you host the 2 NodeBB forums on different ports it will work without any problems.
