[Help install] 2 forums on same server

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

Hello,

First you need to create a config file on nginx for the first forum where you need to have an nginx config looking something like this:

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  example.com;

    #charset koi8-r;
    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header X-Nginx-Proxy true;
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567;
        proxy_redirect off;

        # Socket.IO Support
       proxy_http_version 1.1;
       proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
       proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
  }
}

then you need to download again the nodebb on a different folder, Run the ./nodebb setup script and configure it with a different port and a different database then you copy the nginx config change the domain name and the port in the proxy_pass option and restart the nginx.

I have add that code on : /etc/nginx/sites-available/default , and modifi ip:port and domain name its ok ?
Or where i need to create that file ?

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

@djcyry Make sure you have it in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default as well. That's OK. I personally prefer to have different configuration file for different domains.

No , not working ... something is wrong - i do wrong
Also i have add this line to hosts file on mi pc : 62.75.159.105:4567 www.nodebb.es
because i think the dns is not ready yet : http://www.intodns.com/nodebb.es

PD. the second domain , with the dns full propagated is works : http://hercio.net/
in this setting i neet to modifi the path of nodebb in some place?

djcyry

Now i have install apache and i have edited the :
/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

by adding this lines :

<VirtualHost 62.75.159.105:4567>
DocumentRoot "/root/nodebb/"
ServerName www.hercio.net
</VirtualHost>

Only its responds from www.hercio.net:4567
I dont know what to do for working and install the second forum ....

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

I don't know how to setup with apache cause I never use apache but if you want to try with nginx you could paste your nginx configuration

also your config.js while you can modify the identifier from the config.

I will try with apache one more time , if not i install ngingx .
One thing , when i install the second forum , the database port still the same port 6379 ?
I have install the 2nd forum , and i modify only the clone folder name, port to 4568 and database 1 , its ok ?

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

@djcyry Yes the database port does not change just the database itself. You can use 0 for first site and 1 for the second

Done.
Now ,lets see if anyone knows how to setup that proxy on apache .

Peter-Zoltan Keresztes

You might want to check the documentation. Use google to find it.

Done with nginx .

First you need to create a .config file on /etc/nginx/conf.d
Something like this :

 server {
listen       80;
server_name  example.com;

#charset koi8-r;
location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-Nginx-Proxy true;
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567;
    proxy_redirect off;

    # Socket.IO Support
   proxy_http_version 1.1;
   proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
   proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";

}
}

Then you need to edit 2 lines :

example.com with your website
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567; with your ip adress

Afer edit , save that file and then add that code , same code on this files :
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

For redirect non-www to www or vicee versa , add this code :

server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;

return 301 http://www.examplee.com$request_uri;

}

Thanks to all

@djcyry you don't have to change proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567 to add your IP... leave it as it is

if you add the server block in a .conf file under /etc/nginx/conf.d, then you don't need to add it in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default and
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
