@Vikash-Kumar225 you can't install NodeBB on shared hosting

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.

CentOS - NodeBB Documentation

@teh_g In that documentation where should i write all those commands, when i was working in cloud9 i can see the terminal there , but in my case of hostgator (virtual private server ) where should i write all my commands

Hostgator should give you a command line. If they don't, then they will not work for NodeBB. Again, we recommend DigitalOcean to host your NodeBB, you'll get a month free just by registering with this link.
