@baris Redis seems to have fixed it. Thanks.
I didn't realize that Redis was required, just "recommended".

@Bri No CDN and I can't find anything in any log. They tried with multiple browsers on multiple machines from multiple IPs.

So everything works properly for 2 of the users on a site I'm setting up, except chats and shouts that the other 2 users post aren't received without manually reloading the page. Those first 2 users can chat with each other normally, but have to reload to see chats from the other two. I'm not seeing any errors with dev mode, or in the logs (mongo, nginx). I've tried about everything I can think of, deleting sessions, removing plugins, different browsers. We only have 4 members, so I don't know if it would affect more than just those two users.
To be clear, myself and another user can chat normally, but need to reload the page to see chats from the other two. Websockets seem to be working correctly. The other two can get notifications for non-chat things, they can send chats, and they can receive chats, it's just their sent chats that don't seem to be updating dynamically.

Configs are here

These two users were able to chat normally earlier today, but only briefly, then the problems started again. There wasn't anything that I had done at that point, so I'm at a loss.

@bentael I'm got a new forum set up with v1.0.0 and everything seems to work, except I get an "invalid csrf token" error when I try to log in. I have nodebb listening on a public facing interface, no proxying. The URL I'm using to access the site matches the one in config.json, it's just the server IP. I had no problems earlier with a different db and the most recent nodebb release, but the importer obviously won't work there.

Thanks for any help.

I rolled back to mongo 3.0.8 and that seems to have fixed it for now.

I'm getting this error whenever I try to open a thread. Everything else seems to work. I have an installation on one of my PCs that works fine. The only real difference is that that server has mongo 2.4.10 from the Debian repos and this one has mongo 3.2.0. Mongo does work and I have a non-nodebb site using it that works fine. Thanks for any help.
