Hello,

just installed NodeBB on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit (AWS). I use 0.6.x and MongoDB.

All worked, but when I activated the Vanilla theme (Lavender was active), things seems to be broken ...

• cannot logout
• all admin pages are not found
• can't post

JS console says at page load in front end:
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: config
i (nodebb.min.js, line 14)
(anonyme Funktion) (nodebb.min.js, line 14)
global code (nodebb.min.js, line 14)
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: config
(anonyme Funktion) (nodebb.min.js, line 14)
u (nodebb.min.js, line 1)
fireWith (nodebb.min.js, line 1)
ready (nodebb.min.js, line 1)
P (nodebb.min.js, line 1)

And back end:
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: config
socketIOConnect (app.js, line 23)
(anonyme Funktion) (app.js, line 603)
global code (app.js, line 617)
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: templates

fire (jquery.js, line 3087)
fireWith (jquery.js, line 3199)
ready (jquery.js, line 433)
completed (jquery.js, line 104)

Tried:

./nodebb reset theme

But this command loads the broken Vanilla theme again and again, although it started with Lavender ...

Any suggestions?

Solved! Well, Uberspace ...

Hope that will help other users to run NodeBB with Uberspace. The problem was the run-file I used for the daemon.

This is my new code. ([USER]/etc/[YOUR-SERVICE]/run

cd $HOME/[NODEBB-FOLDER]
./nodebb start

In the official NodeBB documentation the preffered method to start is ./nodebb start.
Don't follow third party tutorials in this case ... NodeBB seems unstable with other methods to start.

I will test it further, but for now it seems to work pretty well.

Hello,

I installed NodeBB on Uberspace (CentOS) and all worked just fine.

But I can't login. When I try, a new tab opens with the single word "Forbidden".

I have the newest versions of Node.js, NPM, NodeBB (0.6.x branch) and MongoDB. The user exists. Same thing with register.

Are there log files?
Any suggestions?

Hope you can help me.

Greetings.
