Hello,

I managed to install nodebb with below configurations and it is working like a charm now. But if i REBOOT my vps, when i go to my forum page i can't see default categories anymore there are only nodebb logo and login and register buttons but they don't work also.

*nodebb working on unix socket,
*redis server working on unix socket,
*/opt/nodebb chowned by nodebb user,
*i started nodebb by nodebb user, not as root with ./nodebb start
*i didn't implement any upstart, forever or Supervisor rules
*i didn't add nodebb to systemd for auto-start (/lib/systemd/system/nodebb.service)

my config.json;

{
    "url": "https://forum.mydomain.com/",
    "port": "/tmp/nodebb.sock",
    "secret": "145a922f----------------------",
    "database": "redis",
    "redis": {
        "host": "/tmp/redis.sock",
        "password": "longlongpass",
        "database": "0"
    }
}

My proxy settings; maybe this helps someone | apache 2.4+ | while nodebb on unix domain socket.
