Hi All!

During setup of nodebb (./nodebb setup) without assign of port number appears following errors:

http://domain/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=polling&t=1430133186679-36&sid=netF9zZanEShy81DAAAP 502 (Bad Gateway)
http://domain//socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=polling&t=1430133197655-38&sid=netF9zZanEShy81DAAAP 400 (Bad Request)
http://domain/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=websocket&sid=8SEBUhGKWZskpIS3AAAQ' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 400

But if I will determine port number of nodebb, for example http://domain:4567 - this error disappear but in this case users can see port number in browser url after login into forum using SSO plugins and works properly only facebook-sso. If end-user trying to login into forum with google-sso or twitter-sso , they are working as guests and they can't see forum topics, etc...

Please advise me what to do in this case.

This is the manual how to update/upgrade from v0.5.0 to v0.6.1

• git checkout c9228f14837fcf2903923ebca3d90a0d1517a713 (I don't now why v0.5.1 doesn't work in cli and csrf token error)

• ./nodebb upgrade
• npm up
• clear cache and cookies

Is anybody knowing the better solution? Please, give me to know.

@baris I have repeated and checked all steps and permissions again and it works now. Probably I made a mistake somewhere. Thank you,

@baris My current theme is up to date. As I have already wrote , I did "npm up" and "node app --reset themes".
I think that the problem is in updating of database.
Permissions are ok because in version 0.5.1 everything works.
Only after update using wiki tutorial I have faced with this problem.

Any ideas?

After successful updating I run "npm up", cleaned cookies and cache, made "node app --reset themes" and "./nodebb reset all". Everything has started without errors but theme does not show categories and if I am trying to login then I've got error message "invalid csrf token". If I will set back fresh database to the forum - it works.

@Mikael Ок.thx May be you are right.

Thank you of course, but the obvious solution does not solve the problem, that is why I have asked this question on the forum.
I have mongodb database backup from version 0.5.0
How to move mongodb database from 0.5.0 to 0.6.1 ?
The way of upgarding that is described in the wiki is not suitable.
The reason is that the version 0.5.0 has installed on server #1, there was written several own plugins, personal theme
and many other non-standard settings. Now we are moving to new server and I want to use there latest version of NodeBB.
I have tried to move configured version 0.5.0 on new server,
an error occurs "Error creating index server 127.0.0.1:27017 sockets closed".
Running the upgrade script does not result in any obvious changes.
The main question is how to transfer database of users, messages, etc...
Later I can install my own plugins amd customize default theme.
I see two ways to solve my problem:

1. Set to work old nodeBB version 0.5.0 on new server and then do upgrade.
2. Transfer messages, users, passwords from a database configured for version 0.5.0 on a fresh instal of 0.6.1

I would be grateful for any help.

Here is short list of what has been done on the forum:

• our new theme is based on Vanilla (completly NEW design)
• transliteration hack for russian urls
• new buttons in front-end composer-editor
• our own user custom information plugin

Forum was made for support of our main project - portal Homo Info - set of esoteric and astrological online services that helps a person to learn more about oneself, to make his life better. Currently our website is on russian languague only, we are working on english version.
Our website was written on NodeJS, CoffeeScript with MongoDB and MySQL.

[Solved] Clear browser cache.

Hi!

I just have installed nodebb and trying to modify theme.
I found strange bug that makes modifying of theme useless.
Here is step by step explanation on how to obtain it:

1. fresh install (theme vanilla)
2. At Admin panel - write "Site title" and checkbox "Show Title in Header" and press save button.
3. Chose bootstrap theme at Admin - themes/skins
4. Edit homo.tpl of vanilla theme - copy/past from classic theme to obtain "list design" of categories.
5. restart NodeBB.

What's happening next:

• click on breadcrumb "home" - you will get default rectangular categories view and any changes at home.tpl is ignored.
  You will get the same result when clicking on Site Title link (site title - NodeBB by default). After page reloading everything
  becomes normally - I can see my custom design.
• trying to chose any category on home page - goes inside it - the same thins - I see default design and after page refreshing it becomes custom.

What you advise to do?
