Best solution to this npm issue is;

sudo npm config set ca ""

then

sudo npm config set strict-ssl false
sudo npm update npm -g
sudo npm config set strict-ssl true

all should work normally after that.

Sub-forums are a real must have.

Very nice work.

Hey people, I am extremely new to node.js, NodeBB & dokku but I've been trying to set up a nodeBB forum on my dokku image on digital ocean and although I have set up redis to work with the app when I run --setup it fails to connect to it, anyone else using a setup like this and any pointers for getting it working. The error I get is this;

error: Redis connection to [IP ADDRESS] failed - connect ECONNREFUSED

I have redis setup and dokku has linked the container to my forum container, I pass the correct IP & port during setup but the connection fails, I'm at a bit of a loss.

Regardless of peoples feelings about enforcing real name policy having it as an administrator option is a boon for the platform as a whole.

This is a very nice step indeed.

Ok here is the email they just fired back.

Hello,

We do not have plans that I am aware of for this image but I would recommend that the devs contact us at contact@digitalocean.com to see if we can put something together.

Thanks
Ryan

FIXED IT!

Just need to add some extra proxy settings to my sites configuration in nginx once I was on a suitably up to date version.

Thanks for the pointers.

Already answered in your other thread.

Fully agree that there should be a demo site running, keep it on the last release and reset it once a day.

You have to clear your browser cache.

You need to clear the database you are using, for redis you could use the flushdb command and for mongodb I believe it DropDatabase.

I have invites as well but don't know a single person who still uses OSX.

Noticed on this site when I click the Unread button the mark all read icon is black with a Mark_All_Read text that does nothing, if you then F5 the page it loads normally.

That would give serious issues if you had two posts with the same title.

If it's a standard ubuntu 12.04 droplet from Digital ocean you probably don't have a web server installed yet, install a current version of nginx (not from the standard ubuntu repository) and set it up to reverse proxy your nodebb app to port 80. there are plenty of good guides on this on the digital ocean support pages.

It would be nice to have a toggle in the ACP but make sure you have a big warning next to it.

This isn't for nodeBB, it's another project, but with nodeBB you could still use forever to monitor the nodeBB launcher for redundancy.

Is there a decent alternative to forever that will watch for file changes since the lack of documentation with forever is more than a little annoying.

I've been trying to set up forever to monitor a nodejs project and to restart when I update files but I've been running into issues. I need forvere to ignore some files and I noticed a couple of references to a .foreverignore file you can use to do this but have found no documentation about it's syntax or how to use it. Anyone have any experience with this or can you offer a good alternative?
