Year thats right. It would work with no probs. But I prefer it this way to be more clean imho.

Glad to see. We won.
Don't forget to prepend your OP with [solved].

server {
	listen 80;
	server_name bikenode.com;
	location / {

	    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
	    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
	    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
	    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

		proxy_pass http:127.0.0.1:4567/;
	    proxy_redirect off;

	  	proxy_http_version 1.1;
	   	proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
	   	proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
	}
}

add a ; after proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"
So it should look like the above now.

And one more time to pastebin:
cat /var/log/nginx/error.log

root@15:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# rm bikenode.com
root@15:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# ln -sf /etc/nginx/sites-available/bikenode.com -T /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bikenode.com
root@15:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# service nginx restart

Jear its not wise to use relative links there. Try this way.

@termnml

root@15:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# ls -la /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 22 04:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Nov 22 04:14 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 Nov 22 04:21 bikenode.com -> /etc/nginx/sites-available/yourAppUrl.com

Ah okay. The link is wrong

root@15:# cd /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
root@15:# rm ./bikenode.com
root@15:# ln -sf /etc/nginx/sites-available/bikenode.com -T /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bikenode.com 
root@15:# service nginx restart

The two nginx names are okay.
What says ls -la /etc/nginx/sites-enabled ?
Maybe a broken link. Nginx would(should XD) complain. But better check.

Just do

root@15:~# ln -sf /etc/nginx/sites-available/bikenode.com -T /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bikenode.com 
root@15:~# /etc/init.d/nginx restart

@departman
Oh right. Stupid brain.

now I'm realy confused. At least node should be listed O.o
Since it is running http://bikenode.com:4567/

The location for the files is prepended by a /.
For your aim it has to be removed. source

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/stylesheet.css?xxxxx">

to

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css?xxxxx">

For this to work code would have to be rewritten. Good luck with this.

Why do you want to make your live harder with constantly avoiding subdomains.
They are much cleaner. And I think "the officials" will not come to "rescue" you.

Could you paste logs for nginx (pastebin)?
pastebin: option Paste Exposure: Unlisted

Try to reach your normal domain and then do:

tail /var/log/nginx/error.log 
tail /var/log/nginx/access.log

I dont believe so. Im terrible with this stuff and was following the nodebb for dummies installation.

Was Apache installed on your system or nginx already?

Could it be that you started with a LAMP setup and wanted to switch to nginx (because it is so awesome :D)?

This sir is never a good idee
For such configs is always root needed.
And don't give this access to "some guys" on the internet.

Latest Ubuntu? On a server? For production? O.o arg

I dont think it has anything to do with the configs.
Otherwise nginx would complaining.
I'm curious that your port 80 isn't visible to the outside at all.

Which system is running?
Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS?

Ah i like the forward-thinking of the nodebb guys.

Some application might leverage the best of both (MongoDB and Redis), where in this setup the Redis will act as the caching DB while MongoDB as the main DB. Kinda the same as HDD+SSD hybrid setup. You store the most frequently used stuffs on the SSD for faster access (hot storage), while the less used ones on the HDD (cold storage).

It never occurred to me. It's a great idea, overall.

@kevin
That your domain is resolved to your IP adress is not the work of nginx. That does the DNS service for you.
The Check depends on your server. If you manage it all your own eg root-server. Check: iptables -L -n
If the output is very long simply do a iptables -L -n | grep :80

If your firewall is set by any software/interface of your provider, you have to look there.
