Is this still possibly on the table for 1.0?

Thanks for all the help!

For anyone else with this issue, the end solution was setting up the server via SSH not using the web console, shutting down nodebb with ./nodebb stop

running:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:chris-lea/redis-server

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install redis-server

to update redis, then starting nodebb back up using

./nodebb start
