Versions tested: 0.6.x & latest git master
Server: Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS (DigitalOcean, after dist-upgrade)
Mongo version: 3.0.1 (from mongodb-org package on official MongoDB repo)
I cannot seem to get ./nodebb setup to complete with mongo as the server. I'm following this process:
- type
mongo,use nodebb, anddb.createUser({user: "nodebb", pwd: "passhere", roles: ["readWrite"]}). - edit /etc/mongod.conf, uncomment
auth = trueline. service mongod restartas root. Successful, and I can typemongo nodebbfollowed byshow usersand see my nodebb user.- clone NodeBB, run
npm installsuccessfully, run./nodebb setup.
Here's what happens in the mongo configuration section:

I'm very comfortable in Node, and thought it was weird that the stack trace didn't have an error message. So I jumped into the code to debug, and the actual error there is that it's not succeeding to authenticate with the database. However, I can launch mongo -u nodebb -p passhere nodebb and connect with no issue.
What REALLY blows my freakin' mind is this mongo log of everything that happens during setup -- note each connection saying Successfully authenticated as principal nodebb on nodebb:

So I thought "What if I disable authentication?" I turned that switch back off, restarted mongo, ran through ./nodebb setup with a blank username and password, and viola! I make it through! But only to the next step, where everything just hangs right here:

23/3 22:36 [6967] - info: Populating database with default configs, if not already set...
After more debugging, I see that NodeBB is trying to set a collection of keys to a certain default value by checking to see if that key exists before setting it. It's asking mongo, all at once, for the current value of that list of keys, and not getting a single response. It just hangs. The callback never gets called.
I'm losing my mind here... especially because no one else seems to be having this problem, but my install is so vanilla that I can't imagine where I'm going wrong. Any help is appreciated!
