@baris restarting an rebuilding does not appear to fix the problem. I had the HTML and socket.io logging set on (not that it applies to this I know) and went to turn it back off and got the following error: TypeError: stream.end is not a function at Object.Logger.close (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/logger.js:102:10) at Object.Logger.setup_one_log (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/logger.js:68:10) at Object.Logger.setup_one (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/logger.js:50:10) at Object.Logger.monitorConfig (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/logger.js:111:9) at Config.setMultiple (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/socket.io/admin/config.js:42:11) at runMicrotasks (<anonymous>) at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5) at async onMessage (/home/nodebb/nodebb_root/src/socket.io/index.js:150:19) Also getting lots of language errors for the question and answer plugin Missing translation "qanda:topic_unsolved" for language "en-GB" Missing translation "qanda:topic_solved" for language "en-GB" Missing translation "qanda:menu.unsolved" for language "en-GB" Since upgrading to 1.16.2 I have a string of issues - maybe they are all related to something fundamental? This is the current versions I am running: System Nodebb 1.16.2 Mongod 4.0.20 Redis version 4.0.9 Node v12.21.0 nginx 1.16.1 npm 6.14.11

Since 1.16.2 (possibly before but no one mentioned it) We have been getting this desktop notifications popup for users on first registration: [image: 1617185312927-b7a8f142-ad06-4242-aa2d-677289c82586-image.png] the desktop notifications plugin is showing as the latest version: 0.3.3 is anyone else seeing this issue?

Further update - Problem appears to be fixed. One difference in browser errors is the prepareFooter error: Uncaught ReferenceError: highlight is not defined at HTMLDocument.prepareFooter ((index):3508) Further digging showed that the prepareFooter() is where custom javascript is placed and that was the issue. Custom java script was breaking the page during prepareFooter() which killed the reply functionality (along with a lot of other things). The java script was there to add functionality to highlight.js for syntax highlighting. now to dig into what has changed with highlight.js in the latest version.

@TonyTony Make sure you have updated in the nodebb configuration with the property "isCluster": true When you use auto sclaing(HPA) of NodeBB, this is must. Otherwise you will end with lot of inconsistency in the API responses. Note: This property will help if you use on Redis as your DB(not with the conbination of Mongo+Redis) Thanks for the details mentioned in this post https://community.nodebb.org/topic/15517/nodebb-mongodb-scaling-k8s/16

@TonyTony this would be best accomplished through a plugin, to restrict access to certain tags to specific users, or user groups. If you're interested in sponsoring this plugin you can reach out to us, [email protected]
