Hi,

When integrating the Twitter Alternative Logins, I had a problem with the callback URL being localhost:4567. How can I change it?

Thanks,
Lewis

Hi,

As much as I'd like to say this was helpful, it wasn't. The most help I got was from the guy who told me how to open the folder.

With that being said, I am nowhere near. The main cause of this is probably me and I blame myself for that. I will be now hoping to get an Ubuntu Server from HostingItAll, and they will be helping me set up NodeBB!

Thanks for all that you guys could do.

@YaBoiLewis You can try 0.0.0.0:4567 or localhost:4567. Both should work.

Hi,

This is not running on my local machine. It's running on a server hosted by a company. How do I access then? As much as I know is that localhost is for your own machine (stated on your IP Address).

@charles said:

@YaBoiLewis Yes you can now open a web browser and type the address shown to start the configuration.

Hi,

Is it the address of the Ubuntu Server or 0.0.0.0:4567?

@charles said:

@YaBoiLewis you will need to use cd followed by your nodebb folder name

example: cd nodebb

Hi,

Thanks!

Was this supposed to happen?

This is a community forum not a paid tech support, regardless you seem to be not in the nodebb installation folder, go to the installation folder and then run npm start

Hi,

I was not saying this is a paid support. I was just saying that I needed help real quick, sorry if it was misunderstood.

The main reason I am asking for help is that I am nowhere experienced in Linux commands. Although, I am experienced in other coding languages, Linux is not the one. Please give me commands to enter so I can go in the NodeBB Installation Folder.

Thanks,
Lewis

Hi,

I was following the instructions on NodeBBDocs when after the very last steps, nothing happened. It stopped where the instructions below stop. This made me worried, so I restarted the connection and did npm start. It gave me errors :

Installation Guide - Error occurred where the guide finishes.

The following installation guide is optimised for Ubuntu LTS versions, and will install NodeBB with MongoDB as the data store. Currently at the time of writing, the latest available Ubuntu LTS version is 14.04.

First, install the LTS version of Node.js (v4.2 Argon):

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
Next, we’ll install the dependencies required by NodeBB

$ sudo apt-get install -y git nodejs mongodb build-essential
If you want to use Redis or another database instead of MongoDB please look at the Configuring Databases section.

Next, clone NodeBB into your desired location. If you don’t know where, your home directory is acceptable:

$ cd ~ # Optional $ git clone -b v1.0.0 https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git nodebb
You’ll want to replace v1.0.0 with the (latest stable version), or v1.x.x if you’d like to set up the latest weekly build of NodeBB.

Obtain all of the dependencies required by NodeBB:

$ cd nodebb $ npm install --production
Start the NodeBB Web Installer, and continue setup at http://127.0.0.1:4567, and select “MongoDB” as your database type.

$ npm start
