NodeBB 1.19.3

Solved Performance
  • Seems to be my VM virtual disk the problem.

    I try to reinstall Nodebb, very odd i have an internal server error

    here is what I do:

    #
    # Installing Node.js
    #
    
    apt install curl
    curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
    sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
    
    #
    # Database: # Installing MongoDB
    #
    
    V5
    curl -sSL https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-5.0.asc  -o mongoserver.asc
    gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ./mongo_key_temp.gpg --import ./mongoserver.asc
    gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring ./mongo_key_temp.gpg --export > ./mongoserver_key.gpg
    sudo mv mongoserver_key.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/
    
    wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-5.0.asc | sudo apt-key add -
    
    echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian buster/mongodb-org/5.0 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-5.0.list
    
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
    
    sudo systemctl start mongod
    sudo systemctl status mongod
    
    mongo
    use admin
    > db.createUser( { user: "admin", pwd: "nodebb", roles: [ { role: "root", db: "admin" } ] } )
    
    use nodebb
    > db.createUser( { user: "nodebb", pwd: "nodebb", roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "nodebb" }, { role: "clusterMonitor", db: "admin" } ] } )
    
    quit()
    
    sudo nano /etc/mongod.conf
    	security:
    		authorization: enabled
    
    sudo systemctl restart mongod
    
    
    #
    # Installing NodeBB
    #
    
    sudo apt install -y git
    
    cd /home/nodebb
    git clone -b v1.18.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git nodebb
    cd nodebb
    
    ./nodebb setup
    ./nodebb start
    

    very odd

  • @DownPW And did that work ?

  • nope, i have test the installation for 2 times

    this error when access:

    internal server error

    very odd, Iโ€™ve never had any problems when installing nodebb

  • @DownPW If you issue ./nodebb start does this work if you then issue ./nodebb log ? Sounds like a NGINX issue to me

  • No nginx conf

    ./nodebb sytart = no error

    ./nodebb log when i access

  • @DownPW Potentially dumb question, but why is the path /home/nodebb/nodebb ?

    Also, why are you trying to install the 18.x branch when you should be using 19.x ?

    I see

    cd /home/nodebb
    git clone -b v1.18.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git nodebb
    cd nodebb
    

    This should be

    cd /home/nodebb
    git clone -b v1.19.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git nodebb
    cd nodebb
    
  • I have test to install 1.19.x too and i have error too

  • @DownPW and you are executing ./nodebb setup from the correct directory ?

  • I think they really have a problem on the github and coincidentally itโ€™s a plugin on which they had big problems that was in question. (emoji)

  • @DownPW Looking at the error message, Iโ€™d say youโ€™re right.

  • @phenomlab

    here a gif for the problem of perf.
    On a clean install of nodeBB on a clean install server VM

    The problem is just when I refresh the page entierly or ACP access

    alt text

    No problem on 1.18.x or 1.19.2

    very odd

  • @DownPW Looks like thatโ€™s waiting for a response from something. Have you run this site through the F12 developer tools -> Network tab to see where the delay is ?

  • @phenomlab

    Thanks for the tip

    chance ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • @DownPW 8ms is nothing - less than one secondโ€ฆ ?

  • @phenomlab

    you not see at the good place ๐Ÿ™‚
    EDIT:

    dcba37d8-db4f-4b8d-93a9-ac883171bebc-image.png

    coincidence? Emoji CSS failed !
    I donโ€™t believe

    I think we put the finger on something

  • @DownPW Yes, youโ€™re right. For some strange reason, that CSS file is not being served - but should be on your server if you check the path.

  • yes it still here

    EDIT:

    I have remove the directory when I have the problem of install with 1.18.x

    But when I upgrade to 1.19.3, he have reinstalled by default

  • @DownPW I see this

    @phenomlab thank you very much for the assistance Mark, massively appreciated as always.

    The great thing about this is itโ€™s all documented for other NodeBB users that come looking for solutions ๐Ÿ˜ƒ.

    Looks far better ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป.

    @Panda Itโ€™s the best itโ€™s ever been to be honest. Iโ€™ve used a myriad of systems in the past - most notably, WordPress, and then Flarum (which for SEO, was absolutely dire - they never even had SEO out of the box, and relied on a third party extension to do it), and NodeBB easily fares the best - see below example

    https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asudonix.org&oq=site%3Asudonix.org&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60j69i58j69i60l2.9039j0j3&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#ip=1

    However, this was not without significant effort on my part once Iโ€™d migrated from COM to ORG - see below posts

    https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17286/google-crawl-error-after-site-migration/17?_=1688461250365

    And also

    https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/221027803?hl=en&msgid=221464164

    It was painful to say the least - as it turns out, there was an issue in NodeBB core that prevented spiders from getting to content, which as far as I understand, is now fixed. SEO in itself is a dark art - a black box that nobody really fully understands, and itโ€™s essentially going to boil down to one thing - โ€œcontentโ€.

    Googleโ€™s algorithm for indexing has also changed dramatically over the years. They only now crawl content that has value, so if it believes that your site has nothing to offer, it will simply skip it.

    @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but canโ€™t fetch API:

    How did you drop that widget into the post there?
    I hadnt seen this BSgenerator anywhere on sudonix site, do you use it somewhere already?

    Yes, here

    https://sudonix.org/topic/414/corporate-bullshit-generator?_=1687774393044

    Itโ€™s not a โ€œpostโ€ or โ€œtopicโ€ in the common sense. It is actually a page in itโ€™s own right and leverages nodebb-plugin-custom-pages. This in turn creates a new โ€œrouteโ€ which behaves like a page, meaning it is then exposed for widgets.

    @Panda said in Interesting Widget code, but canโ€™t fetch API:

    Also can you explain more what you mean by calling the code externally. In my API call example, how would I go about doing that?

    By this, I mean create all the required code in an external JS file that is reachable by the NodeBB instance - so, in โ€œpublicโ€ for example - or in my case /public/js. The widget then โ€œcallsโ€ that file and because it runs outside of the scope of NodeBB, you just need to return the values to the widget.

    Hope this makes sense?

    @crazycells hi - no security reason, or anything specific in this case. However, the nginx.conf I posted was from my Dev environment which uses this port as a way of not interfering with production.

    And yes, I use clustering on this site with three instances.

    @cagatay youโ€™ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example

    body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; }

    Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.
