NodeBB 3.0 alpha1 : Error on install

Solved Configure
  • Hello @phenomlab

    I want to test alpha1 for V3 for test JS, theme switcher, css themes, etc.

    I have upgraded my dev environnement to 2.8.1
    I follow this link : https://community.nodebb.org/post/89581

    So, hop !

    cd /path/to/your/nodebb
    git rev-parse HEAD  # save this value in case you need to roll back  --- 727f879e5b1698fcf9bdbaca5181b28d0e9497fd
    git fetch && git checkout bootstrap5
    git reset --hard v3.0.0-alpha.1
    ./nodebb upgrade -mi
    

    But 😞

    nodebb@node:~$ cd /home/nodebb/nodebb/
    nodebb@node:~/nodebb$ git rev-parse HEAD
    727f879e5b1698fcf9bdbaca5181b28d0e9497fd

    An idea ?

  • @DownPW you should remove the plugins quoted in that list - for example

    nodebb-plugin-emoji@4.0.6
    

    Then try the upgrade process again.

  • @phenomlab

    npm remove nodebb-plugin
    

    ?

  • @phenomlab

    test with npm remove nodebb-plugin-emoji@4.0.6

  • @DownPW yes, exactly. You can then install the updated (and compliant) v3 versions after the upgrade process completed successfully.

  • @DownPW looks like a permissions issue?

  • @phenomlab I’m on root maybe that

    EDit: nope idem on non root user

  • @DownPW can you try with just

    npm remove nodebb-plugin-emoj
    
  • @phenomlab said in NodeBB 3.0 alpha1 : Error on install:

    npm remove nodebb-plugin-emoj

    nope

  • @DownPW can you provide an output of the currently installed plugins before upgrade?

  • @phenomlab https://community.nodebb.org/topic/16721/nodebb-v3-0-0-alpha-1-an-alpha-release/29

    maybe a problem with depot permissions.
    I wait a answer by Pitag or other nodebb staff

  • @DownPW yes, I saw that this morning. You could still try and remove those plugins which aren’t compliant though.

  • @phenomlab

    Hourra I’m on V3 🙂

    here the solution for installation :

    cd /path/to/your/nodebb
    git rev-parse HEAD  # save this value in case you need to roll back  --- 727f879e5b1698fcf9bdbaca5181b28d0e9497fd
    git fetch && git checkout bootstrap5
    git reset --hard v3.0.0-alpha.3
    npm config set legacy-peer-deps true
    ./nodebb upgrade -mi
    ./nodebb build
    ./nodebb start
    

    A lot of things doesn’t work with new Personna Bootstrap 5 like theme Switcher selector for example

    –> Could I count on you to help me evolve the things we created together for Persona5 or Harmony? Like footerbar, theme Switcher selector, welcome message with image change ?

    –> Other things, Harmony theme not include on alpha ?

  • @DownPW said in NodeBB 3.0 alpha1 : Error on install:

    A lot of things doesn’t work with new Personna Bootstrap 5 like theme Switcher selector for example

    It does work, but needs minor tweaks as the existing listener doesn’t work under bootstrap 5 as it did under bootstrap 3. Nothing major to fix.

    Of course you can count on me. I’ll be in the same journey 🙂

    Harmony isn’t available yet from what I’ve read - not until beta releases I think.

    ✈

    haha that doesn’t surprise me. Thank you again for that my friend 👍 ♥

    I still hesitate between staying under Persona 5 or Harmony.

    I will decide when I can test it

  • DownPWundefined DownPW has marked this topic as solved on
  • @DownPW I’m going to test harmony. I quite like the look. However, I did start a topic to discuss this. Would appreciate input

    https://sudonix.com/topic/397/nodebb-v3-and-harmony-theme

  • @DownPW very odd. I don’t recall setting permissions there but try now.


Did this solution help you?
Did you find the suggested solution useful? Why not buy me a coffee? It's a nice gesture, and a great way to show your appreciation 💗

    @DownPW Yes, it is. It’s set far too low meaning other elements with a higher preference will sit over the top of it.

    @mventures You’d need to connect to the server and execute it directly - not on your local terminal. Review the guide below, which will show you how to gain access via SSH to your server

    https://docs.ovh.com/gb/en/dedicated/ssh-introduction/

    Once you have access, you’ll need to navigate to the actual folder where NodeBB is installed

    You’ll then need to change to the directory as shown below

    /home/unbuntu/nodebb

    fdffe673-bf63-4b6d-a728-5506fddc1aff-image.png

    In most cases, initial access takes you to the root of the file system. You can always issue pwd in a Linux terminal which will show you the Present Working Directory. From there, you can issue the command

    cd /home/ubuntu/nodebb

    Once in the NodeBB directory, you’d use the below commands

    ./nodebb stop git fetch && git checkout develop && git reset --hard origin/develop ./nodebb upgrade ./nodebb start

    Line 1 stops the NodeBB instance
    Line 2 gets the latest files from GIT (repository) and then checks out the development branch. It then resets the version you are using to the development branch ready for v3
    Line 3 Runs the upgrade once the new branch is set, and code pulled
    Line 4 Restarts the NodeBB instance after the upgrade has completed

    Note that when you restart NodeBB and log back in, things will look very different to what you had in v2.

    @DownPW sure. Let me have a look at this in more detail. I know nginx plus has extensive support for this, but it’s not impossible to get somewhere near acceptable with the standard version.

    You might be better off handling this at the Cloudflare level given that it sits in between the requesting client and your server.

    @eeeee said in restarting nodebb on boot:

    can I just run nodebb under nodemon for auto restarts?

    It’s a better method. Nodemon just looks for file system changes and would effectively die if the server was rebooted meaning you’d have to start it again anyway. Systemd is the defacto standard which is how the operating system interacts in terms of services, scheduled tasks etc.

    @RiekMedia hi. Just following up on this thread (I know it’s old) but was curious to understand if it’s still an issue or not ?
