    Running nodeBB on v6 of MongoDB and tried to upgrade to v7
    Is there any benefit to upgrading?

    Anyway I did
    sudo apt update
    and saw these lines (which still references v6?)
    …https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/6.0 InRelease
    Hit:10 https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu jammy/mongodb-org/6.0 Release

    Then
    sudo apt upgrade mongodb
    didnt work

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree... Done
    Reading state information... Done
    Package mongodb is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source
    
    E: Package 'mongodb' has no installation candidate
    

    Can anyone explain what failed there?

    Just to add, the server is running Ubuntu. I read something once about Ubuntu having its own list of where it gets updates from?
    Im not sure if that is the case, and is relevant

    @Panda yes, Ubuntu does have its own PPA repository for most software, but not for mongodb. This should help in terms of the upgrade

    @phenomlab ok thanks, so any idea what caused it not to upgrade?

    @Panda if you used the Ubuntu PPA, I think this only goes as far as 6.x if I recall correctly.

    @cagatay as @downpw stated, there isn’t a native tool that will do this for you. You’d need to either develop your own or ask the nodebb team to assist which will be a paid exercise.

    @Panda said in Spam spam spam: ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant. It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not. @Panda said in Spam spam spam: It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.

    @crazycells it is, yes - I think I’ll leave it as there is no specific PWA CSS classes I know of. Well, you could use something like the below, but this means multiple CSS files for different operating systems. /** * Determine the mobile operating system. * This function returns one of 'iOS', 'Android', 'Windows Phone', or 'unknown'. * * @returns {String} */ function getMobileOperatingSystem() { var userAgent = navigator.userAgent || navigator.vendor || window.opera; // Windows Phone must come first because its UA also contains "Android" if (/windows phone/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Windows Phone"; } if (/android/i.test(userAgent)) { return "Android"; } if (/iPad|iPhone|iPod/.test(userAgent) && !window.MSStream) { return "iOS"; } return "unknown"; // return “Android” - one should either handle the unknown or fallback to a specific platform, let’s say Android } Once you’re in that rabbit hole, it’s impossible to get out of it.

    Use this code git fetch # Grab the latest code from the NodeBB repository git checkout v3.x git reset --hard origin/v3.x And you will have the latest version without specifying it https://docs.nodebb.org/configuring/upgrade/

    @Panda because there is no match for the DNS entry specified. The receiving web server parses the headers looking for a destination hostname to match, and anything the web server is unable to resolve will be sent back to the root.

    @Panda said in Upgrade to NodeBB v3? 2BB or not 2BB, that is the question!: So although thats a plugin it has Widget like element and stopped working on the Theme change Which is normal based on the widgets being reset when you change themes.
