Clustering for NodeBB enabled

[phenomlab]

Hi All,

We’ve recently implemented clustering for NodeBB which, owing to the nature of the configuration, and the need to use redis to validate session data, you may not be able to login.

To work around this issue, simply clear your browser cache and then attempt the login again. If you don’t really want to clear your entire cache, it’s possible just to clear one site:

1. Go to https://sudonix.com
2. Press F12 to load the browser tools
3. Press and hold the refresh button in your browser

4. Choose “Empty cache and hard reload”
5. Disable F12 developer tools
6. Login again

This works for any Webkit (Chome) backed browser. Other browsers may differ slightly.

Thanks

As usual, let me know if any issues.

I had to clear cookies to access the site and the login page went in a redirect loop. now everything works well.

@Hari thanks. Pretty much as I said in the original post

Given what is happening with Redis, is there an alternative for NodeBB like Valkey for example

I am asking because I am setting up a new server.

@DownPW good question. I suspect if the worst comes to it, Redis will be forked from the community perspective but I don’t know of any currently.

Redis will be

There is alternative like Valkey but I don’t know if it is compatible with nodeBB.
NodeBB don’t update his documentation for this subjetct…

@DownPW looks like Valkey is in fact a fork of redis
