NodeBB 1.19.3

Solved Performance
  • @DownPW I’ve not upgraded yet but will do so at some point today.

    EDIT- just upgraded. Not seeing any slowness yet, but will continue to monitor 😕

  • 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, I’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 it’s a plugin on which they had big problems that was in question. (emoji)

  • @DownPW Looking at the error message, I’d say you’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 that’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 😉

  • @DownPW 8ms is nothing - less than one second… ?

  • @phenomlab

    you not see at the good place 🙂
    EDIT:

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

    coincidence? Emoji CSS failed !
    I don’t believe

    I think we put the finger on something

  • @DownPW Yes, you’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

    @Panda said in Sidebar Widget is no longer on the side!:

    Ah, so sidebar wont work on mobile?

    Correct. If you review the docs on bootstrap, you’ll notice that it is designed on a grid system

    https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/layout/grid/

    What I mean by changing the category is moving it on here to general as you posted it in bugs, when it isn’t.

    @Panda category is for a category in its own, so for example, “fruit” whereas categories is the page that contains all categories as a list.

    @mventures Yes, exactly. The other icon will restart NodeBB whilst the first icon I referenced will rebuild (recompile) it.

    The huge strength of NodeBB over Flarum (for example) is that the code is precompiled, and called once at boot. PHP’s code has to repeatedly reload code from source making it much slower.

    @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.

    Seems to be better with some scaling fix for redis on redis.conf. I haven’t seen the message yet since the changes I made

    # I increase it to the value of /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn tcp-backlog 4096 # I'm uncommenting because it can slow down Redis. Uncommented by default !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #save 900 1 #save 300 10 #save 60 10000

    If you have other Redis optimizations. I take all your advice

    @cagatay JS will work fine - no changes there, and there are no plans to drop support for jQuery. More of an issue is the CSS - for which there are quite a few breaking changes. Keep an eye on sudonix.dev (my development site) where you can see progress in relation to how I am tackling the compatibility issues.
