Just installed Cronicle with Node v8 LTS

[shammishailaj]

Summary

I have installed cronicle as per the one line installation on website and have it running via NGINX as web-proxy. I am not able to find any logs anywhere that would help me.. As per my browser and nginx logs, all i see is hits to this url:

GET /socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=websocket HTTP/1.1" 101 92 "

The title bar on the browser says "Loading..."

Steps to reproduce the problem

Install Node V8 LTS on ubuntu 16.04 LTS and the use the onliner command to install. In the configuration, leave the configuration as is. start the server and see for your self. Have NGINX proxy via your domain name to localhost:3012.

Nginx Config:

server {
listen 80;
server_name cronicle.example.co.in;

#charset koi8-r;
access_log  /var/log/nginx/cronicle.example.co.in.access.log  main;
error_log /var/log/nginx/cronicle.example.co.in.error.log;

location / {
    auth_basic "Example Classified 009";
    auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/keys/edeck.example.co.in;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3012;
}

Hmmm, I've never used nginx, so I don't know what the problem is. But you should check out this issue here, which talks about using proxies:

#83

Try enabling polling on this setting:

https://github.com/jhuckaby/Cronicle#socket_io_transports

Perhaps your nginx configuration doesn't allow WebSockets, so maybe polling will do the trick.

Good luck!

[shammishailaj]

I will try that and get back to you soon on that.

For anyone else stumbling across this issue, ensure the following is removed from your nginx server location setting:

Remove:

server {
        location / {
                try_files $uri $uri/ =404; # remove this
        ...

I had other problems with Node v8. Try to upgrade to v10 at least.

[jhuckaby]

Yup, at this point I'd recommend Node v12 or 14.
