Advanced Developer Install - rake db:create db:migrate bug

[rishabh]

That guide is meant for setting up development environments…and not production servers. For servers, we only officially support our Docker guides: discourse/docs/INSTALL.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

@Neptun

RAILS_ENV=production

I don’t think it is reliable or even possible to install Discourse on a prod server using a guide meant for development purposes.

Why do you only officially support Docker?

Hosting Rails applications is complicated. Even if you already have Postgres, Redis and Ruby installed on your server, you still need to worry about running and monitoring your Sidekiq and Rails processes, as well as configuring Nginx. With Docker, our fully optimized Discourse configuration is available to you in a simple container, along with a web-based GUI that makes upgrading to new versions of Discourse as easy as clicking a button.

Maybe you could try to work around the ISP problem or try hosting Discourse with an external provider?
