That guide is intended for web developers who need a development copy of Discourse in a local Ubuntu computer, is this what you want?

If you want to spin up a Discourse for production, where other people can visit and post into, you should follow discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

Are you sure you posted the entire error log? Because that seems like your computer is busy compiling v8. Does it never finish even if you give it quite some time?
