Hi. I know it is recommended to run discourse on it’s own server but I am running this project out of my own pocket, and it is basically a hobby with little prospects or intention of monetization in the short term at least. So I was thinking instead of buying another VPS to to just request a seco…

If you are familiar with reverse proxy configuration, you don’t need the second IP. You can run both Discourse and Wordpress listening on unix sockets (or higher ports) and run a reverse proxy software in front (I recommend Caddy) to serve on the same IP your blog.example.com and forum.example.com. …

Can that setup you recommend work without issues? I did something with haproxy when I was initially trying discourse. I was somewhat of a noob and still am in matters of servers and stuff but did anyway, and learned a bit about haproxy in the process. If I recall correctly there were issues with S…

[image] chi_noti_info: So my question is it possible to do the configuration you recommend without instability and “funny” issues? Yes, if you properly configure you reverse proxy it is possible. That is how this site right here is run. What we can’t do is offer support to every reverse prox…

Awesome! Last petition: can you link me to some help documentation to do this configuration?

Nginx Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse Caddy Use Caddy instead of NGINX as your reverse proxy Apache Set up Discourse on a server with existing Apache sites

Lovely. I remember when I did my trials I followed the apache guide. What is nor clear from the article is whether SSL should be disabled upon rebuilding discourse (and whether disabling it is accomplished by just not entering an email address for let’s encrypt), and what ports should be “exposed” …

If you are not familiar with reverse proxies, and you can get a second IP easily, then that’s not a bad solution. Just do something like this: expose: - "192.168.1.1:80:80" # http - "192.168.1.1:443:443" # https

You can do the same trick with Configure direct-delivery incoming email for self-hosted sites with Mail-Receiver .

Thank you this didi it for me. My VPS provider offers inexpensive “floating IPs” in addition to the main IP configured on the VPS. This solution is very neat for me. It should be better documented as it is so simple. expose: - "my_floating_ip:80:80" - "my_floating_ip:443:443"
