Hi! I am running an Ubuntu 18.04 server with Apache installed. I am wanting to install Discourse on a different port then use a reverse proxy via apache to make it accessible via a URL. I tried making an app.yml & changing the settings in there then ran: ./launcher rebuild app and everything goes well until the end where I get a ‘Failed’ error with this: FAILED Pups::ExecError: cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c ‘bundle exec rake themes:update assets:precompile’ failed w ith return # Location of failure: /pups/lib/pups/exec_command.rb:112:in `spawn’ exec failed with the params {“cd”=>“$home”, “hook”=>“assets_precompile”, “cmd”=>[“su discourse -c ‘bundle exec rake t hemes:update assets:precompile’”]} 2beda643ff51279f145c96cdede83a1d6b65f67e00225be74100c8fb9fe3f790 ** FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP ** please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one. ./discourse-doctor may help diagnose the problem. I tried using discourse-doctor but this told me nothing. Does anyone have a way to fix this? Also, I am using Apache as I find it easier to use and have more experience with Apache. So switching to Nginx isn’t an option.

[תמונה] kianwalters05: JavaScript heap out of memory Your server doesn’t have enough RAM to install Discourse. What is your memory and swap capacity?

Can you [תמונה] kianwalters05: please scroll up and look for earlier error messages ? We really need to earlier log lines in order to provide any meaningful help.

Just attached them, sorry :slight_smile:

It has 8GB memory and 10GB swap. By the looks of it my system isnt using swap.

Are the current application using all available memory and swappiness configured to never happen? Since I don’t see any other reports I think it’s something on your server.

Hi! I have 8GB memory, 10 GB swap. Im running ./launcher rebuild app and the RAM is sat at 3.4GB RAM and no swap. Im using htop and swap just says OK/10.00G. Not sure if this means swap is working or not.

on HTOP swap says OK/10.00G. Not sure what this means. And the RAM is sat at 3.4G ish whilst running ./launcher rebuild app.

I think it has worked. I closed Clamd with sigterm using htop. The end has a docker ID. So im guessing its worked. Edit: Seems to be working fine. I have loaded it via IP and port and it shows up fine! Just gotta setup the reverse proxy and its all done. Thanks for the help @Falco & @pfaffman :slight_smile:

Also, I want to disable SSL on Discourse so it doesnt require a port. Can I disable it on Discourse and enable it on a reverse proxy, where I have the cert on my machine, etc

Yes, you just need to remove the first few lines on the app.yml file. The one with ssl on it and the one with letsencrypt.

[תמונה] Falco: Yes, you just need to remove the first few lines on the app.yml file. The one with ssl on it and the one with letsencrypt . How would I go about doing it with an apache reverse proxy using SSL? And Can I remove the 443:443 line in app.yml also?

If you don’t receive the test email at /admin/email it’s not right . You can change the SMTP setting in the app.yml and fix any mistakes.
