AI-generated summary
The user dowo is unable to run the setup for Discourse due to missing directories, specifically containers. maiki identifies that the user has cloned the wrong repository (discourse instead of discourse_docker). maiki provides the correct repository URL and commands to fix the issue. dowo mentions difficulties with directory creation and a desire to learn for future modifications. pfaffman advises using sudo su - and following the official installation steps carefully, noting the user’s typo (cs instead of cd).
From /var/discourse please list contents (ls), and check if the directory is there:
[maiki@disc discourse_docker]$ ls
bin discourse-doctor launcher samples templates
cids discourse-setup LICENSE scripts tests
containers image README.md shared
Ah, I see. You’ve got the wrong the repo:
sudo -s
git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker.git /var/discourse
cd /var/discourse
chmod 700 containers
You want https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker.git (with _docker).
Looks like I’m going to have to install linux for the 4th time. Thanks 
Will update when I have somethin
You can probably remove that directory and start over without re-installing… but that’s how I learned, so go for it! 
When I did that the first time it would just not let me make the directory again.
(I’m trying to learn so I can install my 2013 build with a modified launcher lol)
This is what it looked like
You need to be root.
sudo su -
First.
You cloned the wrong repo and typed cs rather than cd.
I would recommend that you follow the standard install instructions more carefully. And maybe try to copy and paste…
