I am able to run discourse forum applications locally on ubuntu 14.04 without any problems. Now I am trying to make it work on Heroku. I am stuck. I am using Mandrill starter for emails, rediscloud:25 as addons. Here is what I did: I added mandrill details and hostname in discourse_quickstart…

Heroku is not a supported setup and until we figure out a properly supported mechanism of doing uploads it can not be. Use digital ocean / linode or any other vps, it is supported.

I am using a 32 bit laptop at the moment(and for another 2 months). I cannot install docker on my ubuntu system. I might need the docker set up for customizing the front end. I shifted to heroku because I will be able to customize the front end from my laptop. I have a little experience in Rails. I…

hehe :slight_smile: A new laptop costs a minimum of 1000 Dollars. I cannot install docker on my current system. The problem is not the 10USD or the 50USD for heroku.

[image] sam: You can set up a dev environment on x32, nothing is blocking you. @riking I never used docker before. Docker installation docs say that a 64 bit machine is needed for installing docker on any system. Installation on Digital Ocean would not be a problem like you said. If I have …

No, only the machine where you want Docker to run must be a 64bit arch. Since your Discourse will be running on a server in a datacenter far, far away, your laptop’s arch has nothing to do with it. For a basic Discourse setup, your laptop needs a good browser, I’d recommend Firefox or Chrome, an S…

Given your set up: How do I change the styling (a little css) of the home page of discourse and push those changes to digital ocean?

you don’t need a dev environment for that … just edit site customizations in admin.

Digital Ocean at 10 bucks a month is cheaper than one beer at an Ibiza night club.
