Can anyone help. Trying to setup email in digital ocean with putty but after copying & pasting this smtp_address = “ smtp.mandrillapp.com ” smtp_port = 587 smtp_domain = your_domain.com smtp_user_name = ‘your_email_registered_at_mandrill’ smtp_password = ‘any_mandrill_api_key_in_your_account’ sm…

Thanks for your attempts at helping I finally got support from the Bitnami folks. Pls for goodness sake can we go back to UI’s that don’t require degrees to operate and instructions that are accurate? Pero why do I need to see the backend Anyways?! OK time for a bagel. I miss Steve jobs :sob: If…

Sorry total noob here. Where do I find the error trace. Are these commands intended for the putty/digi ocean interface or the discourse app itself? Thanks

I’m trying to follow these directions as I type them directly into the digi ocean console…it should be pretty straight forward, but I just can’t seem to get anywhere with them.

Has bitnami migrated their setup to the docker config? If not, it’s going to be hard to get support here. I will say that the lines which begin smtp_ are to be pasted into a the discourse.conf file, not entered in a prompt. If you really Need It Done, Discourse offers a one-time setup for $99 - ht…

[image] Minzy: I’ve tried everything and need this working like yesterday. I would suggest following the official Discourse guide :smile:

$99 Oye we are not all Trumps :neutral_face: , plus this is a non profit and like the last step. If I could only locate the darn discourse.conf file. I have a feeling the installdir path might be the culprit. Wondering if it should be something else.

Is there a reason why you would need to follow the bitnami guide rather than the official supported version given that you’re using a digital ocean droplet? :confused:

Is there a reason why you would need to follow the bitnami guide rather than the official supported version given that you’re using a digital ocean droplet? Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to apply after trying to follow it. I already have discourse installed, not using docker I think. so can’t pic…

Bitnami installs are not supported due to limited staff time, sorry. We can only support the Docker install here.
