Hi, starting a forum, completely new to discourse, hosted on DO, for some reason has issue with smtp or port issue. Now, wanted to find out if you have gone with google logins or social logins and no issue if local sign ups/logins is not in your forum

my site has crashed now. it is a new site with few members, not sure how to download my custom pages and members. don’t want to use smtp at all.

i’m sorry this is happening to you. yea your yml file is likely broken. post the whole thing here (without the email addresses and passwords). this really shouldn’t be this difficult to get up and running. just out of curiosity what size of droplet on Digitalocean are you using? have you been able to configure if your name server is correctly configured?

Hi, i have Basic / 1 vCPU / 2 GB RAM / 50 GB Disk env: LC_ALL: en_US.UTF-8 LANG: en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE: en_US.UTF-8 DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: dobato.au DISCOURSE_DEVELOPER_EMAILS: ``myemail@outlook.com DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: ``smtp.resend.com DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: resend DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: “re_mypassword” DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587 DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS: true DISCOURSE_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL: noreply@dobato.au DISCOURSE_SMTP_DOMAIN: dobato.au DISCOURSE_SMTP_AUTHENTICATION: login DISCOURSE_SMTP_FROM_ADDRESS: noreply@dobato.au UNICORN_WORKERS: 4 i dont want smtp. Googling issue with some commands shows - Nginx and Unicorn are not running.

please read my previous post here carefully. your yml file is incorrect. [图片] abeen: i have Basic / 1 vCPU / 2 GB RAM / 50 GB Disk this should work for a non-busy forum. do you have a swap file at all? run free -h at the command line and post the output here. it should look something like this (but smaller numbers): ~# free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.7Gi 2.5Gi 324Mi 116Mi 1.2Gi 1.2Gi Swap: 2.0Gi 366Mi 1.6Gi

how about discourse on amazon Lightsail, they have Amazon SES smpt email as well.

[图片] abeen: “re_mypassword” @abeen Have you switched these to straight quotes? Try using these instead: "

i’ve got " ", double quotation mark

I see. It’s possible to host Discourse on Lightsail with SES (some users here do that). Or you could try port 2525 if you haven’t already. But if you want to avoid these port headaches, you could shift to a different host, like Hetzner or Lightsail.

[图片] Lilly: your correct app.yml section should look like this: DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: dobato.au # (verify this - it may be incorrect!) DISCOURSE_DEVELOPER_EMAILS: myemail@outlook.com DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.resend.com DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: resend DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: "re_actual_api_key_here" # note the straight quotes! DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 2525 DISCOURSE_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL: noreply@dobato.au rebuild finishes too quickly with this .. don’t know why?
