Hey guys, I want to start a forum and I have chosen vultr for cloud compute. But am still confused on some details I read on this forum and online too.

Are you following these instructions? . They make it pretty clear that Ubuntu is what is recommended. EDIT: Apologies if you are following those directions, but if you’re not, you’ll have another 100 questions that are supposed to be easy to find there.

The only official guide works: discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

I’m getting this error, I don’t know why. Server is online [installl]
