Hey, So I’m just starting a community with Discourse and after enabling SSL with this tutorial and after enabling it my forum just doesn’t load. My browser just says ‘(web address) refused to connect’. I checked and I’ve followed every step of the tutorial, any suggestions? Thanks, Matt

Based on what you’ve given us, the only thing that can be said for sure is, “something went wrong”. You’ll need to examine (and possibly share) the output of the rebuild, and potentially the logs, in order for anyone to be able to provide you with useful assistance.

Thanks, Matt Is this a DigitalOcean install following the guide? is there anything else on the machine? are you using cloudflare?

Sorry, just seen the replies now. [תמונה] Stephen: Is this a DigitalOcean install following the guide? I used the DigitalOcean 1 click install then connected to it via SSH and completed the setup [תמונה] Stephen: is there anything else on the machine? No, I haven’t installed anything else. [תמונה] Stephen: are you using cloudflare? No, I’m not. [תמונה] pfaffman: You might try running ./discourse-doctor and see if it offers any clues. I’ve just ran it, what am I looking for?

Is there anything specific? I don’t want to post the whole thing.

Did it print anything that made a suggestion or that something was wrong? You could pm it or the url to me. The script redacts sensitive information. What is there that you don’t want to share?

This is the output, it had my admin password and stuff in it so that’s removed. Any clues?

The URL it offers has the password data redacted, but I should remove it from the file in /tmp as well. Like there are two docker containers running. Is that true? If you stop the app and then run it, the will also be in the discourse-doctor log file.
