Hostname for your Discourse? **discourse.example.com<-- same as DNS **
Email address for admin account(s)? [me@example.com,you@example.com]:
SMTP server address? [smtp.example.com]:
SMTP port? [587]:
SMTP user name? [user@example.com]:
SMTP password? [pa$word]:
Let's Encrypt account email? (ENTER to skip) [me@example.com]:
After access URL ip only and discourse.example.com, it doesn’t connect me to admin setup page. I am very sad now and will sleep. Hope someone here can guide me through this infinite loop hole that I stuck in. Please!
** something worth mention: I believe I setup SMTP incorrectly, I can rebuild by fixing app file later, but first let get to the first setup welcome page first.
Do you know the public IP of your server?
if so, Can you confirm if your A record is created correct?
At the very last, Are you hosting any other website on the same server?
@itsbhanusharma
Thank you for great great reply. I am waiting for someone here to help me fix in realtime. I have attached photo for clearer understanding. Am I doing it right?
So You’re managing dns from cloudflare.
I’m assuming your nameservers are successfully propagated and pinging discourse.example.com returns this same IP.
If all these above conditions are met, I’d be interested in checking the server itself if it has everything set up correctly. First step will be trying to check if server has the necessary ports open and if alicloud requires some additional rules to be created in your account to enable public access on ports 80 & 443.
Thank you you made my day! I have successfully open setup admin page for Discourse.
Now, I am working mailgun and forward it to gmail.
All Mx record, TXT record and, Cname is green status on mailgun.
Problem:
Sending email from outside domain to mailgun (custom-domain) mailgun server never forward it to my gmail. even though I setup route to forward to my outside mail correct and all DNS record are green.
