Hi,  
I have been running discourse for a while. I want to re-run the setup to check some settings and change. But I can’t find the setup file.  
Documentation says - I need to go to /var/discourse and run ./discourse-setup  
But I the path does not exist in my setup. It has /var/www/discourse folder and ./discourse-setup doesnot exist in there.

Any help - where I can find the setup file ?

You are inside the docker container on the last screenshot. Type exit to go back to the host.
