Installation

While i am trying to establish Discourse on AWS EC2, i faced a problem to find the information of DISCOURSE_DB_SOCKET that should be found in app.yml. Can anyone tell me from where could i get this information of DISCOURSE_DB_SOCKET.

DISCOURSE_DB_SOCKET: ''
DISCOURSE_DB_NAME:  **[AWS_POSTGRES_DB_NAME]**
DISCOURSE_DB_POOL:  15
DISCOURSE_DB_USERNAME: [AWS_POSTGRES_DB_USERNAME]
DISCOURSE_DB_PASSWORD:  [AWS_POSTGRES_DB_PASSWORD]
DISCOURSE_DB_HOST:  [AWS_POSTGRES_ENDPOINT]
DISCOURSE_REDIS_HOST:  [AWS_REDIS_ENDPOINT]

That would be the path to the unix socket of the PostgreSQL you want to connect to. You should omit it on most cases.

If you don’t know then you can just access it via the port.
