I can’t change it. This is the Problem… When I try it Docker becomes completly unfunctional. [이미지] Falco: and change to either aufs or overlay2

Well, so that hosting provider is not compatible with Discourse. You will have to change the hosting provider: Digital Ocean, Amazon LightSail and Vultr offer European datacenters in their offerings. (or change to a different forum software)
