Either search here for the install instructions or all digital Ocean for help.

@tyraniczar I believe the DO one-click install uses Docker containers. Does this thread https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-do-i-change-my-smtp-settings-discourse-docker-install/20067 help you out? I don’t have an instance setup on DO at the moment to try it myself. note: always make sure you create a…
