That is too old. Follow the [official guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md) to install Discourse and you will have a working Discourse running 2.4.0. To run with RDS follow [Configure Discourse to use a separate PostgreSQL server](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-discourse-with-a-separate-postgresql-server/46375).
