Tried to install Discourses through Docker with this article [http://www.howtoinstalldiscourse.com/how-to-install-discourse-on-ubuntu/:](http://www.howtoinstalldiscourse.com/how-to-install-discourse-on-ubuntu/:)
Have an error on Launch Discourse step (./launcher bootstrap app , ./launcher start app)
Please help!

I would not follow that document.. follow our [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) guide.

Guys, thanks for answers.
1. I switched to official installation doc on [digitalocean.com](http://digitalocean.com)
2. It’s really meant to be /var/discourse directory, and I cd it now
3. I filled app.yml to this condition:
4. launched bootrstrap comes with:
5. I runed a command to start docker but it freezed:
6. If I try to run “launcher bootstrap app” in another terminal window it failed with:
What I can do else?

Docker is not installing on your system, for some reason.
You are installing it via this, yes, as a privileged account?
`wget -qO- https://get.docker.io/ | sh`
Does that report any errors?

There is another command for 14.04 in docker’s [site](https://docs.docker.com/installation/ubuntulinux/#ubuntu-trusty-1404-lts-64-bit), does the same as yours but is simpler and more straighforward:

1. Installing with **curl -sSL [https://get.docker.io/ubuntu/](https://get.docker.io/ubuntu/) | sudo sh** comes with **lxc-docker is already the newest version.**
2. docker info says 2014/09/30 02:22:05 **Get http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.14/info: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: no such file or directory**

I reinstalled docker.
Now docker info actually have some info:
```

But the error on launcher bootstrap app still same as below.
Even after " sudo service docker restart".

@sam @codinghorror ? Any ideas, guys?
1. I stopped with same error as in 1st topic message after “./launcher bootstrap app” and have no idea how to start discource.
Figured out that troubles due log starting with this lines:

1. Main hook now that “/shared/postgres\_data” is not a valid data directory" and "postgres PG\_VERSION is missing ". googling..
2.1) According this case: [Solved: Postgresql 8.4 on Ubuntu - PG\_VERSION is missing | Experts Exchange](http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Linux/Q_26967327.html)
sudo sysv-rc-conf postgresql on
service postgresql start
– without result.
2.2) As I figure out, PostgreSQL’s data directory missing. [http://dba.stackexchange.com/a/1354](http://dba.stackexchange.com/a/1354)
On Debian/Ubuntu:
```
pg_lsclusters
Ver Cluster Port Status Owner Data directory Log file
9.3 main 5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/9.3/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.3-main.log
```
But how I can use this info? Is there is any ways to link it with docker?
1. Seems like I not alone with this.
Guy in [this topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/admin-docker-url-went-away-on-my-site) had same error 2 days ago during update: “socat[51] E connect(4, AF=1 “/shared/postgres\_run/.s.PGSQL.5432”, 36): No such file or directory”.

If you failed to install on a new install, why does it matter if your db is corrupt? Blow everything away and start over from scratch, following the [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) guide closely.

I started from scratch with removing docker as I reported earlier.
Will try it now on another distributive or virtual machine.

Hi there,
Let me know if I should start a separate topic for this, but:
Running into the exact same error while bootstrapping on a Debian GCE instance:
```
FAILED
--------------------
RuntimeError: su postgres -c 'psql discourse -c "alter schema public owner to discourse;"' failed with return #
Location of failure: /pups/lib/pups/exec_command.rb:105:in `spawn'
exec failed with the params "su postgres -c 'psql discourse -c \"alter schema public owner to discourse;\"'"
```
Currently trying to bootstrap a separate data container for a multisite Discourse setup, so I can’t throw my database away, if it is corrupt. Although I don’t know if that’s the case because my first site works perfectly fine.
The first discourse site was set up with the instructions here: [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-digital-ocean.md](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-digital-ocean.md) although the Digital Ocean stuff was skipped in favour of GCE.
@craft37, did you make any progress with this issue?
@sam, is this actually a sign that the database is corrupt? The first discourse site is working fine and I’d prefer not to nuke the database and start over.

Also, I was following this post on how to set up multisite Discourse: [https://meta.discourse.org/t/beginners-guide-to-setting-up-discourse-multisite-with-docker/17972](https://meta.discourse.org/t/beginners-guide-to-setting-up-discourse-multisite-with-docker/17972)
So my data.yml file looks almost exactly the same as the one there, but here’s mine just in case (with SOME\_SECRET subbed in for my password):
```
# A container for all things Data, be sure to set a secret password for
# discourse account, SOME_SECRET is just an example
#
templates:
- "templates/postgres.template.yml"
- "templates/redis.template.yml"
- "templates/sshd.template.yml"
expose:
- "5431:5431"
- "6379:6379"
- "2221:22"
params:
db_default_text_search_config: "pg_catalog.english"
## Set db_shared_buffers to 1/3 of the memory you wish to allocate to postgres
## on 1GB install set to 128MB on a 4GB instance you may raise to 1GB
#db_shared_buffers: "256MB"
env:
# ensure locale exists in container, you may need to install it
LANG: en_US.UTF-8
volumes:
- volume:
host: /var/discourse/shared/data
guest: /shared
- volume:
host: /var/discourse/shared/data/log/var-log
guest: /var/log
# TODO: SOME_SECRET to a password for the discourse user
hooks:
after_postgres:
- exec:
stdin: |
alter user discourse with password 'SOME_SECRET';
cmd: sudo - postgres -c 'psql discourse'
raise_on_fail: false
#create second database
hooks:
after_postgres:
- exec: sudo -u postgres createdb discourse_b || exit 0 # designate name of 2nd db
- exec:
stdin: |
grant all privileges on database discourse_b to discourse;
cmd: sudo -u postgres psql discourse_b
raise_on_fail: false
- exec: /bin/bash -c 'sudo -u postgres psql discourse_b <<< "alter schema public owner to discourse;"'
- exec: /bin/bash -c 'sudo -u postgres psql discourse_b <<< "create extension if not exists hstore;"'
- exec: /bin/bash -c 'sudo -u postgres psql discourse_b <<< "create extension if not exists pg_trgm;"'
```

Hm, so based on this topic: [https://meta.discourse.org/t/can-not-bootstrap-discourse/20906/17](https://meta.discourse.org/t/can-not-bootstrap-discourse/20906/17) it looks like my problem might be the presence of the old database.
Is it not possible to add multisite-ness to Discourse once you’ve already set up a standalone Discourse?

It is possible, but when it comes to multisite you are dealing with a highly technical feature, you need to be comfortable spawning a container to snoop around and understand the templates real well.
