Some problems have been found with your installation of Discourse:

  • Sidekiq is not running. Many tasks, like sending emails, are executed asynchronously by sidekiq. Please ensure at least one sidekiq process is running. Learn about Sidekiq here.

Should be, if it’s got a chunk of swap. Try running ./discourse-doctor (from /var/discourse, as root) and see what it has to say.

You can examine the output of this script with 
LESS=-Ri less /tmp/discourse-debug.txt

BUT FIRST, make sure that you know the first three commands below!!!

Commands to know when viewing the file with the above command (called 'less'): 
q              -- quit
/error<ENTER>  -- search for the word 'error'
n              -- search for the next occurrence
g              -- go to the beginning of the file
f              -- go forward a page
b              -- go back a page
G              -- go to the end of the file

There’s your problem, you don’t have any swap. If you ran ./discourse-setup, a swap file should have been created automatically.
