Hello,

I’ve used discourse-settings-uploader to upload site\_settings.json file from the GitHub Jay mentioned. I get this error when I run it:

```
./discourse-settings-uploader:39:in `<main>': undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

line39: settings['site_settings'].each do |setting|
line40: jsetting (setting) unless setting['value'] == setting['default']
line41: end

```

I used an API key for “All Users” and used “system” when I ran discourse-settings-uploader.  
Any thoughts?
