How do I edit my "/containers/app.yml file" from the root@digitialoceandropletname ssh workspace?

I installed discourse through DigitalOcean with the instructions here

The instructions read:

If you need to change or fix these settings after bootstrapping, edit your /containers/app.yml file

I am at the command prompt and logged into the ssh workspace

root@discourseforum:~#

Can someone please explain how I open the “/containers/app.yml file” file to edit it?

This should work:

cd /var/discourse
nano containers/app.yml

This just gives me a black screen. How do I access the text file to make changes?

Hmm…is the file not there?

What do you get when you run:

cd /var/discourse/containers
ls -la

Also, just to check, when you ran the commands in my previous post, you didn’t put a slash in front of containers, right?

Puoi utilizzare uno dei modelli presenti nella cartella templates. Ad esempio, se desideri eseguire un server autonomo, usa semplicemente il file standalone.yml.

Esempio:

cp /var/discourse/samples/standalone.yml /var/discourse/containers/app.yml

All’interno del file puoi apportare le modifiche necessarie.

Per quanto ne so, quando non si è nel container, containers è una sottodirectory di /var/discourse; non esiste una directory /containers. Quindi, se non mi sbaglio, la riga “or edit /containers/app.yml manually” in INSTALL.md dovrebbe leggere “or edit containers/app.yml manually” o “or edit /var/discourse/containers/app.yml manually”.
