Hi community — love Discourse. And this time around, I want to set it up myself. I’m a complete non-programmer. I have created a droplet in DigitalOcean. I have created an account / sub-domain in Mailgun and my credentials are ready. However, I’m stuck here: Access Your Cloud Server Connect to…

log into your account and go do a password reset. it will mail you one big long ass password. then when you login its gonna tell you to change ur password

The last time I did this I got an email with the password, which you then have to change the first time you log in. You can also reset it via the digital ocean website. Terminal and ssh is not so hard - google can be your friend when you are trying to figure out how to do things. Keep us posted he…

Cool. By log in you mean — using Terminal / SSH or the DigitalOcean website?

It’s working! Nearly there, I think.

Unless you specified a droplet with Cpanel installed, that shouldn’t be occurring and likely means DNS hasn’t propagated yet. Try a service like this: https://www.whatsmydns.net/ To check the status of your DNS for the A record

Thank you. I did not specify a droplet with cpanel installed — unless I did something wrong. It may be just a time delay. I’ll check again tomorrow. (However, that site whatsmydns.net shows a series of green ticks when I check the DNS for the A record. So maybe it HAS propagated?)

The 1-click installer is sort-of a standard install, but it keeps you from knowing the way that you’re supposed to do stuff. You really need to follow the Discourse official Standard Installation . I think, though, that you can ssh (or use the console) to access your server as you have done already …

I’m confused by your comment – that’s what I thought I was doing. I followed those instructions.
