Hi, I’m a beginner and I’d like to try installing Discourse for a project, but I’m having trouble installing Discourse in a Ubuntu 22.04 VM. I followed the tutorial at [discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/main/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md), but after completing the steps, I don’t see anything on my web browser (I get the message “This site can’t be reached”). I opted for the Brevo solution for SMTP.

Hi, welcome 👋
Did the build process end without errors?

Do you have your DNS pointing to the server? DId you run `discourse-setup`? What is the URL?

Yes, DNS pointing server (I can ping with hostname), i run and use commande ./discourse-setup and url is [http://forum.crio-dauphine.dynv6.net](http://forum.crio-dauphine.dynv6.net)
but sometimes I get an nginx page that displays for 2 minutes.

Pinging `forum.crio-dauphine.dynv6.net` gives me a local address, likely one that connects to a router. 🤔

Unless you comment out the let’s encrypt and ssl templates it will fail because there is no certificate.
And I’m not sure if it’s possible to run without https anymore.

Hello;
It works, I followed a youtube video ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaUIsIYivE8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaUIsIYivE8)), I did the step done in the video and I left the line checked (#) for the https let’s encrypt part on the app.yml file.
