The forum I’m trying to start now won’t send the initial email. it’s logging:

```plaintext

Is this because of the failed first run attempt to set up https? If so then do we need two topics for the same issue? Also if so, just rebuild, or rebuild without https?

I don’t think it’s related, as i was able to make a secure connection, and the problem persisted across a host reboot, and container rebuild.

Any weird plugins installed, anything third party not from us? What happens if you disable them?

This was 100% following the easy setup guide. Nothing non-standard.

Because the hostname is registered with letscrypt now, and I don’t know that the easy setup will handle the needed rekey, I spun up a new droplet, ran through the setup again, but this time without letsencrypt at all.

I have the same issue

Incorrect. I just performed a 100% by the book, [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) guide, new install on Digital Ocean and I got the admin mail just fine.

So you seem to have a garden variety “didn’t set up email correctly” problem, and should refer to our existing guides.

The jQuery error here should probably be fixed @eviltrout, is this a result of the double minification fix?

It was a regression there. Oddly it didn’t seem to break anything but I’ve fixed it here:
