Déplacer un site Discourse vers un autre VPS avec rsync

So, the permissions are okay, owner ubuntu and group www-data. The real problem I just identified was that I think I must have changed the settings for the static resources to upload to Amazon S3. So, all the new resources are going there, and that’s where discourse is probably reading them from.

So, it’s no longer looking at the stored data in /var/discourse/shared/standalone/uploads.

You have an answer then

@mrjn

Btw, so 2 things:

Is using S3 for static resources not recommended?. I understand it’s not deprecated, but checking to ensure we’re following the recommended setup for discourse.
If it is recommended, what’re my options? I suppose I could just upload all the existing assets on disk to S3. Then, we should be able to retrieve them just like before. Right?

I think this questions belong to other topics.
