We have [this](https://talkwithstranger.com/) website. we need to set up a subfolder discourse docker forum on ubuntu. We want to serve discourse on [https://talkwithstranger.com/ask](https://talkwithstranger.com/ask) without using CDN.
I have tried to set it up by following [this tutorial](https://meta.discourse.org/t/subfolder-support-with-docker/30507https://meta.discourse.org/t/subfolder-support-with-docker/30507) but I am having these problems
1. Avatars disappears after 2 or 3 rebuilds
2. Images uploaded on topics are giving 404 after some rebuilds
you have to fix bugs on [this test domain](http://privitevps.ga/ask) so I can install and fix those same bugs on my live website 95% of work is done you just have to fix some bugs
### My app.yml
```
## Subfolder support with Docker https://meta.discourse.org/t/subfolder-support-with-docker/30507
## discourse-terraform Docker configuration template
##
## After making changes to this file, you MUST rebuild for any changes
## to take effect in your live Discourse instance:
##
## /var/discourse/launcher rebuild app
##
## this is the all-in-one, standalone Discourse Docker container template
# You may add rate limiting to by commenting out the ratelimited template.
# Out of the box it allows 12 reqs a second per ip, and 100 per minute per ip
# This is configurable by amending the params in this file
templates:
- "templates/postgres.template.yml"
- "templates/redis.template.yml"
- "templates/web.template.yml"
- "templates/sshd.template.yml"
## which TCP/IP ports should this container expose?
expose:
- "1357:80" #change this port to port where you want run discourse # fwd host port 80 to container port 80 (http)
#- "2222:22" # fwd host port 2222 to container port 22 (ssh)
params:
db_default_text_search_config: "pg_catalog.english"
## Set db_shared_buffers to 1/3 of the memory you wish to allocate to postgres
## on 1GB install set to 128MB on a 4GB instance you may raise to 1GB
db_shared_buffers: "512MB"
#
## Which Git revision should this container use? (default: tests-passed)
#version: tests-passed
env:
LANG: en_US.UTF-8
## TODO: How many concurrent web requests are supported?
## With 2GB we recommend 3-4 workers, with 1GB only 2
UNICORN_WORKERS: 3
##
## TODO: List of comma delimited emails that will be made admin and developer
## on initial signup example 'user1@example.com, user2@example.com'
DISCOURSE_DEVELOPER_EMAILS: "ahmeds.works@gmail.com" #change these emails to site admins emails
##
## TODO: The domain name this Discourse instance will respond to
DISCOURSE_RELATIVE_URL_ROOT: /ask
DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: "privitevps.ga" #change this domain to you website domain
##
## TODO: The mailserver this Discourse instance will use
# change smtp setting to your own smtp setting
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.example.com
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: example@example.com
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: example_password
##
## The CDN address for this Discourse instance (configured to pull)
#DISCOURSE_CDN_URL: //discourse-cdn.example.com
## These containers are stateless, all data is stored in /shared
volumes:
- volume:
host: /var/discourse/shared/standalone
guest: /shared
- volume:
host: /var/discourse/shared/standalone/log/var-log
