You’re running the import script as `root`. `root` is the equivalent of the `SYSTEM` account on Windows. You should not be running programs as `root` unless you intend to do maintenance on the operating system.

If you’re using the default recommended install and `./launcher enter app`, you should switch to the proper unprivileged user account by running `exec su - discourse`.
