I get to the rails console from the server by using:

```plaintext
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rails c

```

There’s an example of changing a site setting in this topic, [Enable setting to allow admins to permanently delete data](https://meta.discourse.org/t/enable-the-hidden-can-permanently-delete-site-setting/206678) (this one is a hidden one, but the method is the same)
