Truly, I would never have expected a simple install of forum software would just wreck my amazon ec2 server. I can’t even connect to it now. What the hell is it doing? [image]

Hello and welcome @greg_c :slight_smile: From the screenshot, it looks like it’s installing Discourse? Have you had any errors at all?

It just disconnected my putty session, no idea if it finished

seems that it uses massive cpu or something causing everything to pause during install. I can log back in. Its not the only domain on the server, maybe getting confused by that, hard to say. I ran discourse-doctor and I think I saw an error about unable to use a port since in use. idk will have …

Fair enough. Good luck! Let me know if you need anything.

My new dashboard ( https://dashboard.literatecomputing.com/ ) will do the installation and configure mailgun and create a digital ocean droplet (or use a fresh ec2 that you create). Running on a server that’s doing something else is a bit of a chore though…
