Hi,

I installed Discourse in a Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS VM on our Hyper-V server.

The initial setup works and I get to the point where it is supposed to send the activation email and that failed.  
I edited the SMTP settings in app.yml and did a `./launcher rebuild app`. This fails with the following error message

`/usr/bin/docker: Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '/var/discourse/shared/standalone': mkdir /var/discourse: read-only file system.`

There does not appear to be a `/var/discourse/shared/standalone` directory at this point.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,  
Charlotte

Is this a [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) of Ubuntu on EXT4? Is there any other software on the VM?

Did you follow the [standard install guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md)?

I rebuilt the VM with Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS and now it is working.
