I am trying to install Discourse, I configured my db, redis, and smtp. For the Postgresql DB it had no problem with the unix socket, but for redis it seems to be complaining. redis settings: sudo sed -i 's/^# unixsocket /unixsocket /' /etc/redis/redis.conf sudo sed -i 's/^# unixsocketp.*/unixsocke…

If you want to install Discourse for production you should use the Discourse official Standard Installation . If you want to install a development environment, there are topics for each os.

Thank you for the reply. Just to clarify, I am completely up and running and everything working, but I had to set redis host to “localhost” because connecting to redis via unix socket would not work. I followed this guide: Install Discourse Forum on Ubuntu 18.04 Without Docker because the guide i…

[immagine] jieiku: it appears they are using docker and I am not Then you’ll mostly be on your own, as only the Discourse official Standard Installation is supported here. I think that it’ll be rather difficult to install or maintain a production instance that does not use Docker. There are …

yes, luckily they provide a sample nginx config /var/www/discourse/config/nginx.sample.conf From what I am reading not even the docker image supports redis through unix socket yet.

That’s not likely to change. If the current template doesn’t support using a socket than that means CDCK doesn’t use a redis socket in their hosting or their supported docker installation. I’m not sure what problem you’re solving by not using the supported ./launcher & docker configuration, but yo…

I am not sure if you have ever used Proxmox, but in my opinion it is Fantastic! I can log into the web interface and with a single click create a backup, I can then make changes and if something goes wrong I just select the backup and click restore. Then on top of that you get much better performan…

The point of the thread was to ask about the current status of Redis Unix Socket. Not to debate if LXC or docker is better suited for Discourse. I only mentioned why I was not using Docker because you seemed like you might be curious about it. For the average person docker will win every time, becau…

[immagine] jieiku: Did I mention that my install went smoothly? Ha! NO! Awesome! Glad you got it worked out! It sounds like if you’re willing to live with localhost for redis you’ll be trouble free going forward.

I guess it’s usermod -aG redis discourse or alternatively unixsocketperm 777 so that unicorn has permissions to access the socket. Also assure that the directory where the socket is to be created exists and has redis user as owner. However, the common systemd-service based redis-server package on Ub…
