Everything wants me to access some “yml” file that doesn’t seem to exist with the latest and greatest way to install Discourse, now that it’s an official 1-click app on DigitalOcean droplets.

Anyone have a non-dated guide? I’m struggling with setting up my SMTP 😕 I did a CURL test and my smtp works fine, but alas, not getting an email after registering with my admin! I’m using sparkpost for SMTP.

Where are you looking for the app.yml file?

As that is standard with every Discourse install, it should be located in /var/discourse/containers/app.yml

Ah so every guide seems to start at /var/discourse/ … i just thought it was /

Thanks .. this reply helps a lot. Should probably update the top-level readmes to display full path rather than /var/discourse/ as the working so others like me don’t repost newb questions 🙂
