Wait, are you running other sites on the machine hosting Discourse too? If you aren’t, you don’t need web.socketed.template.yml, if you are, did you check the nginx configuration (or whatever HTTP server you are using) on the actual server to verify it is permitting HTTPS to pass through to Discourse?

These would be inside the container. Did you run `./launcher enter app` before searching for those configuration files?
