I’d like to create a second instance of Discourse on my server, which is completely self-contained. It will be another forum entirely. I assume Docker helps us host setups like this, although I’m concerned to understand any potentially clashes between the two instances, if I were to add a second.

No problem at all. I have such configuration running. You just need an external nginx to help mux 80/443 port.

Someone wrote a blog post about that :slight_smile: https://samsaffron.com/archive/2016/06/15/the-current-state-of-brotli-compression

Thanks! Got some thing new to play with.

Another alternative is to use haproxy as front end. There are some old posts in Meta about this.

You second instance cannot have “app.yml” as the filename since it is going to be the Docker container name. You can just copy the app.yml file from the first instance and edit it to suit your configuration for 2nd one, and save it under a different filename. Then you need to ./launcher bootstrap <n…

EDIT: Some of these steps are unnecessary - see post below by @kraml I now have my second Discourse instance running. Checked out the Discourse code into /var/[myforum] Took the content of standalone.yml from /samples and created /containers/[myforum].yml In /containers/[myforum].yml replaced …

You actually don’t need another /var/[myforum]… You can just use the same /var/discourse for multiple instances. /var/discourse/containers/app.yml --> This is the default instance you get by running discourse-setup /var/discourse/containers/myforum.yml --> This is the 2nd instance you get by runni…

A bit off topic. I got gzip content-encoding back from meta on Firefox 53 beta and Chrom 57. Is there anything wrong?

we only send our static assets with brotli, dynamic assets are a much trickier story.

多站点设置使用一个数据库服务和所有站点共享的应用程序工作进程池。此配置为各站点提供完全独立的数据库和 Unicorn 集群，这可能需要更多的 RAM。
