I need to upload a file to the web root, specifically, some SSL certificate activation file. On every other webapp I’ve ever used in my 15+ years of working in web, I could relatively easily do this with varying degree of difficulty. Only with this docker+discourse ruby thing are things so incredibly layered that I feel I need to learn 12 different things just to upload a file to a web root.

Please help? TIA.
