Can't Install Discourse on Oracle Free Tier

Hello Everyone,

First off, I really like the community and help you all support regardless the experience level of individuals. Recently I installed Hestia and the setup process was smooth on Oracal Free Tier.

I am facing an issue when I try to install discourse. I’ve spent so much time looking for a solution in both inside the community and outside, but no luck. I’ve followed the guideline that was published here as well as Oracle blog post, but still been unable to install the discourse successfully

Here is the error that keeps throwing:

If you are trying to run Discourse simultaneously with another web
server like Apache or nginx, you will need to bind to a different port

See https://meta.discourse.org/t/17247

If you are reconfiguring an already-configured Discourse, use

./launcher stop app

to stop Discourse before you reconfigure it and try again.

Note: I even followed the the link in the discourse site, however they made it for those who already have the app installed in their machine only. I’ll be thankful to guide me what I should do since I am still learning.

Have you tried https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/post/install-run-discourse-for-free-in-the-oracle-cloud?

Yes, as I mentioned above.

Looks like your Hestia and Discourse are trying to run on the same ports.

Maybe check: NGINX Template for Discourse - #2 by eris

Perhaps a solution is there for you.

Great I appreciate your comment, mate!
