      Hello, I've been following the steps to change root email upon initial install of Discourse, but always stumble at the third line of the manual, after entering this command:

      irb(main):001:0> u = User.find_by_username("root")

      I am getting this:
      bash: syntax error near unexpected token `main'

      what should I do differently?

        there are only 2 commands there after the #, the rest is the command output.

        So you're likely already done with that step.

          You have to enter these two commands first. Maybe you can post a screenshot:

          cd /app/code
          gosu cloudron:cloudron bundle exec script/rails console

            I appreciate your responses and apologize for my ignorance, I indeed mistook the command output for the command itself and was trying to enter wrong lines!
            Now everything works and my email has been changed successfully, thank you very much!
