    Setting up Discourse, I tried to follow these instructions to change the root account email address but failed at the first step:

    # sudo -E -u cloudron bundle exec script/rails console
    Loading production environment (Rails 6.1.3.2)
    bundler: failed to load command: script/rails (script/rails)
    

    of the almost 100 lines of traceback that followed I'm guessing these are the most relevant:

    /usr/local/lib/ruby/2.7.0/reline/config.rb:122:in `readlines': Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /root/.inputrc (Errno::EACCES)
    ...
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/2.7.0/irb/ext/save-history.rb:98:in `stat': Permission denied @ rb_file_s_stat - /root/.irb_history (Errno::EACCES)
    

    When I do a cd into /root and then ls -la I see neither .inputrc nor .irb_history

    Anyone know what's going on? Suggestions?
    Thanks.

      @baslow please see https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2232/changing-root-account-email-in-fresh-discourse-install/4 for the fix. Basically, run sudo -E -u root bundle exec script/rails console instead.

      (I am still investigating why the "-u cloudron" does not work, but that should not affect usage of the app.)
