SOLVED Discourse - problem installing plugins

[jimmmmy]

Hi cloudron community,

It may sound like a supernoob question. But I still have no clue about the answer.
I have a discourse installed here
When I try to install a plugin and run the following lines in the app's terminal:

cd /app/code/plugins
git clone <plugin-repo>
cd /app/code
bundle exec rake plugin:install_gems['REPLACE_WITH_PLUGINS_NAME'] 

Everything works well.
But when I try to run the last line of command

rm -rf /run/discourse/public/assets/*

the site goes down and the app doesn't work anymore.
Why ? And how should I do ?

@jimmmmy does the site come back up after you restart the app? Sounds like that is the last step.

Restart the application for the assets to get re-built.

Exactly, did you read this line above?
https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/discourse/

# the line below will force assets to be rebuilt on next application restart
rm -rf /run/discourse/public/assets/*

@jdaviescoates thank you for your answer. It seems after further inquiries that it was due to a cache problem. I went over it again and all went well.

@brutalbirdie yes, thanks
