- Installed OpenEdx(IronWood) on Linux
- Goal: Adding Custom Fields to the Registration Page
- Problem: According to this [doc](https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/latest/configuration/customize_registration_page.html#add-custom-fields-to-the-registration-page) it is referring to `lms.yml` and `studios.yml` which is not there in my project directory. I found sub-directories `./devstack-workspace/edx-platform/lms/devstack.yml` and `./devstack-workspace/edx-platform/cms/devstack.yml` to be quite similar but then variables like `REGISTRATION_EXTENSION_FORM` or `ADDL_INSTALLED_APPS` were nowhere to be seen.

**Ques: Where can I find these variables/files?**

Hey @Hrithik_Raj,

1. you are following the latest version of the document. [this version](https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/open-release-ironwood.master/configuration/customize_registration_page.html) belongs to ironwood which you have installed.
2. you have to open an LMS shell to find the configuration files. so run `make lms-shell` command from your `workspace/devstack` directory.
3. when you open the configuration files, you may not find some variables. you have to add them manually.

good luck

followed your steps. But it seems like the problem is still the same. I can’t find `lms.env.json` and `cms.env.json`  
here’s what i did:

- `make lms-shell` in devstack directory. (new prompt shows `root@lms` with `edx-platform` as pwd)
- `cd ..` because it was mentioned in the docs that `lms.env.json` and `cms.env.json` are present in one directory above the `edx-platform`.
- [here’s](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EkskuK3S-iVRGt7Y1N7siq-B04c0WYlp/view?usp=sharing) what `ls` shows
- I can see `reload_cms_config.sh` and `reload_lms_config.sh`. On executing them the output yeilds  
`unix:///edx/var/supervisor/supervisor.sock no such file`. I checked with `sudo systemctl status supervisord` and it says its active.

_ **HELP** _

are you sure you’re on ironwood release? what I see in the picture is that your devstack has checked out from the master branch. am I wrong?  
BTW from the shell, you have just opened, try to find `/edx/etc/lms.yml`. it should exist even if you’ve installed ironwood release. but in ironwood json files have more priority.
