How to install NextCloud [SOLVED]

[makhai]

If I can help anyone, here's my working configuration file
(It's deprecated with recent version of docker compose, but you may need to add version on top of the file)

Code: Select all

services:
  db:
    image: mariadb:11
    restart: always
    command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --log-bin=binlog --binlog-format=ROW
    volumes:
      - db:/var/lib/mysql
    environment:
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=GIGA_SECRET_HAHA
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=RANDOM_BASE
      - MYSQL_USER=RANDOM_USER
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=BIG_SECRET
  app:
    image: nextcloud:29
    depends_on:
      - db
    restart: always
    ports:
      - 8082:80
    links:
      - db
    volumes:
      - nextcloud:/var/www/html
    environment:
      - MYSQL_HOST=db
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=RANDOM_BASE
      - MYSQL_USER=RANDOM_USER

Thanks, I don't actually know how to use this file though - I've installed docker from the app store and that's about it

First you need docker engine and docker manager.
You can also install portainer, it may help later.

In docker manager you can create a project


Then fill the fields like this.
You can locale it where you want.


And copy/paste le conf file
WARNING :
- Use this version, the one I post before will require reverse proxy.
- Modify MYSQL parameters for better security, I give examples.
- Use your NAS IP with "OVERWRITECLIURL"

Code: Select all

services:  # List of software to be parameterized
  db:  # Database to store users and datas
    image: mariadb:10.6  # Version without bug. V11 don't work well
    restart: always  # will start with docker engine... if docker engine starts lol (TOS bug)
    command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --log-bin=binlog --binlog-format=ROW # IDK
    volumes:	# links between NAS files and container files
      - db:/var/lib/mysql
    environment:	# variables for database access
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=GIGA_SECRET_HAHA
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=RANDOM_BASE
      - MYSQL_USER=RANDOM_USER
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=BIG_SECRET
  app:	# nextcloud app that will use the database
    image: nextcloud:29
    depends_on:	# will wait database before build
      - db
    restart: always
    ports:	# will be available on http://x.x.x.x:8082
      - 8082:80
    links:	# connected to database
      - db
    volumes:
      - nextcloud:/var/www/html
    environment:
      - MYSQL_HOST=localhost:3306
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=RANDOM_BASE
      - MYSQL_USER=RANDOM_USER
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=BIG_SECRET
      - OVERWRITECLIURL=http://192.168.x.xx 	# IP TO COMPLETE
#      - OVERWRITEPROTOCOL=https	# ONLY IF YOU HAVE HTTPS

volumes:
  nextcloud:
  db:
  

Use "Verify YAML" for check syntax. If you don't, you can't create project.
And apply.

Wait a minute, then try to reach your ip and the port (8082 in my example)
Like "http://192.168.1.15:8082"

Create your admin user and enjoy

hello
I'm also lost on how to install nextcloud using mariadb and how to acess nextcloud over the internet. total newbie here with a terramaster F4-424

[makhai]

Hi !
Did you follow my previous post step by step ?

Please tell me if something is unclear so I can improve it.

[makhai]

However, unless you have specific needs, I suggest using the Nextcloud app provided by TOS store

Hi, I'm sorry I haven't had much time to experiment. I have tried altering a few settings but it keeps failing. I have attached my current yaml config - I basically kept most of your settings to make sure it works but I keep getting the following error


I've attached the YAML file I'm using, I'm not sure where I'm going wrong

Code: Select all

services:  # List of software to be parameterized
  db:  # Database to store users and datas

There is a problem with your volumes, you inverted host and container.
The syntax is :

Code: Select all

volumes:
  - path/on/host:path/in/container

The end of the yml file create volumes db and nextcloud, who who are managed by docker.

So you have 2 options :
1) Stay with the volumes managed by docker

Code: Select all

volumes:
  - nextcloud:/var/www/html

2) Link folders in /Volume1/public/docker/ and delete the volumes declaration at the end of the yml

Code: Select all

volumes:
  - /Volume1/public/docker/nextcloud:/var/www/html

Know the second option will allow anyone to access your data because it's stored in public folder.

[makhai]

Of course I give an example with nextcloud but it's the same with db

[SquarePeg]

I still keep getting the same error, I have also tried installing the latest all-in-one image from docker hub but I get presenting with a screen asking for a source and destination directory and have no idea what to enter
