Install nextcloud or owncloud on top of OMV

[twinstar1337]

Hey guys,

i installed open media vault on my helios4 as described here: https://wiki.kobol.io/omv/
works like charm =)

But now i also want to use nextcloud or owncloud and tried to install it ontop of omv, i followed this guide: https://www.technikaffe.de/anleitung-255-installation_und_konfiguration_von_openmediavault_inkl._wake_on_lan

The problem is the nginx Server does not work, i can't access the page in my browser.

Anyone here had success installing nextcloud or owncloud?

Not possible ... unless you are a super geek. Start with a clean Debian (or perhaps Ubuntu if they support it) image from the download section.

I have ownCloud running under OpenMediaVault on the Helios4.

You need some "NginX Extra Options" and ensure that you give it a "Pool" with user & group set to "www-data"

Give pool "Extra Options" of env[PATH] = /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin

 

Don't forget that whatever you set as your directory in NginX for this server, should be set up as a share with

www-data having Read/Write access

 

In your NginX server definition for oC have the following "Extra Options"...

client_max_body_size 10G; # set max upload size
fastcgi_buffers 64 4K;

OK I just found my notes on this and it was a little more complex than I led you to believe. I've added a text file with all my install and update notes.

I guess you follow the install notes first and only the update if required.

I now remember that I got a lot of this info from a web search, and it did get me up and running with ownCloud. But oC had several red flags that were annoying

so I researched fixes for those and included in this text file.

 

Good luck ... Nick
