Installation
Nextcloud will be using apache
[shroot]
apt install mlocate apache2 libapache2-mod-php mariadb-client mariadb-server wget unzip bzip2 curl php php-common php-curl php-gd php-mbstring php-mysql php-xml php-zip php-intl php-apcu php-redis php-bcmath php-gmp php-imagick
[/shroot]
Enter the MariaDB CLI as the root user
[shroot]
mariadb -u root -p
[/shroot]
CREATE DATABASE nextcloud;
For UTF8 support use this instead:
CREATE DATABASE nextcloud CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci;
GRANT ALL ON nextcloud.* TO 'nextcloud'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '{PASSWORD}';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Exit the MariaDB prompt
Download Nextcloud into /var/www
[shroot]
wget https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/nextcloud-[VERSION].tar.bz2
tar -xf nextcloud-[VERSION].tar.bz2
[/shroot]
Change owner to the apache user
[shroot]
chown -Rfv www-data:www-data /var/www/nextcloud
[/shroot]
Create nextcloud configuration for apache
[shroot]
vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/nextcloud.conf
[/shroot]
Configuration file

</VirtualHost>
Enable nextcloud and disable the default site
[shroot]
a2ensite nextcloud.conf && a2dissite 000-default.conf
[/shroot]
Edit ports.conf for apache2 to only bind the addresses you need
[shroot]
systemctl restart apache2
[/shroot]
Cron
To execute regular jobs, I personally use cron.
Edit crontab as the www-data user.
[shroot]
su -s /bin/sh -c 'crontab -e' www-data
[/shroot]
Add this following line:
*/5 * * * * php -f [NEXTCLOUD DIR]/cron.php
Configuration
The main config file is [NEXTCLOUD DIR]/config/config.php
Automatic Trash clearing
See this page for more options
This settings keeps the files for 15 days, unless drive space is getting low.
In that case it delets them earlier.
'trashbin_retention_obligation' => 'auto, 15',
Trust Proxy
This disables the warning of untrusted proxy in the webinterface.
'trusted_proxies' =>
array (
0 => '[PROXY IP]',
),
Trusted Domains
Array of trusted domains.
'trusted_domains' =>
array (
0 => '[DOMAIN 1]',
1 => '[DOMAIN 2]',
),
Maintenance
Maintenance Mode
Enable maintenance mode to prevent data inconsistencies
[shroot]
su -s /bin/sh -c 'php /var/www/nextcloud/occ maintenance:mode --on' www-data
[/shroot]
To disable maintenance mode again, run the same command with --off instead of --on
Upgrade with CLI
[shroot]
su -s /bin/sh -c 'php /var/www/nextcloud/updater/updater.phar' www-data
[/shroot]
Always check the admin status page after an upgrade. Sometimes additional steps are needed to fully complete the upgrade
Missing indices in database
The missing indices can be added using occ
[shroot]
su -s /bin/sh -c 'php /var/www/nextcloud/occ db:add-missing-indices' www-data
[/shroot]
Backup Database
Dump database to file
NOTE: The password needs to be inserted directly after -p without any space
mysqldump --single-transaction -h [SERVER] -u [USERNAME] -p[PASSWORD] [DB NAME] > nextcloud-sqlbkp_`date +"%Y%m%d"`.bak
Backup Script
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
server=
username=
password=
db_name=
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/database-backup
sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ maintenance:mode --on
mysqldump --single-transaction -h $server -u $username -p$password $db_name | sudo tee /var/www/database-backup/nextcloud-sqlbkp_`date +"%Y%m%d"`.bak
sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ maintenance:mode --off
Restore Database
mariadb -h [SERVER] -u [USERNAME] -p[PASSWORD] -e "DROP DATABASE nextcloud"
mariadb -h [SERVER] -u [USERNAME] -p[PASSWORD] -e "CREATE DATABASE nextcloud CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci"
mariadb -h [SERVER] -u [USERNAME] -p[PASSWORD] [DB NAME] < nextcloud-sqlbkp.bak
Migration
Tips
- Allow login to the original host as root user
Steps
- (New host) Install dependencies
- (Original host) Enable maintenance mode
- (Original host) Create database backup
- (New host) Restore database backup
- (New host) Recreate Nextcloud database user
- (New host) Copy full Nextcloud folder
- Preserve the permissions as much as possible (see rsync command below)
sudo rsync -a --progress root@172.18.50.101:/var/www/nextcloud /var/www/
- (New host) Copy apache2 configuration file
- (New host) Enable apache2 Nextcloud site and disable default site
- (New host) Redo php limits configuration
- (New host) Upgrade Nextcloud (required for php 8.2 compatibility)
Notes on configuration files
PHP
Apache2: /etc/php/8.2/apache2/php.ini
Change memory_limit to 1G
Disable post_max_size by setting 0
Previously used 20G in the old Nextcloud installation
Change upload_max_filesize to 20G
CLI: /etc/php/8.2/cli/php.ini
Disable post_max_size by setting 0

Onlyoffice Container
Integrating onlyoffice, requires setting the correct Content Security Policy headers on the webserver. Using CSP also introduces blockages in Nextcloud that have to be fixed. The console view is your friend for finding every issue.
For my installation, the headers needed to be set like this.
Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' data: [ONLYOFFICE DOMAIN NAME];"
[shroot]
podman run -itd --name onlyoffice -p 8080:80 \
-e JWT_SECRET=[SECRET KEY] \
