404 on nginx after installation

🚧 Installation
1

Hi, for the first time today I installed Nextcloud 10 on my ODROID (similar to a raspberry pi) with Ubuntu 16.04. I already install Nextcloud in the past but on Apache. I choose nginx because is lighter.
The components I use are: PHP 7.0.8, nginx 1.10.0 and MariaDB 10.0.
After the installation and the initial configuration, the wizard got stuck on “Completing…”, if I try to access http:/// I get a 404 error as you can see in the image.
These are all the php packages I installed:

php-common
php-gettext
php-imagick
php-pear
php-xml
php7.0-cli
php7.0-common
php7.0-curl
php7.0-fpm
php7.0-gd
php7.0-imap
php7.0-intl
php7.0-json
php7.0-mbstring
php7.0-mcrypt
php7.0-mysql
php7.0-opcache
php7.0-pspell
php7.0-readline
php7.0-recode
php7.0-sqlite3
php7.0-tidy
php7.0-xml
php7.0-xmlrpc
php7.0-xsl
php7.0-zip

The following is the site nextcloud I configurated on nginx

upstream php-handler {
    server unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}

# Default server configuration
#
server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;

    # SSL configuration
    #
     listen 443 ssl default_server;
     listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
     ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/certificate.crt;
     ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/private.key;
    #
    # Note: You should disable gzip for SSL traffic.
    # See: https://bugs.debian.org/773332
    #
    # Read up on ssl_ciphers to ensure a secure configuration.
    # See: https://bugs.debian.org/765782
    #
    # Self signed certs generated by the ssl-cert package
    # Don't use them in a production server!
    #
    # include snippets/snakeoil.conf;

    root /var/www/nextcloud;

    # Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP
    index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html index.php;

    server_name name.dyndns.info;

    location / {
        # First attempt to serve request as file, then
        # as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
    #
    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
    #
    #    # With php7.0-cgi alone:
    #    fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
    #    # With php7.0-fpm:
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
    }

    # deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
    # concurs with nginx's one
    #
    #location ~ /\.ht {
    #    deny all;
    #}
}

The nextcloud folder is in /var/www/nextcloud with owner www-data:root, and the folder with the files is in /nextcloud mounted on a NFS share, with owner www-data:root.
I checked the logs of nginx, php7.0 and nextcloud, but they are all empty.

The Nginx configuration needs work. See https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/10/admin_manual/installation/nginx_nextcloud_9x.html

Thank you very much.
For future reference the configuration from the documentation didn’t worked (I had a 502 error).
I had to change

upstream php-handler {
    server 127.0.0.1:9000;
    #server unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
}

to

upstream php-handler {
    #server 127.0.0.1:9000;
    server unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}
