I request all of you to please suggest me a solution, have been at this since two days. Please ask for any support from me. I am glad to answer.

I could imagine localhost is pointing to caddy itself..

https://nextcloud.local is bad idea as you can’t have valid public TLS certs for such address and you must inject your self-signed certs everywhere.. check you containers with docker inspect (or equivalent command in windows docker) and try with real IPs to verify if the problem is related to dns and IP or another issue

@wwe, thanks for your reply.
I can re-install it too. if that domain

is really a bad idea. Can you suggest me exact steps, like any other domain ? If you are not suggesting that a proper resinstall would solve the problem, what exactly should I look into ?

In the video I attached, the youtuber actually uses “family.cloud” as the caddy reverse proxy.

Please suggest the changes required. Or guide me how to debug exactly. It would be much better if you give me commands to execute and I will paste the output here.

Sorry, I am very new to this. Your patience and help is much appreciated

I changed this to family.cloud

Now, this is the result in terminal :

PS C:\Users\Aanzil> ping family.cloud

Ping statistics for 192.168.1.8:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

But, still same result as earlier.

Note : I every time run the following script to properly reset my docker :

docker stop nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer
docker stop nextcloud-aio-domaincheck
docker ps --format '{{.Names}}'
docker stop nextcloud-aio-nextcloud
docker ps --filter "status=exited"
docker container prune
docker network rm nextcloud-aio
docker volume ls --filter "dangling=true"
docker volume prune --filter all=1
docker volume rm nextcloud_aio_backupdir
docker volume rm nextcloud_aio_nextcloud_datadir
docker volume ls --format '{{.Name}}'

along with emptying the space in :

F:\backup\nextcloud_data

But I could see some files are generated there :

this is same as .local - there is no valid TLS cert for this domain. Familiarize yourself with TLS certificates and use valid public domain.

sounds like firewall issue.. but might be related to TLS as well - as long caddy doesn’t have a cert for it likely it will refuse the connection. look at the logs..

I suspect you you only want one or the other of these; these are essentially in conflict.

I suggest following:

And possibly exploring other ways to do an AIO local-only deployment (if that is indeed what you’re trying to do; your use of nextcloud.local / an unregistered domain suggests you are, but your mention of a domain like “family.cloud” suggests maybe that you are not trying to do a local only install but maybe just haven’t registered a domain and set up DNS yet?).

Is there any particular reason you’re trying to use an external reverse proxy? I only ask because it’s unnecessary unless you’re running other services and/or some local-only scenarios..
