Hi, I’m with nextcloud 10. fresh installation. installed nc10 on /nextcloud. mod\_env and mod\_rewrite already enabled,and followed steps below:  
sudo vim /var/www/nextcloud/config/config.php  
Add ‘htaccess.RewriteBase’ =\> ‘/nextcloud’,  
sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:update:htaccess

I still can’t get rid of index.php ,why?
