The issue you are facing:

I can’t active SSL from the webpanel of NextcloudPi

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): Y

Steps to replicate it:

  1. I go the SSL tab on the left
  2. I check “active” and change the password.
  3. I click “apply”

The output of your Nextcloud log in Admin > Logging:

[ SSH ] (Thu Mar 31 20:17:32 BST 2022)
New password: Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully
Wrong salt length: 3 bytes when 8 <= n <= 16 expected.
Synchronizing state of ssh.service with SysV service script with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install disable ssh
The user pi is using the default password. Refusing to activate SSH
SSH disabled

run ncp-update and try again

That worked. Thank you for the quick help.
