Is there any hack, how to install it please?
Thank you.

Which script is this? Please provide a link to the script you are using, otherwise we can’t really help.

tom.i · August 6, 2023, 12:02pm

This one: nextcloudpi/install.sh at master · nextcloud/nextcloudpi · GitHub
I’ve tried also this one from wiki:

Curl install scripts

This is executed as root as indicated by the #
# curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/master/install.sh | bash

Both shows me same result.

bb77 · August 6, 2023, 12:14pm

You could remove the following section from the script:

# check distro
check_distro etc/ncp.cfg || {
  echo "ERROR: distro not supported:";
  cat /etc/issue
  exit 1;
}

Or you could change the release name in this file https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/blob/master/etc/ncp.cfg

However, I would not recommend doing so, becauase the script obviously is not yet tested on Bookworm, which could lead to further issues.

EDIT:
Debian 12 Bookworm is not yet supported: Debian 12 Bookworm Support · Issue #1730 · nextcloud/nextcloudpi · GitHub

So, I’d recommend using an Armbian Image based on Bullseye, in order to avoid issues. Once Booworm is officially supported by the NCP team, I’m pretty sure there will be an upgrade path to Bookworm.

I also put your post into the Appliances section and added the tag ncp to it. Maybe someone from the NCP folks would like to comment here, otherwise you can follow the GitHub issue I linked to for news regarding Bookworm support.

I’ve tried that, but it crashed due to dependancy issue on php8.1 version from sury’s repository, which is also just for bullseye :-/

You could try to change the release name in this file https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/blob/master/etc/ncp.cfg. Whether this will work depends on whether they are using the variable from the ncp.cfg file or if they hardcoded the deb sources for the Sury Repos.

Anyways, as I already added to my previous post, NextcloudPi doesn’t support Bookworm just yet. This means, even if you somehow manage to install it via the script, you still cannot be completly sure that everything will work without issues after you installed it.

So unless you want to go through all the files and scripts, and basically maintain your own version of NextcloudPi, I’d suggest you install it on Bullseye and upgrade to Bookworm once it is officially supported.

Finally, I’ve managed to do it myself
Few problems occurs, but it was ok I’ve solve them without problem, mainly about different name of php libs, exfat utils and so on.
Some problem with installing and starting up dnsmasq service.
One issue after installing with activating, but this thread helped: NextCloudPlus not yet initialized, trying again in a few seconds
So actually I’m on NCP 27.0.1 on Debian 12 - Bookworm.
