I can get the AIO installer to work perfectly on my Windows 10 computer when I donāt set the data directory and just use the default, but when I change the data directory to an external hard drive --env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR="/run/desktop/mnt/host/f/Nextcloud I get this error:
+ '[' -f /dev-dri-group-was-added ']'
++ find /dev -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name dri
+ '[' -n '' ']'
+ set +x

Please reset AIO properly and try again. For further clues what went wrong, check the logs above.

Iāve tried mounting the folder into the image by adding the --env NEXTCLOUD_MOUNT="/run/desktop/mnt/host/f/Nextcloud/ and Iāve tried to manually change the ownership using docker exec -it nextcloud-aio-nextcloud chown -R 33:0 /run/desktop/mnt/host/f/Nextcloud/ and docker exec -it nextcloud-aio-nextcloud chmod -R 750 /run/desktop/mnt/host/f/Nextcloud/ but since the nextcloud-aio-nextcloud container was constantly resetting itself, it didnāt seem to work. The command I run is shown below and if the --env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR argument is removed it works totally fine, except that it is storing the datadir on the main SSD, which has very little space.
Oh I forgot to mention, I reset it completely using those directions each time, and Iāve done it so frequently I made a little powershell script that goes like this:
By reset F:\Nextcloud do you mean delete it and remake it? I tried this once before, but just to be sure I just added in the lines
rm -r F:\Nextcloud
mkdir F:\Nextcloud
to the little script and reran it, then reinstalled the docker and I get the same error repeated over and over again:
+ '[' -f /dev-dri-group-was-added ']'
++ find /dev -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name dri
+ '[' -n '' ']'
+ set +x

Yes that works in windows when run on powershell (which converts a lot of basic linux commands pretty well). I still get the same error about resetting the AIO properly and Iām not sure what to modify or change to get it running on that F:\ drive. If you have any additional recommendations or advice Iād really appreciate it. Thanks.
No itās attached by USB. I might have tried other folders for the DATADIR in trying to get this to work, perhaps I havenāt deleted one of them and itās causing the error, although when I run the command without the --env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR command it works fine. I just went back and deleted any of the ones I know about but they are all empty. Is there a way to find these dangling folders somewhere? Iām not sure where they would be saved since these are brand new instances of the docker run command.
What are the chances! I went through that post, but I donāt see a solution. Your last recommendation is what I have been doing by using the --env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR argument. The only differences I see are the --init (which I removed and didnāt make a difference) and the changes for the reverse proxy Iām using (which shouldnāt cause an issue of nextcloud installation with the error I have posted). I pasted the running command below:
When I run it normally and look in the /run/ folder in the master container I only see apache, sudo, supervised, and docker.sock folders. When I look in the nextcloud-aio-nextcloud container I see samba, sudo, and supervised. It definitely seems like a mounting or volume issue, but when I make a volume it doesnāt seem to work. For example I made a volume with
When I ran this it installed properly, but I didnāt see any of the installation files or setup files in the F:\Nextcloud folder at all while in the docker in the /data folder they are there. Is there a proper way to link that volume so that they are accessible? Perhaps there some weird trick to do with docker seeing the /run/desktop/mnt/hostpath or docker changed it, or thereās some setting the blocks it that I can disable? Iām quite puzzled.
Change the āNEXTCLOUD_DATADIRā at the end to something like /run/desktop/mnt/host/d/ncdata, the last part ā/d/ncdataā is the windows location in linux format. āD:\ncdataā = ād/ncdataā
Well Iāve tried this so many times that Iām getting this error now:

"message": "You have reached your pull rate limit. You may (truncated...)

Which is rather frustrating. Nonetheless, I turned off my caddy and tried the snippet you had above when the folder didnāt exist, and it seemed to give an error (but only because it couldnāt download the other containers). I tried again where the folder was already made and the nextcloud logs throw this error:

None of these times did I notice any files put into the target data folders on the windows machine.
Honestly I can try any other way to install it if you have any recommendations, this has been very frustrating, although Iām not familiar with VM software and imagine Iād hit similar roadbumps.
Delete all nextcloud containers, images, volumes from docker
From the windows console, run the command Iāve given you, make sure you change the folder to what you need.
After the initial container is running. Navigate to 'https://localhost:8080 in your browser.
Start the install process, from the web interface.
Be patient. It takes some time for the install to complete.
If you do this, after the install completes, you should see some folders and files in the folder from step 2. Theses are the data files from NC. And any new files you add through NC should show up there.
FYI, I just did this today, on a Win 10 Pro machine with a secondary drive and worked perfectly.
that you just posted.
3-5. I went to https://localhost:8080/ and followed the install like normal with my domain, which gave no error. I deselected all the optional add-ons since Iāll add them later if I want them, saved changes, then hit Download and start containers.
When it went to the next page Apache, Nextcloud, and Notify push are all yellow and (starting), whereas Reddis and Database are green and (running). When I check the logs, I note that for Nextcloud it gives this error which repeats and Nextcloud never turns green:
+ '[' -f /dev-dri-group-was-added ']'
++ find /dev -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name dri
+ '[' -n '' ']'

It is! I thought that linux could read NTFS, but in my experience it has all sorts of permission errors with it still for some reasonā¦ Perhaps I can reformat it as exFAT? Do you think that would help?
I looked and perhaps the reason it works for you is that you are running Win10 Pro and Iām running Win10 Home. It seems that Pro can do HyperV whereas Home runs it through WSL. Could someone try it on a Win10 Home computer and let me know? If not then Iām just going to wipe my computer and use ubuntu, because this has been such a hassle.
