I just installed Nextcloud 15.0.4.on a completely fresh Ubuntu 18.04 server. I created a few groups and users and then installed and activated Collabra. Although it allows me to create new documents, I can not open them. When I try, I get the message
Failed to load Collabora Online - please try again later
I donāt have the foggiest idea how to approach this problem and appreciate some help. I am happy to provide any information necessary, if I know whatās needed.
Reading your message, it seems that you only installed and activated the Collabora Online app in nextcloud.
If thatās it, then you also need to install a Collabora Online server.
The basic instructions are here:
Thanks for the swift reply. And spot on, because I did not realize that I also have to install Collabra Online Server. Iāll give that a try and report back with the results.
Apparently itās not that easy peasy lemon squeezy. I installed Collabora. The native CODE packages, because my VPS setup does not support docker properly. I followed the blog post Running Collabora Online Development Edition without Docker and changed ālocalhostā in the loolwsd.xml file into my Nextcloud domain. Unfortunately I still get the same error.
Judging the name āmjanssensā I guess youāre Dutch. Is it possible to have voice contact about this issue?
Thanks for your input. But Iām curious. Why would someone prefer the 3.0.0 - nightly (Unstable) over the presumed stable and quite newer 3.2.1 version?
To change the app solved my problems and I had the message āFailed to load Collabora Online - please try again laterā too. And I lost many (to many) hours to find an error in my setup.
Makes sense But it brings me to the next hurdle: how do I install that nightly build? I read somewhere that I should download and extract it in the apps directory, which I did. I should then click install, but I can not find the app. Can you point me in the right direction?
In your app directory there should be an directory ārichdocumentsā. You should look which user/group the other directories in your app directory have e.g www-data/www-data.
Then do a
āsudo chown -R www-data:www-data richdocumentsā (www-data or any other user/group you may be using)
Open your Nextcloud in your webbrowser and go to āsettingsā There you should find somewhere ācollaboraā. Open it and fill in the address of your Collabora online server.
Iām giving up. Although I finally managed to install and enable the 3.0.0 version, I now run into other problems. I guess I have to admit not having enough knowledge, experience and patience to set this up.
Donāt give up too soon, there isnāt one wisedom as there are many variables. So knowledge and experience come when you allow yourself some patience and take steps at your own pace. Best way is to understand what you are doing instead of just following some guides or advice.
I did a fresh installation of Ubuntu 18.04, Nextcloud 15.05 and Collabora Online 3.2.3., but unfortunately āFailed to load Collabora Online - please try again laterā
WOPI discovery URL and Collabora Admin Console are working.
Please either post the error you are getting from the nextcloud.log or the httd-error.log. These are probably going to be located in the /var/log directory.

That problem ā the forum is littered with that error. I have no idea how to resolve this problem. I have the same problem and have never resolved. Look at this post. Near the bottom there is post about someone who temporarily switched domain names. GuzzleHttp Name Already in Use.
