I was able to deploy nexcloudpi successfully using portainer (image: ownyourbits/nextcloudpi-armhf:latest) but afterr realizing I was using my SD card’s storage space I decided to delete and redeploy the container … this time binding a directory in my RAID1 array:
container -> /data
host -> /srv/dev-disk-by-id-md-name-raspberrypi-0/Nextcloud
And that’s when everything failed… Aparently there is some problem with the database… from the portainer log:

I am not very well versed into these things, which is why I went with nexcloud pi , openmediavault and portainer but it seems there is a problem… I see that something got created in the Nexcloud folder but have no clue what to do about this issue… Any pointers will be appreciated
here is the output of lsblk in case it is useful:

EDIT: I also discovered that this is probably why I get stuck at the Nextcloud Pi Activation page…
