The main issue: The container nextcloud-aio-nextloud takes more than 25 minutes to start. I expect it to start in no more than 2 minutes. There is barely any load on the system while it is starting.
Eventually Nextcloud is starting normally, and it seems to work reanonably well. But I also have a cloud VPS at Hetzner with 4 cores, 8GB and that starts normally - and it has a lot of apps installed and a few hundred GB of data.
I’m running Nextcloud AIO v7.2.1
What is my setup?
At home, behind my router, on a mini-pc with a Ryzen 7 7840HS. I’m running Proxmox 8 with two VMs.
vm1 is running only nextcloud.
vm2 is running SWAG and several services. SWAG is reverse proxy to vm1 as well.
vm1 has 8 virtual cores and 16GB RAM.
I enabled all services for nextcloud, including ClamAV, Talk recording. But without those two it was equally slow. Also, only Apache, Notify push and Nextcloud are still ‘starting’. The first two are just waiting for Nextcloud to start.
My docker compose on vm1:
services:
nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer:
image: nextcloud/all-in-one:latest
init: true
restart: always
container_name: nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer # This line is not allowed to be changed as otherwise AIO will not work correctly
volumes:

- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro # May be changed on macOS, Windows or docker rootless. See the applicable documentation. If adjusting, don't forget to also set 'WATCHTOWER_DOCKER_SOCKET_PATH'!
ports:
- 8080:8080

- 8443:8443 # Can be removed when running behind a web server or reverse proxy (like Apache, Nginx, Cloudflare Tunnel and else). See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/reverse-proxy.md

- APACHE_PORT=11000 # Is needed when running behind a web server or reverse proxy (like Apache, Nginx, Cloudflare Tunnel and else). See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/reverse-proxy.md

- NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=/home/myuser/nextcloud/data # Allows to set the host directory for Nextcloud's datadir. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Warning: do not set or adjust this value after the initial Nextcloud installation is done! See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-change-the-default-location-of-nextclouds-datadir
- NEXTCLOUD_MEMORY_LIMIT=1024M # Can be adjusted if you need more. See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-adjust-the-php-memory-limit-for-nextcloud
- NEXTCLOUD_ADDITIONAL_APKS=imagemagick # This allows to add additional packages to the Nextcloud container permanently. Default is imagemagick but can be overwritten by modifying this value. See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-add-os-packages-permanently-to-the-nextcloud-container
- NEXTCLOUD_ENABLE_DRI_DEVICE=false # This allows to enable the /dev/dri device in the Nextcloud container. ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Warning: this only works if the '/dev/dri' device is present on the host! If it should not exist on your host, don't set this to true as otherwise the Nextcloud container will fail to start! See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-enable-hardware-transcoding-for-nextcloud
- SKIP_DOMAIN_VALIDATION=true
volumes:
nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer:
name: nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer # This line is not allowed to be changed as otherwise the built-in backup solution will not work
I explicitly set NEXTCLOUD_ENABLE_DRI_DEVICE to false because the log from nextcloud-aio-nextloud starts with something about /dev/dri:
2023-09-22 17:49:36.668909+00
(1 row)
+ '[' -f /dev-dri-group-was-added ']'
++ find /dev -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name dri
+ '[' -n '' ']'
+ set +x

I set SKIP_DOMAIN_VALIDATION=true because without that I couldn’t get the proxy server to work. My SWAG/Nginx nextcloud.subdomain.conf on vm2 looks like this:
server {
listen 443 ssl;
#listen [::]:443 ssl;
server_name nc.mydomain.com;
#include /config/nginx/ssl.conf;
client_max_body_size 0;
location / {
include /config/nginx/proxy.conf;
# resolver 127.0.0.11 valid=30s;
proxy_pass http://192.168.2.154:11000;
}
}
Here is the log from nextcloud-aio-nextcloud after it started.

The time in this docker is 2 hours behind the time on the vm by the way.
My router is forwarding ports 80 and 443 to vm2 (the reverse proxy). I forwarded port 3478 (Talk) to vm1, although I’m not sure that is correct and it did not solve this problem anyway.
I’m out of my league here. Is it something to do with the reverse proxy settings? Something with the firewall from my router? Is Nextcloud trying to verify something or waiting for something at every step?
