The issue you are facing:
I moved the nextcloud server from one RAID Array to another using DD while Nextcloud was in Maintenance mode. I unfortunately only tested if the server was running and accessible, not if my Nextcloud instance was running properly.
After some days I tried accessing my Nextcloud instance and got this error message in the web interface:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator if this error reappears multiple times, please include the technical details below in your report.
More details can be found in the server log.
Running the OCC command returns the following output:
An unhandled exception has been thrown:
Doctrine\DBAL\Exception: Failed to connect to the database: An exception occurred in the driver: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory in /var/www/nextcloud/lib/private/DB/Connection.php:139

Steps to replicate it:
- Send your nextcloud instance into maintenance mode using the OCC command
- Clone your system using DD
- Reboot your system and attempt to access it via the web interface

Nextcloud.log contained no information connected to this issue, all error messages are older than the earliest instance of this issue.
I need help getting my instance running again, I have an up to date backup on an hard drive that was made using the same procedure so I assume it to have the same issue.
Thanks for your patience
