Nextcloud version 15
Operating system and version Ubuntu 16.04
Using Nextcloud in Docker from GitHub - nextcloud/docker: ⛴ Docker image of Nextcloud

The issue you are facing:
According to: Encryption configuration — Nextcloud latest Administration Manual latest documentation

“To avoid all this, create a Recovery Key. Go to the Encryption section of your Admin page and set a recovery key password.”

Well, I don’t have that option and I am signed in as admin.

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? Y

Steps to replicate it:

  1. login as admin
  2. go to settings
  3. go to Security
  4. scroll to Server-side encryption

Please file a bug report on github.com/nextcloud/server/issues, I am not sure if this option is always available or only in the beginning, so it could be a problem of the documentation as well.
