Summary of the issue you are facing:

Inspecting Contacts and found that the only user’s Federated Cloud ID was incorrect. Researched and found good advice about setting it, but it wasn’t changing anything.

Created new user to test with, the advice had resolved the issue at some point and the new user has the correct ID.

Original user has the original private IP as the domain.

Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):

  1. Create Nextcloud installation, logging in behind via private IP

  2. Setup reverse proxy and expose to internet, configure reverse proxy settings appropriately

  3. new users get new domain, but original user still has provisioning IP as federated cloud id in contacts

Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response

  • Use the preformatted text formatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output.
  • If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
    • If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.
  • Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.
