How to enter nextcloud internally(nextcloud aio running behind nginx proxy manager)

Hello there,

I am new to all these self-hosted service and I am able to access nextcloud if I am accessing it through the domain and using external network, but how do access it internally? as I need to upload files to it using home network. if I enter the doamin when using the home network it will just point me to my router’s config page. I know it is kind of a dumb question, but could anyone help me out?

nextcloud aio is running using docker compose

version: “3.8”

volumes:
nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer:
name: nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer

services:
nextcloud:
image: nextcloud/all-in-one:latest
restart: always
container_name: nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer
volumes:
- nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer:/mnt/docker-aio-config
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
ports:
- 8080:8080
environment:
- APACHE_PORT=11000
- NEXTCLOUD_UPLOAD_LIMIT=100G
- NEXTCLOUD_MEMORY_LIMIT=4096M
- SKIP_DOMAIN_VALIDATION=true

thanks a lot

hello @bickyxd welcome to the forum :handshake:

Please use the search - lot of issues have been discussed already.

While it’s possible technically there lot of reasons not to use internal IP to access the system. Best approach is so-called split-brain DNS as described here: Lost acces from inside LAN - #14 by wwe and how-can-i-access-nextcloud-locally
