🚧 Installation

Hi all,

Just trying to do a new setup of nextcloud connected to postgresql
so this is the setup i have nextcloud 14.0.3 and postgresql 11
when i put all the infromation regarding the connection to the postgresql database
in the log i see the following
Message":"Failed to connect to the database: An exception occured in driver: SQLSTATE[08006] [7] FATAL: client authentication failed\nDETAIL: no pool_hba.conf entry for host “”, user “”, database “postgres”, SSL off\nHINT
But i can see that it wants to connect to postgres database and i have put an other database name in there.
So why is that variable not picked up?
Regards
Filip

Postgresql 11 is not supported yet: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/14/admin_manual/installation/system_requirements.html#server

If you have important data stored in postgresql, make sure to research how to downgrade safely. Otherwise you can just downgrade it and re-initialize it to start with a clean slate.

Inx,

that is not the point for the moment.
AS it will not even conenct to the database as it is trying to connect to postgres database as i am telling the system it needs to connect to a nextcloud db not postgres it does not use the correct values that you put in to the first installation wizard that is my point.
