Internal Server Error During First-Time Deployment with Docker Compose

Hello everyone,

I’m encountering an issue while deploying our Nextcloud server for the first time using Docker Compose. The error message I’m seeing is:

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.

I’ve checked the server logs, but I’m still not sure how to resolve this. Has anyone experienced this before or can provide guidance on how to fix it?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Which image? Can you share your Compose?

It’s possible you’re encountering this, which fortunately has several easy workarounds pending a new upstream release (where this is fixed): [bug] Internal Server Error after installation of 29.0.5 · Issue #2283 · nextcloud/docker · GitHub

Easiest workarounds:

  • Install the 29.0.4 image variation (via Docker tags in the image command)
  • Specify NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_USER / NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_PASS (which bypasses the web installer)
