Need help resolving Security & setup warnings

Hello,

I have many Security and setup warnings that I have no clue how to resolve. I tried following the documentation links beside each warning but I don’t understand much of it, I’m not really PHP savvy at all. I’ve attached a screenshot of all the warnings.

I also have issues with my Crons Job not updated. Screenshot below of how its set up on cPanel.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The issue you are facing:

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N):

Steps to replicate it:

The output of your Nextcloud log in Admin > Logging:

PASTE HERE

The output of your config.php file in /path/to/nextcloud (make sure you remove any identifiable information!):

PASTE HERE

The output of your Apache/nginx/system log in /var/log/____:

PASTE HERE

Output errors in nextcloud.log in /var/www/ or as admin user in top right menu, filtering for errors. Use a pastebin service if necessary.

Th fist orange message can easily be solved by adding the following line to the config.php file of Nextcloud (example: sudo nano var/www/nextcloud/config/config.php):
‘maintenance_window_start’ => 5,

Do not forget the comma at the end of the line!
The number 5 indicates the actual hour at which the maintenance window starts. In this case 5 means at 05:00 AM UTC! Calculate the UTC you need!

The second orange message can be solved by configuring the php.ini file:
(example: sudo nano /etc/php/8.1/apache2/php.ini)

  1. With Control+W search for opcache.enable=1. Ensure that the line is uncomment (deleting the :wink:
  2. uncommnt the line with the text opcache.interned_strings_buffer=32. Set the value to 32
  3. Search for opcache.revalidate_freq=60. Uncomment the line and verify the value. Set to 60.
  4. Search for the line with opcache.save_comments=1. uncomment the line and set the value to 1

Save the file with Control+X and ‘Y’
Then restart the webserver with sudo systemctl restart apache2

This will do the trick. Please let us know how the results are…
