Summary of the issue you are facing:
I’ve attempted a new install, below I’ve included a link to a pastebin file with my docker-compose file. My knowledge of Linux is very weak, I tried to get by with ChatGPT with little success.
I’m using the developer build as the latest build doesn’t work with the latest version of Docker.
I’ve got the domain working, caddy too and can see the Nextcloud login page but after populating the details I see “Internal Server Error” and “The server was unable to complete your request”.
When I retry, it tells me the login is already used so it appears to be saving something.
Is there something wrong in my compose file? Note that Docker is installed in the C:\Docker directory but I want NextCloud storing it’s data on my D:\ drive.
Note the username and password are just for my testing, when I can get a proof of concept working my plan is to re-do the compose file and set up with proper values.
Content from docker-compose file.
Thank you in advance for any support, I have read various documentation and tried a variety of things - this is the furthest I’ve got and struggling.
