Hey! So I wanted to install nextcloud on docker using docker-compose. But when I insert my creditentals I get this error. ![](https://i.imgur.com/Ju8d0iN.png) The Nextcloud and the mariadb setup is completly fresh. Compose file looking like this. > db: > image: mariadb:10.6.0 > container\_name: mariadb > volumes: > - /srv/homeautomation/mariadb:/var/lib/mysql > - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro > environment: > - MYSQL\_ROOT\_PASSWORD=password123 > networks: > - db\_network > restart: unless-stopped > nextcloud: > image: nextcloud:21.0.1 > container\_name: nextcloud > networks: > - db\_network > depends\_on: > - db > volumes: > - /srv/homeautomation/nextcloud:/var/www/html > - /srv/homeautomation/nextcloud/config:/var/www/html/config > - /srv/homeautomation/nextcloud/custom\_apps:/var/www/html/custom\_apps > - /srv/homeautomation/nextcloud/data:/var/www/html/data > - /srv/homeautomation/nextcloud/themes:/var/www/html/themes > - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro > - /Disk1:/data > ports: > - “8083:80/tcp” > restart: unless-stopped ---

im my docker setup I defined a user dedicated for Nextcloud (besides mysqlroot). I’m not an expert in MariaDB but maybe an application is simply not allowed to use root credentials. try adding Nextcloud DB and Nextcloud user (and use this credentials for NC setup): ```auto environment: - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD} - MYSQL_PASSWORD=pwdOfNextcloudUser - MYSQL_DATABASE=nextcloud - MYSQL_USER=nextcloud ``` > hint: you can use environment files like .env - it makes easier to use and change settings - if you use ${NC\_MYSQL\_PWD} multiple times you only need to change it once in your .env file… ---

Hey, thanks for the answer. Sadly I just tried it and it doesn’t work. Still the same error. ---

Did you specify the mysql password environment variable also for your nextcloud container? ---

Yup just tried it with the mysql\_password variable in the nextcloud container. That didn’t work. Also setting every mysql variable(Host, Password, User and Database) didnt work sadly. Still the same error as above. ---

Seems to be related to MariaDB 10.6, which by the way is currently in alpha status: > ##### MariaDB starting with [10.6](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/what-is-mariadb-106/) > > From [MariaDB 10.6.0](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-1060-release-notes/), tables that are of the `COMPRESSED` row format are read-only by default. This is the first step towards removing write support and deprecating the feature. > > Set the [innodb\_read\_only\_compressed](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/innodb-system-variables/#innodb_read_only_compressed) variable to `OFF` to make the tables writable. > **[InnoDB COMPRESSED Row Format](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/innodb-compressed-row-format/)** > > Similar to the COMPACT row format, but can store even more data on overflow pages. ---

Please start with the [official](https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud) docker-compose file - this is doesn’t cover everything you want (e.g. no cron and redis) but it is good starting point… ```auto version: '2' volumes: nextcloud: db: services: db: image: mariadb restart: always command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --binlog-format=ROW volumes: - db:/var/lib/mysql environment: - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD= - MYSQL_PASSWORD= - MYSQL_DATABASE=nextcloud - MYSQL_USER=nextcloud app: image: nextcloud restart: always ports: - 8080:80 links: - db volumes: - nextcloud:/var/www/html environment: - MYSQL_PASSWORD= - MYSQL_DATABASE=nextcloud - MYSQL_USER=nextcloud - MYSQL_HOST=db ``` another more complex setup I posted [here](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/totally-baffled-how-to-get-started-newbie-alert/112181/24). But I strongly recommend to start with an easy example and add complexity once more simple setup works. ---

Sooo. The fix was actually pretty easy for mariadb 10.6.0. @Chartman123 lead me in the right direction. Adding > command: --innodb-read-only-compressed=OFF fixes the error. The other stuff that is in the offical docker-compose file isn’t needed for this to be fixed(Not really sure what that does anyway). Thanks for the help! ---

Hi, can you maybe elaborate on how you fixed this? I tried to exec into the container and run ```auto mysqld --innodb-read-only-compressed=OFF ``` but it didn’t work ![grafik](https://help.nextcloud.com/uploads/default/original/3X/b/5/b56dcdf928e92ed31e3d436ed2039057d6b03610.png) It basically said: Don’t touch me, you don’t know what your doing! Or should i just edit some config file withing the volume? (from outside the container?) ---

Just running this command probably wouldn’t help much as it’s not persistent. So just add the command when you run the container. ---

Alright, thanks 🙂 ! creating a command section in my docker-compose.yml file worked: ![grafik](https://help.nextcloud.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/a/fa121c376d0c3ed78114287b5995018737533a74.png) ---

Why hasn’t this been added to the official docker-compose file? This is still a problem. ---
