- Web server and version (e.g, Apache 2.4.25):
Apache from docker
- Reverse proxy and version _(e.g. nginx 1.27.2)
Nginx in router
- PHP version (e.g, 8.3):
PHP from docker
- Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Yes / No):
Yes
- When did this problem seem to first start?

Summary of the issue you are facing:
Migrated AIO instance to Nextcloud docker (community). After migration, all users (total 4) gets logged out at same time from all different Nextcloud client on daily cadence.
Docker is running on Ubuntu and is behind nginx reverse proxy which is installed in openwrt router.
Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):
- Migrate from AIO instance to docker
- Retain same config.php except for aio specific entries
- Continue to use same nginx configuration as in AIO instance
- Login to Nextcloud client like iOS, web, Android, Windows with login password / app password.
Expected result:
User to be logged in different client / web unless there is no session activity and session time out.
Actual result:
All users that uses this server gets logged out from all clients on daily cadence. All previously generated app tokens get invalidated.

Configuration
Nextcloud
The output of occ config:list system
or similar is best, but, if not possible, the contents of your config.php
file from /path/to/nextcloud
is fine (make sure to remove any identifiable information!):

### Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response
* Use the `preformatted text` formatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output.
* If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
- If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.
* Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.
