Nextcloud Installation on nginx

🚧 Installation
1

Hi community,

Im trying to install nextcloud on my server.
Ive followed the instructions in several howtos but now Im stucking.

When Ive entered the data on the installation screen I got a 404 error:
index.php/apps/files not found

Here my config:

server {
listen 80 default_server;
server_name my.domain 192.168.1.40;

root /var/www/nextcloud;

# Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP
index index.php index.html index.htm;

location / {
	# First attempt to serve request as file, then
	# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
	try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/nextcloud$fastcgi_script_name;
# fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param HTTPS on;
fastcgi_read_timeout 300;
}


listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot


if ($scheme != "https") {
    return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

}

Any suggestions?

I sugggest to use the configuration from here:
https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/12/admin_manual/installation/nginx.html#nextcloud-in-the-webroot-of-nginx

Hi Bernie_O,

Ive tried it but everytime I use this complex config I got a 502 error :frowning:

Ive googled for 502 bad gateway but I didnt found a solution.

Config: https://xburn3r.ddns.net:8081/owncloud/index.php/s/XiqJFPFfyyQS2iz

Are you supposed to be using php5? Your first config has a php7.0 sock file.

If so change:

   upstream php-handler {
        #server 127.0.0.1:9000;
        server unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
    }

To:

   upstream php-handler {
        #server 127.0.0.1:9000;
        server unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
    }

Not sure if you’ve figured it out as the last reply was back in October but this is the config I use on my nextcloud (which sits behind a proxy handling SSL) and is running Nginx for it’s webserver

server {
listen 80;
server_name my.domain.com;
