Issue summary: Changing the nextcloud access URL from http://192.168.2.200/ to http://192.168.2.200/cloud makes uploaded data inaccessible.
Docker Nextcloud tag: nextcloud:16.0.11-apache
Docker Nginx tag: nginx:1.19.0
Host Operating system and version: Ubuntu 20.04
Host Access URL: http://192.168.2.200/
When using nginx as a reverse proxy, and nextcloud with / as the URL path (i.e. overwritewebroot' => '/'), I can see all my data files that I’ve uploaded after I log in.
However, when I make modifications to the nginx.conf file and the nextcloud/config/config.php file to change the cloud’s URL path to /cloud, I don’t see the data files I uploaded when I log in, and instead see the following error:
This directory is unavailable, please check the logs or contact the administrator
Here are my configuration files (I’ve added in comments what I’ve changed between the broken/working case).
nextcloud/config.php:
<?php
$CONFIG = array (
'htaccess.RewriteBase' => '/',
'trusted_domains' =>
array (
0 => 'localhost',
1 => '192.168.2.200',
),
'datadirectory' => '/var/www/html/data',
'dbtype' => 'pgsql',
'version' => '16.0.11.1',
'overwrite.cli.url' => 'http://192.168.2.200',
'overwritewebroot' => '/cloud', # CHANGED FROM '/'
'trusted_proxies' =>
array (
