I can’t access my NexCloudPi on Android (LineageOS, Android 8.1, with the most recent updates) through https://nextcloudpi.local .
Firefox gives a “Server not found” error. All NextCloud apps also fail to connect. On my Linux laptop, a MacBook Pro, and old iPod Touch it works without issues. I am using the provided self-signed certificate.
I feel this should be common issue (it’s all pretty much on default) but I’m not finding any post describing the same problem. How can I get get this working on Android?
As I’m a newbie regarding NextCloudPi take what I say with a pinch. But I had the exact same symptoms after an initial install, and after I changed to a fixed IP.
Turns out, somehow, that there was a subnet mismatch in the network config. As soon as I corrected it I was able to connect via Android and Windows apps.
You can’t get this working on Android as it doesn’t support mDNS, see https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/1418. I’m using static IP which is problematic when it’s not so static.
