Summary of the issue you are facing:
when i’m trying to use nginx as the revers proxy server instead of apache (move that i want to do due to some other application that works better with nginx), i can’t access file , the webpage loads fine but no file , also the destop app dosn’t work.
both apache and nginx are on the www-data user which has full permission as i’m running the server with apache for 3 years or so.
can’t understand why as there permisson and the web page does load.
Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):
- configure nginx to be the revers proxy
- load the nextcload deployment page
Log entries
Nextcloud
No logs for some reason (maybe the move back and forth between apache and nginx)
Web server / Reverse Proxy
The output of your Apache/nginx/system log in /var/log/____
:
nginx error logs are empty
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!):
$CONFIG = array (
'instanceid' => '<>',
'passwordsalt' => '<>',
'secret' => '<>,
'trusted_domains' =>
array (
0 => '<domain>',
),
'datadirectory' => '/home/pi/8TBRaid/nextcloud/nextcloud-data/',
'dbtype' => 'mysql',

'overwrite.cli.url' => '<URL>',

### 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.
