Configuration
I add the nextcloud.subdomain.conf file in the swag/nginx/proxy.confs directory
## Version 2025/07/18
# make sure that your nextcloud container is named nextcloud
# make sure that your dns has a cname set for nextcloud
# assuming this container is called “swag”, edit your nextcloud container’s config
# located at /config/www/nextcloud/config/config.php and add the following lines before the “);”:
# ‘trusted_proxies’ => [gethostbyname(‘swag’)],
# ‘overwrite.cli.url’ => ‘https://nextcloud.example.com/’,
# ‘overwritehost’ => ‘nextcloud.example.com’,
# ‘overwriteprotocol’ => ‘https’,
#
# Also don’t forget to add your domain name to the trusted domains array. It should look somewhat like this:
# array (
# 0 => ‘192.168.0.1:444’, # This line may look different on your setup, don’t modify it.
# 1 => ‘nextcloud.example.com’,
# ),

Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response
- Use the
preformatted textformatting 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.
