Hello - Let me start with this: yes, I’ve read the forums, and no, I can’t seem to find a solution to my problem; if you have one, please share it - I’m at witt’s end!
OS: Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS bionic Server
Installation: latest-9.tar.bz2
PHP: 7.3, 7.4 and 8.0 (Currently on 7.4)
I’ve navigated to my SERVER/nextcloud, and get: This version of Nextcloud is not compatible with PHP 7.1. You are currently running 7.4.30.
From what I can tell, Nextcloud should be fine to run - since I’m running a supported version… but this is all I see. What am I doing wrong? I thought I had it installed - am I missing something? At the end of my rope here; hopefully I’ve provided enough info.
Where did you get that latest-9.zip from? Version 9.0.58 was the initial Nextcloud release from 2016! As far as I know, the current PHP version at that time was still 5.6 or at most 7.0. Please download the latest release of Nextcloud and reinstall.
No wonder. The new homepage Install - Nextcloud is really no longer usable.
So you first have to see the section “Download Server” at the bottom and then choose “Community projects” to find the download there. As a beginner, I would probably look there last. Why not at first position. Or am i so old that all beginners today only use container and enterprise versions? And “one click signups” has nothing to do with having your own server.
