Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 23.0.3
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Ubuntu 20.04
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): Apache 2.4.53
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 8.0.17
The issue you are facing:
In the web app, navigating to Administration → Overview shows the following warning:
This instance uses an S3 based object store as primary storage. The uploaded files are stored temporarily on the server and thus it is recommended to have 50 GB of free space available in the temp directory of PHP. Check the logs for full details about the path and the available space. To improve this please change the temporary directory in the php.ini or make more space available in that path.
I have set up Nextcloud on a DigitalOcean VPS. It is running in a Docker container. Redis is enabled for caching and file locking.
Since server instance storage space is very expensive, I have connected an S3 compatible DigitalOcean object storage with 250GB storage space and configured it to be used as primary storage.
Nextcloud is currently running but it is giving me that warning message. Is there any way to address this without having to purchase over 50GB storage on the server instance? For reference, increasing the server instance storage would increase the price from $5/month to $20/month, which would put it out of my family’s price range to run Nextcloud.
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): Y
Steps to replicate it:
- Set up Nextcloud with S3 based object storage as primary storage.
- Log in to web app.
- Navigate to Administration → Overview.
