change the php-handler block in /etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf so it looks
like this one:
upstream php-handler {
server unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
}
Uncomment env[PATH] = /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin in /etc/php/php-fpm.d/www.conf
in /etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf:
change root to /usr/share/webapps/nextcloud

try to log in on nextcloud for android -> âMalformed server configurationâ
All config files I changed:
/usr/share/webapps/nextcloud/config/config.php:
/etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf:
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
/etc/php/php-fpm.d/www.conf
/etc/php/php.ini
For all other errors, I have been able to get some clue as to what is going on and debug them, but this is giving me no real feedback, so I felt like I needed to go somewhere for help. Hopefully someone here can find an error in my configuration, or at least how to view some useful logs in this situation. If you have any further questions about the situation, please ask me.
