After migration from owncloud to nextcloud I get error 500 from apache webserver. Apache log says: AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuratio n error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’ to increase the limit if necessary. Use ‘LogLevel debug’ to get a backtrace. With LogLevel debug I see the redirect loop in the error log: AH00121: r-\>uri = /index.php AH00122: redirected from r-\>uri = /php5-fcgi/index.php AH00122: redirected from r-\>uri = /index.php AH00122: redirected from r-\>uri = /php5-fcgi/index.php AH00122: redirected from r-\>uri = /index.php … ## Apache Config for php5-fpm: ## AddHandler php5-fcgi .php .html Action php5-fcgi /php5-fcgi Alias /php5-fcgi /homepages/mycloud/htdocs/php5-fcgi FastCgiExternalServer /homepages/mycloud/htdocs/php5-fcgi -idle-timeout 1000 -socket /var/run/php5-fpm\_mycloud.sock -pass-header Authorization Without .htaccess everything works fine.

Check out the apache community. By default our configuration is tested with mod\_php. There is also a configuration example for nginx with fastcgi and there have been some reports that in some cases these fastcgi/fpm/… configurations can create problems (or these users weren’t able to figure out a proper configuration). ---

There was some other issue with fcgi, not sure if you can configure your server like this and if this is an option for you: > [@Unable to access directories starting with a hash sign](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/unable-to-access-directories-starting-with-a-hash-sign/6308/5): > > Thanks, that set me on the right track. I previously used a ProxyPassMatch directive to connect to php-fpm: ProxyPassMatch ^/(.\*\.php(/.\*)?)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:$port/var/www/owncloud/$1 The snap code uses a FilesMatch block and defines a handler with SetHandler instead to connect to php-fpm. Apparrently that’s now the preferred way to do it: \ SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://127.0.0.1:$port" \ With that, access to the directory works again. I still wonder what … ---
