Hi
I’ve lost my root disk and mariaDB database with the datas of my Nextcloud 34.0.1
I’ve got /var/www/nextcloud direcory in an other disk with no data loss
I want keep all my files without downloading all files again (238Gb)
I’m on Debian 13 (same installation)
Actually I have a road map but I don’t know if it’s a good idea :
- rename /var/www/nextcloud in /var/www/nextcloud-old : done
- make a new data base with MariaDB (done but it’s empty)
- make a new folder /var/www/nextcloud with the ZIP file in version 34.0.1 : done
- run the installation of the new Nextcloud for /var/www/nextcloud (not done, I don’t want to make a mistake)
- put the new Nextcloud in maintenance mode with : sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ maintenance:mode –on
- move the file of /var/www/nextcloud-old/data in /var/www/nextcloud/data (maybe, all the file of the new installation in the old installation but not files/folder in data folder)
- check the right access of files/folders and owners and groups
- make a scan of all files in data folder with : sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ files:scan –all
- delete the maintenance mode with sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ maintenance:mode –off
Thanks for your attention/help/…
