Set server geo-location

how do I set a server location? I search for location in Installation and server configuration — Nextcloud latest Administration Manual latest documentation

do you mean the server locale?

add the following options to config.php

example German:

  'default_language' => 'de',
  'default_locale' => 'de_DE',
  'default_phone_region' => 'DE',

example English:

  'default_language' => 'en',
  'default_locale' => 'en_GB',
  'default_phone_region' => 'GB',

or using occ commands

occ config:system:set default_language --value="en"
occ config:system:set default_locale --value="en_GB"
occ config:system:set default_phone_region --value="GB"

see supported locales

actually I meant server location. Users get shown this:

But I wasn´t sure where this was set. Actually and unintuatively it is the location of the administrator that is set where the server might be.

Logon as administrator, go to her personal settings and select privacy. There set the location of the administrator.

Magically this is set as the location of the server and shown as such.

In fact the administrator might be in another location but that is how Nextcloud works.
