Hello,
this is my first post, so I hope to be in the right section. I am running the latest Nextcloud 20 appliance from https://www.hanssonit.se/nextcloud-vm/ on a proxmox host. I am running it exclusively in a LAN so I am using a self-signed SSL certificate (let’s encrypt needs a FQDN).
I have no problem to access my Nextcloud via Firefox or the Android application but I can’t get Nautilus to mount the directory under Ubuntu 18.04. I see the GNOME “online accounts” connects successfully (after accepting to ignore the self-signed certificate warning) but trying to mount the online directory always lead to the errors “HTTP Error: Unacceptable TLS certificate” or “HTTP Error: Found” via the GUI.
I read the documentation at https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/user_manual/files/access_webdav.html and tried to mount manually to better understand what is happening but I get the same problem:
gio mount davs://<ip>/nextcloud/remote.php/dav/files/<username>/
returns the error:
HTTP Error: Unacceptable TLS certificate
and
mount -t davfs https://<ip>/nextcloud/remote.php/dav/files/<username>/ <mount_point>
returns the error:
/sbin/mount.davfs: Mounting failed.
302 Found
While it works perfectly if I just strip the “s” from the commands (like gio mount dav://<ip>/nextcloud/remote.php/dav/files/<username>/
or mount -t davfs http://<ip>/nextcloud/remote.php/dav/files/<username>/ <mount_point>
)
Do you know how to mount the directory with SSL? I guess this is more a GNOME / Ubuntu problem but I thought many people would have the same problem here. I know there is a linux client for Nextcloud but I would like the use a pure webdav solution
Thanks for any help!
