Are you using a Self Signed Certificate? I also followed this instructions [Remove /index.php/ from the url](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/remove-index-php-from-the-url/2611/6) until I realized I was using the SSL website so I just add the code to the apache virtual host, in my case nextcloud-ssl.conf

config.php file:

\<?php $CONFIG = array ( 'htaccess.RewriteBase' =\> '/', Apache for both virtual hosts: Options +FollowSymlinks AllowOverride All Dav off SetEnv HOME /var/www/nextcloud SetEnv HTTP\_HOME /var/www/nexcloud Satisfy Any
