The message at the setup page:

Nextcloud AIO v8.1.0
You are running the latest channel. (Logs)

It seems like at least one container is currently restarting which means it is not able to start correctly.

To break out this endless loop, you can stop the containers below and investigate the issue by having a look at the container logs before starting them again.

There are no errors in the mastercontainer

Initial startup of Nextcloud All-in-One complete!
You should be able to open the Nextcloud AIO Interface now on port 8080 of this server!
E.g. https://internal.ip.of.this.server:8080
⚠️ Important: do always use an ip-address if you access this port and not a domain as HSTS might block access to it later!

If your server has port 80 and 8443 open and you point a domain to your server, you can get a valid certificate automatically by opening the Nextcloud AIO Interface via:
https://your-domain-that-points-to-this-server.tld:8443

As you can see, the nextcloud container keeps restarting

Reproduce:

Have I have tried:

Note:

  • I also verified with my ISP that I am not in CGNAT and all my ports are unblocked
  • I have logged into docker with a personal account as well, in hopes that would help.
  • I have tried installing Nextcloud AIO with the beta channel (and yes, I reset the installation instance following the guide).
  • If an admin/developer wants to sh to my server, I am more than willing to accommodate. As it is a fresh installation which I can physically access, I have no problems with it.

Hi KyTDK,

Here’s a breakdown of the Nextcloud AIO installation error you’re encountering, possible causes, and step-by-step troubleshooting:

Error Analysis

  • “nextcloud-aio-nextcloud keeps restarting”: This indicates a core Nextcloud component is crashing or failing to launch properly.
  • “WARNING: opening from cache [invalid URL removed]…”: There seems to be a network problem preventing the package manager from installing a dependency (likely Imagick).
  • HSTS-related warning in mastercontainer log: This usually suggests domain configuration issues in the setup phase.

Possible Causes

  1. Networking Issues: Incorrect DNS settings, firewall rules, or problems with accessing the Alpine Linux package repository.
  2. Resource Constraints: Insufficient memory or disk space for the AIO containers.
  3. Domain/HSTS Configuration: Mismatches between the URLs used during setup and in the configuration files.
  4. Component Conflicts: Other software on the host system interfering with the ports Nextcloud AIO utilizes.
  5. Docker/Container Issues: Problems with the Docker environment itself.

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Verify Network Connectivity:
  • ping dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org - Ensure you can reach the package repository.
  • Check firewall settings (consider temporarily disabling for testing).
  • Ensure correct DNS settings on your host system.
  1. Check Resources:
  • df -h - Verify sufficient disk space.
  • free -m - Check for available memory. Close other applications if needed.
  1. Address the HSTS Warning:
  • Use an IP address to access the AIO interface during the initial setup.
  • Once the installation succeeds, carefully set up your domain and valid certificates (Let’s Encrypt is often a good option).
  1. Reset and Rebuild the AIO:
  1. Examine Container Logs:
  • Run sudo docker logs nextcloud-aio-nextcloud to get more detailed logs from the Nextcloud container, which could reveal the specific reason for the restarts.
  1. Consider a Simplified Setup (if possible):
  • Try the installation without optional components like Collabora or Nextcloud Talk to isolate the issue. Add those later once the basic setup is working.

Additional Tips:

  • Documentation: Thoroughly review the official Nextcloud AIO documentation for the most up-to-date guidance.
  • Community Help: If these steps don’t resolve it, seek assistance on the Nextcloud forums (https://help.nextcloud.com) providing the full logs and installation details.
  • Clean Virtual Machine: If possible, try installing on a fresh virtual machine with a clean Ubuntu install to eliminate host system configuration conflicts.

Hello,

I have already done almost everything you have recommended, as stated in my forum post. As for the things I haven’t tried that you brought up, here is what I found what I ran that diagnostic strategy.

  • Pinging dl-cdn.alphinelinux.org works with no problem
  • My firewall was temporarily fully disabled during installation on both my router as a request to my ISP and the server.
  • There are no resource constraints that would cause this error. I have 24G of ram, 4TB SSD and an 8 core, 3.5GHz CPU.
  • Furthermore, I have reinstalled the server to a fresh installation, and only installed what was specified on the GitHub page, so if it is an error with dockers configuration, that’s a systematic problem with either docker or Nextcloud AIO.

You’re absolutely right! It seems we’ve covered standard areas like network connectivity, firewalls, and resource constraints. Since those aren’t the culprits, let’s dig deeper and focus on more targeted debugging:

Systematic Docker/Nextcloud AIO Issues:

Since you’ve meticulously followed the guide and encountered the issue on a fresh installation, we should consider potential bugs or configuration subtleties within either Docker itself or the Nextcloud AIO setup.

Here’s what we’ll do:

  1. Isolating Docker:
  • Test a Basic Container: Try running a simple container that doesn’t rely on external repositories (e.g., docker run -it --rm alpine echo "Hello from Alpine!"). This verifies if Docker itself functions as intended.
  • Docker Updates: Verify you’re running a recent, stable Docker version. Outdated versions sometimes cause compatibility problems. Consult Docker’s documentation for installation/upgrade instructions.
  1. Deep Dive into Nextcloud AIO:
  • GitHub Issues: Comb through the Nextcloud AIO Issues section on GitHub(Issues ¡ nextcloud/all-in-one ¡ GitHub). Search for keywords related to your error (“Imagick”, “restart loop”). You might find similar cases and potential solutions.
  • Recent Changes: Were any updates made to your base Ubuntu system, Docker, or any related packages just before this issue began? Conflicts might have been introduced.
  1. Log Deep Dive:
  • Timestamps: Carefully correlate timestamps in the logs from multiple containers (nextcloud-aio-nextcloud, nextcloud-aio-apache, nextcloud-aio-database). Are error spikes synchronized, suggesting a common trigger?
  • Search for Clues: Scour the logs for less obvious error messages that might precede the restart events. Search keywords like “error”, “failed”, “dependency”.

Additional Considerations:

  • OS Compatibility: While Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is generally well-supported, verify that there aren’t any known compatibility gotchas on the Nextcloud AIO project page. Sometimes minor distro versions can impact complex container setups.
  • Experimental Flags: Did you enable any experimental flags or non-standard options during the Nextcloud AIO installation? Temporarily revert to the most basic configuration to rule out issues introduced by custom options.

Next Steps:

  • Please provide the outputs of:
    • docker version
    • docker run -it --rm alpine echo "Hello from Alpine!"
  • Describe any recent changes to your system.
  • Share relevant snippets from the logs (with timestamps) where the errors and restart events are clearly visible.

Remember: The more specific and detailed information you share, the higher the chance of pinpointing the root cause of the issue.

Thanks LLM,

  • My docker version is 26.0.0 build 2ae903e
  • The output you requested is:

Hello from Alpine

  • The only recent change is full system reinstallation, then, I installed webmin, xdrp, nginx, and the Nextcloid AIO reverse proxy.

I just verified with my ISP that I am not in CGNAT and all my ports are unblocked

Updated original post with docker inspect results, screenshot and docker ps -a output

Found out it has something to do with me specifying what directory I use:
–env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR=“/mnt/sda1/nextcloud/data”
And from the following post:
(Solved) Nextcloud AIO error on initial setup, could use help please! - :information_source: Support / :package: Appliances (Docker, Snappy, VM, NCP, AIO) - Nextcloud community
There are certain permissions the new nextcloud data directory need, which are specified at nextcloud/all-in-one: :package: The official Nextcloud installation method. Provides easy deployment and maintenance with most features included in this one Nextcloud instance. (github.com).
However, I did run both:

  • sudo chown -R 33:0 /mnt/sda1/nextcloud/data
    and
  • sudo chmod -R 750 /mnt/sda1/nextcloud/data

but it didn’t work and the error remained. Getting closer to fixing it.

I finally solved it.

So, if you are installing Nextcloud AIO and specify where are want you data directory to be, by adding --env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR="/mnt/sda1/nextcloud/data" to your docker run for example, you MUST run both of the following commands for your entire disk you are storing the data directory on, not just the data directory, it has to be the ENTIRE DISK. For example:

  • sudo chown -R 33:0 /mnt/your_disk
    and
  • sudo chmod -R 750 /mnt/your_disk

If you don’t do this, your docker container will continuously restart show the following error

Connection to nextcloud-aio-database (172.18.0.5) 5432 port [tcp/postgresql] succeeded!
+ '[' -f /dev-dri-group-was-added ']'
++ find /dev -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name dri
+ '[' -n '' ']'
+ set +x
The initial Nextcloud installation failed.
Please reset AIO properly and try again. For further clues what went wrong, check the logs above.
See https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-properly-reset-the-instance`

I definitely took way to long to figure this out, but I hope anyone with similar issues can avoid spending several days trying to find a solution.
