Please read

Nextcloudpi - account currently not available?

Yes, that’s a current issue with RPI-Nexctcloudpi-setups. Please use following workaround: Activate SSH using the WebUI for user pi . With doing this, the user pi gets activated again (and you have to set a new password for user pi too). FYI:

Thank you, I’ll have a try later.
Thank you again.

I’m confused… what WebUI, and how does that work when I haven’t even set anything up?

seems like a FAQ thing, but I can’t seem to find the ncp FAQ

I was reminded that this issue is why I waited assuming a patch would be forthcoming to resolve this issue

so NCP 1.50.3 (showing as having the SSH patch), hardwired to my RPi4 keyboard attached, I can’t even boot it for the first time?
Does it have a “call home” like Microsoup?

The ncp docs are found at docs.nextcloudpi.com and are hosted within this forum.

That does not work… when trying to activate SSH for user PI it says “Password: chsh: PAM: Authentication failure”
