Transfering bulk files to NextCloud user directory via Unraid share on LAN?

Hi,

I’ve just transfered almost 1TB worth of photos and documents to user folders in an Unraid 7.0.0 share which the Nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer is installed on.

The problem is, now that I’ve done that I cannot see any of the photos or documents in Nextcloud. I suspect I need to change permissions of the documents and also run something to tell Nextcloud to update its self for the sync process.

I can’t quite figure out how to do this because all of the documentation doesn’t quite fit how my Nextcloud has been set up. This setup is using CloudFlare for DNS on 11000.

I can’t see that the www-data user and group exists anywhere…
Also, nextcloud-aio-nextcloud-data does not exist, rather my users are in the Unraid share.

Hi Maximilian118,

That’s quite a few photos!

How do you think we can figure it out without access to your server, or information from you?

When you started writing your story, there was a helpful text in the edit window, with a default template that asks you for details of your setup.

In general, you’d be looking to log in via SSH and run occ files:scan, which makes Nextcloud aware of your newly added photos.

Thanks. Using this command in the Unraid terminal fixed the issue:
docker exec -u 33 -it nextcloud-aio-nextcloud php /var/www/html/occ files:scan —all
