Pls help a noob. I’m trying to install nextcloud on a Hetzner VPS running Ubuntu 19.04 with an existing nginx installation. I have followed the guide here and all has gone well until I try to access my server using at ‘myserver.co.uk/nextcloud’ and I just get a 404 screen.
nginx is working for other applications setup in the config file as other locations, it’s just this one.
My install directory is ‘/usr/share/nginx/nextcloud’ which is set to user & group ‘www-data’. My nginx config looks like the below and is in the location: ‘/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/reverse’ I’d really appreciate any help you can give o help me access and start setting up this application which seems to be one of the most used self-hosted apps!
When I look at the nginx log I see the error:
2019/10/29 16:21:23 [error] 2374#2374: *75 open() "/usr/share/nginx/nexcloud/404.html" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 162.158.154.214, server: , request: "GET /nextcloud HTTP/1.1",$
Really, really appreciate any help… I’ve been trying to solve ot for the last few days myself. But have realised I now need help.
