hi @Mystic welcome to the community 🤝

it’s hard to say if you passed the required parameters in your .env file… but in general running Nextcloud behind reverse proxy and non-webroot requires additional configurations. Please review

- [101: reverse proxy](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/101-reverse-proxy/194840)
- [overwritewebroot](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_server/config_sample_php_parameters.html#overwritewebroot)
- [reverse proxy](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/admin_manual/configuration_server/reverse_proxy_configuration.html)

Docker image accepts ENV variables to setup above configurations

- [Docker community image/reverse proxy](https://github.com/nextcloud/docker?tab=readme-ov-file#using-the-image-behind-a-reverse-proxy-and-specifying-the-server-host-and-protocol)

good search term in the forum are #reverseproxy #nginx webroot.

Starting new installation from scratch is maybe not easy please review this advanced installation examples:
