Config php, mysql & phpmyadmin for nextcloud
Hi people, given all the recent app problems from the past year and owncloud being broken on readynas. I wanted to have some better solution. I am now trying to get nextcloud(owncloud fork) to w...
I have searched some more and came up with a rather brilliant idea.
Instead of doing everything manually i can use an existing app's environement to set up nextcloud.
if you grab the 9.1.0 version package of owncloud from https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ie9pwk1wut72ias/p6_X2QeOIC
and install it. you have everything needed to run owncloud and nextcloud.
Just set up owncloud with password and everything.
Then you have this nice migration guide i have found here https://nextcloud.com/migration/
just follow these steps:
The steps are as follows:
- 1. Enable Maintenance Mode with the command line tool
- 2. Backup existing configuration and database(just copy the config folder)
- 3. Delete the ownCloud code and extract the Nextcloud code
- 4. Copy back the configuration file
- 5. Start the upgrade process
- 6. Disable Maintenance Mode
if you dont feel familiar with step 1. you can do the same with this:
You may also put your server into this mode by editing config/config.php.
Change"maintenance" => false to "maintenance" => true
afterwards, reverse it in step 6.
owncloud 9.1.0 is seamless compatible with nextcloud 10.0.3 wich you can find here:
https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/nextcloud-10.0.3.zip
After you put back the config file in step 4. nextcloud automatically detects the owncloud settings and proposes a upgrade process. just click the button and let it do its thing. voila.
nextcloud on readynas
I'm not saying your post seems like a shameless plug to try and get people install an app, I'm just sayin... I don't care if it is one way or the other, but your directions for installing the app are needlessly complicated. The ReadyNAS apps already give you the ability to set up a LAMP environment. Installing PHP and MySQL through the apps gives you version of both tools that will run the majority of applications. Any applications that won't run on this setup would require Apache 2.4. After installing both the backend language and the database, all you have to do is manually install for Debian Jessy, which is much simpler than what you just described.
Newsat11, you feel that the above instructions are too complicated. Would you please post your less complicated instructions to have a fully working installation of NextCloud? If you could please make them detailed enough for a beginner with ReadyNas to follow, I would (and I'm sure others) would really appreciate it. I am sincerely looking for the easiest way to install NextCloud and since you are more experienced I hope you can help. Thank you in advance for taking the time to post......
