Uprading to Owncloud 10
Hi, I have the Netgear ReadyNAS 102 with firmware 6.8. I had previosly installed owncloud from RNXtra (owncloud_9.1.3-rnx1_all.deb). It has some updates pending, I tired to run them and some error occurred and I couldnt access more to the webinterface.I see the files are still there. but i get the error: "The requested URL /owncloud/ was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.34 (Debian) Server at 192.168.0.101 Port 80:" I tried to install the new owncloud 10.0.2 from RNextra, It requires the mysql instalation. I run it and it seemed to succed, there is no erorr message but there is no app icon in the app section of the interface either, so i continued with the owncloud file but it didnt work. I tried also the Nextcloud and got the sampe problem. and now there are no apps icon at all in the admin interface. Any help how to fix it? maye i need to delete something before trying the instalation? strangely it doesnt generate any log in install_debpkg.log. ProdigySolvedOwnCloud external storage -- problem and work-around
Running OS 6.1.1 on ReadyNAS Pro2 with OwnCloud app owncloud_9.1.3-rnx2_all.deb from RNXtras. I decided I wanted to mount a directory on another NAS as an external source, I enabled the External Sources module in OwnCloud and set everything up for SMB access to the other NAS. Got a "Green Light" on the settings and thought all was OK, but it failed to show any files when I accessed the directory. There was a horribly long error message in the log that basically came down to "Can't access external share". Googling told me that I might need php5-libsmbclient_0.7.0-10.2_amd64.deb, so i installed that. Still no-go. So I tried FTP. Didn't even get the green light on that. Yes the user name I was using has both SMB and FTP access, both verified outside of OwnCloud. I remember seeing where the ReadyNAS does not support Active Mode FTP, and figured that could be the problem. But I can't find a solution to use SMB or a good reason why it won't work. The php5-libsmbclient (or it's equivalent for other distros) seemed to be the solution for everyone with non-NAS installations. It may have something to do with the somewhat non-traditional install that keeps OwnCloud from filling the system partition. But, I did find a work-around. I created a symbolic link in /mnt and added an NFS mount of the link in fstab so it mounts at boot. Then I created the external storage link in OwnCloud using "Local" mode to that symlink. Voila, it worked! I just wanted it to be read-only, so used the ro option in the NFS mount and admin credentials in OwnCloud, so I don't know what permissions might be needed if you want it read/write. One time I rebooted and the directory was empty. I suspect that the other NAS was in spin-down mode at the time and something timed out. It would be nice if it all worked as it should directly from the OwnCloud GUI, but this is a work-around others can try if they need it until somebody figures out how to fix the problem with external SMB storage.Owncloud Appache Configuration
My apache configuration is a bit broken now. fortunately the admin page works well. I installed the owncloud add-on and it was working perfectly on the local host. Then I wanted to have access to it from public internet. Initially I set up a DDNS in no-ip.com then I just change the etc/apache2/sites-available/default file where I added the virtualhost for ports 80 and 443, I am not sure this was the file I had to edit, i also set-up the port forwarding in the router. After this I could access the owncloud from my local network and from internet through the no-ip domain. Then I wanted to create the SSL certificate and I tried using the cerbot, but it failed in different ways. One of the error was that the port 443 was being used, then I kill apache by console but still the error was there. The problem was that after that I couldn’t start apache, was getting some code error. I just did a reboot to the whole NAS and apache started but the owncloud connection was broken. ThenI tried local.ip/owncloud I get “The requested URL /owncloud/ was not found on this server.” But when I tried my local.ip I get to the readynas admin site as expected and the owncloud is up and running. I brought back the original default etc/apache2/sites-available/default but it did'nt work. I found out that owncloud is still accessible using http://local.ip/owncloud/index.php/login and also https. I tried different things found in the apache forums and owncloud forums, but somehow the file system is different and they hace other files and other configuration files. then i think i was starting to get the things worse and I decided to stop and ask for help. Right now the things are like this: http://local.ip/owncloud goes to http://local.ip/owncloud/index.php/login and works well https://local.ip/owncloud shows text that starts with "* author Lukas Reschke <lukas@statuscode.ch> * author Morris..... " certificate not working http://no-ip.domain/owncloud works well https://no-ip.domain/owncloud works well, certificate not working I also tried to use my owndomain that I have in godaddy but i couldnt make it connect to the no-ip domain. I created a masked forwarding but I dont know why it doesnt reach. I just don’t know how to fix the local.ip and how to add ssl cerfiticates without messing up the rest, should i add virtualhosts for the no-ip domain and the godaddy domain? I have spent some days on it, but cleary im still beginner to this things. thanks a lot for any help! /OliverAnyone tried Let's Encrypt / Cerbot on the ReadyNAS (esp for Owncloud)?
I run OwnCloud on one NAS as a way of exchanging files with a small group. Some have a real problem with the lack of a "proper" SSL certificate. They are too virus paranoid to tell their browser to ignore that for a site the know is safe. I do have a registered domain name, so, I'm looking at getting a certificate for it from a certificate authority. Let's Encrypt, via the Cerbot Linux client looks like an interesting (most interestingly, free) option. Has anybody tried it on a ReadyNAS?NFS access to OwnCloud data folders?
Is there a way to enable NFS access to the Owncloud data folder with a login other than admin or root? The owner:group is set to guest:guest, but the admin UI (this used to be called Frontview, does it have a name in OS6?) does not know of group "guest", so I can't add myself to that group using it. If I add myself to the file permissions, OwnCloud refuses to present a login screen, protesting: Data directory (/apps/owncloud/web/data) is readable by other users Please change the permissions to 0770 so that the directory cannot be listed by other users. Is it safe to add myself to secondary group guest via SSH with usermod -a -G? ReadyNAS group members don't seem to be listed in /etc/groups, so I'm unsure if that is safe and/or effective and I thought I'd see if anyone knows before I just go and try it. Maybe this is for it's own protection because adding files without going through OwnCloud itself will mess with the database.
ownCloud 8.1.2 (rnxtras) fresh install failing
Did anyone manage to install ownCloud above version 8.1 on ReadyNAS R6? I'm getting some errors from the start. Owncloud was working well here until up to 8.0.X. So I decided to do a fresh install of 8.1.2 (rnxtras), which gave me the following errors: root@readyNAS:/data/OwnCloud# more owncloud.log {"reqId":"lC6uPPrO6EUF\/pAvHmWq","remoteAddr":"192.168.11.134","app":"PHP","message":"Undefined offset: 0 at \/apps\/owncloud\/web\/lib\/private\/appframework\/http\/request.php#685 ","level":3,"time":"2015-09-04T18:29:04+00:00"} {"reqId":"lC6uPPrO6EUF\/pAvHmWq","remoteAddr":"192.168.11.134","app":"PHP","message":"fopen(\/apps\/owncloud\/web\/config\/config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or direct ory at \/apps\/owncloud\/web\/lib\/private\/config.php#191","level":3,"time":"2015-09-04T18:29:05+00:00"} {"reqId":"6zhmZ7g2DtsFAQP2rij1","remoteAddr":"192.168.11.134","app":"PHP","message":"Undefined offset: 0 at \/apps\/owncloud\/web\/lib\/private\/appframework\/http\/request.php#685" ,"level":3,"time":"2015-09-04T18:31:17+00:00"} It seems the config.php file was not writable. Apart from the instanceid, the config file is empty. I guess this is triggering the other error about undefined offset at request.php#685, as this line is about the trusted host that needs to be defined in the config file. After making the config writable, and adding the necessary config, I'm stll getting a blank page. The database isn't created, and the config file seems too empty to be complete. I know that since Owncloud 8.1, they became much stricter regarding SSL, but my SSL certificate is working fine, as it was before. I'm getting the following errors in the browser: Firefox: Secure Connection Failed Chromium: No Data Received, ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE I'm wondering if anyone managed to install the owncloud app properly, so I can rule out the possibilty that the problem lies with the ReadyNAS.7.4KViews0likes13Commentsfile sharing outside of home network with owncloud
Hi all, I've spent half the day trying to figure this out, so please be kind. I have a ReadyNAS Ultra 4+ with 4.2.27 firmware running PHP 5.something and ownCloud 8.1, both from Whocares. My goal is to be able to selectively and securely share files/folders over the internet with others who do not use ownCloud. So I'm stuck since I don't know how to actually accomplish this last part as the server is on my home network, so I don't just have a web link I can send for sharing. Is there some kind of online service I need to subscribe to that will be the jump between my home network and the outside. I get the impression that's how ReadyCloud works. I could have sworn I saw something about this somewhere, but my head is spinning at this point. I'm not an idiot, but I'm not a web developer either. TIA.
