I have a potentially dumb question, but honestly I've run out of ideas. I'm running a family nextcloud instance where me and my wife are managing our things, in our own boards. She noticed that cards that she put in her "Done" stack in a board of hers, are deleted after about a year. I have to emphasize:

  • She does not delete the cards (they hold important information, even though they are Done)
  • She does not even archive them

All she does is she moves them to a stack. First off, this is a problem, as she's losing information (I'm now restoring old database backups to get back old Deck cards, not a fun activity in itself). But second, this bugs the hell out of me: is there any functionality that would do this in Nextcloud? Some hidden setting? I'm even thinking possible user error, but she's quite tech savvy and I believe her when she says she does not do this knowingly...

Also important to highlight that I have cards from 2 years ago in my boards that are just fine, no deletion, nothing. And nothing in the logs, althgough I don't even know what I'm looking for, because we aren't sure when the deletion happened.

Any idea/pointer would be highly appreciated.

I want to install Nextcloud on Docker, and Apache on apt. I just feel that it will make it easier to set up my certificates using Cloudflare, and make quick configuration changes. It also helps because I have many other docker containers running at the same time. (each other container will have their own certificate file, too). I don't like the 'all in one' containers, I'd prefer to just set everything up myself so I know exactly how works.

Or are there any other ways of setting it up? Apart from snap because I hate proprietary software because the whole reason I'm doing this is to get away from it.

Hi. I wanted to fully sync a document folder on my android tablet, so I can edit some documents on it on the go, just like I do on the desktop, but I dont really understand how to do it with the android app.

Like, I remember google drive had an option to make a folder available offline and give me the option to navigate said documents.

I dont like editing documents directly from the nextcloud app because in my experience is slow, so I just like using Text editing apps and sometimes I dont have internet, so would be good to sync them after I get a WiFi connection again.

Please help. Thanks.

Hello!

so i just set up a nextcloud instance via docker-compose on one of my servers.

But i already have multiple webservers on my network that have to be accessible from outside. Therefore i set up a nginx reverse proxy on one of my other servers, published it's ports and connect all the other services via that.

Now that docker nextcloud i installed doesn't go smooth with it. It's using the dockerhub.io image and doesn't come with any kind of proxy config.

And i don't know how to proceed anymore tbh...

The actual problem is as follows: I have the admin account that works perfectly fine. I can access everything and every menu from my domain name; let's say it's https://domain.randomlegend.com/

I then created a regular user account for me to actually use. This user account can login and can access the dashboard. It cannot access the files or the settings. If i try, i get this error:

I can find the following error in the nextcloud.log:

[...] ,"level":3, "time" :"2023-06-27T18:43:20+00:00", "remoteAddr" :"xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "user": "randomlegend", "app" :"no app in context", "method":"POST", "url":"/login", "message": "Cannot assign requested address", "userAgent [...]

This is the part in the config.php i did regarding the proxy stuff.

overwritehost and overwrite.cli.url have the same address in them but the cli.url has https:// infront of it.

I also get this error in the overview of nextcloud...

If i now create another new user, that user can't even log in...immediately get's the "Internal Server Error"


Soooo....any idea on why the regular user get's errors and the admin account does not? Also, what did i forget to config?

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks


Fixed

I want to sync my podcast activity using Flodder (https://github.com/thrillfall/nextcloud-gpodder/). There is a nextcloud app for this: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/gpoddersync

I have never used nextcloud before, so I am not sure how to install an app. I created a nextcloud account that was pointing me to the a server with the address https://the/ good.cloud. With my credentials and this server address, I can log in to this nextcloud instance via the nextcloud android app. I don't see any options to install apps there though.

Is it possible to install apps in nextcloud when you are not self hosting? If so, how do I do that?

I've been thinking about buying an AirTag to put on my cat's collar, I have an iOS device, so I could track the AirTag from there, but I'd like to be able to do that and keep a history from Nextcloud PhoneTrack app, that would be great. Anyone has any idea if this can be done? How to do it? Any alternatives?

I have a subscription of Family and Friends on the site tab.digital. This would allow me to add apps to my nextcloud. One of the apps I have been most excited about has been the News app, which can administrate open subscription feeds like RSS. However, I have a couple issues.

First of all, I've been notified that the app is unstable on my Family and Friends subscription from a dialogue box. I don't know if that is due to me having the wrong subscription or whether it has to do with the app itself being unstable.

So far I've ignored that warning, because I can risk the service failing. I'll just have to contact the provider to reset in that case.

I have sent an email to the provider, but I expect an response on monday so It's kind of long to wait.

Does anybody have any experience with News app on Nextcloud or with tab.digital?

"It is our mission to put you back in control over your data. While not everybody can run their own Nextcloud server, hundreds of thousands of people do. Making it easier for them to keep their data safe is important. If you are one of them, Nextcloud Backup is for you!

With Nextcloud Backup, you can find a friend or family member who has their own Nextcloud server and ask them to create a user account for you. Then, you can setup Backup to regularly store compressed, encrypted backups of your data on their Nextcloud server! If something goes wrong, you can restore your Nextcloud, or even bring back individual files and folders. Of course, it might make sense to, in exchange, create an account for them on your server to store their backups!

What makes Nextcloud Backup different from other backup solutions? Its ease of use! If you are using a backup technology that you are comfortable with, keep using it. Nextcloud Backup is for those users who have found it difficult and time consuming to setup another backup solution."
