Wow, thanks for the heads up! I use Nextcloud AIO and backups take VERY long. I need to check about those logs!
Don't know if I'm just lucky or what, but it's been working really well for me and takes good care of itself for the most part. I'm a little shocked seeing so many complaints in this thread because elsewhere on the Internet that's the go-to method.
It can be fidgety, especially if you stray from the main instructions, generally I do think it's okay, but also updates break it a bit every now and again.
Yeah, anything that involves a bunch of ~~complicated relationship interaction between~~ PHP scripts I just don't mess with too much.
Right now I'm hosting it through Docker on top of OpenMediaVault which is hosted on Proxmox.
If an update absolutely borks NextCloud and for some reason its BorgBackup function doesn't work, I can at least hope to count on the ProxMox snapshot of the whole volume!
And besides that, I don't actually store anything essential in NextCloud's volume itself. It's all an external mount that I could browse with any file explorer, so worst case, I'd just lose a lot of convenience. :p
