@scottalanmiller It took me 40 minutes from start to finish. I even added a 200GB lvm2. All done via cockpit. Nice job!
Awesome, thanks for testing it out. That's amazing.
I just did the Vultr based build using it as well, worked perfectly and only took maybe 15 minutes, I'd guess. But Vultr has updates already applied and you don't need to log in or do anything, so it is that much faster.
Now I just need to make the switch from an ubuntu instance to fedora at work and we will be all set.
NextCloud works fine on Ubuntu, too. But I certainly prefer it on Fedora. Especially with what a good job Fedora does with things like keeping PHP up to date.
I only used it because at the time it was the only guide that worked on the first shot.

For SSL: how do we add LE to the mix or did I miss that part?

@scottalanmiller any ideas how to change the maximum upload size from the web? Web interface says "missing permissions to edit from here"

I was wondering that myself. I read the script before I ran it and I didn't see anything about the configuration commands.

Right now that’s done after.

Interesting, I am presented a certificate that I did not setup.

The pieces are there. It’s a stock Apache vhost at that point.

Sure. But not one from LE. It’s the generic self signed one.

Send me the error. I’ll get it scripted.

It's not some much of an error its a greyed out box in settings, under the file handling.

If I remember correctly it has something to do with SELinux preventing you from changing that. It also can affect upgrading Nextcloud via web updater.

No, SELinux should not affect upgrading normally.

Okay
This is something that is really not clear in the documentation. Because I do not have people using the web interface much it is not something I have rmemebered to resolve.
It is annoying as fuck.

Running this as we speak...looking good, will report back.

Has there been some thread on a lesser site with people complaining NC is too hard to set up?

In all fairness, NC is actually quite difficult compared to something like, say, WordPress. NC's own docs are often outdated or unclear and expect many pieces to be done by you without clear guidance. NC isn't super hard, but getting it right the first time can be. Especially as NC does a very poor job of testing and clarifying which operating systems it is currently working best against.
So these guides really are needed, making a clear, solid starting point to getting NC running in a reliable way is very important.

Works great!

Would it make more sense for them to invest in Flatpak and/or Snap instead then we wouldn't have to deal with their unclear or outdated guides? But then again, their snap version is outdated.
What's the latest version is 12.0.4 even though 12.0.5 is the latest version of 12? And 13 is now released.

It might, although I think that those formats are very limited as they package everything and in the real world, people need a lot of options for something like Nextcloud. Snap is better for installing your desktop apps that are just optionless and simple. For an enterprise server, I don't think that it makes sense.
