sudo sed -i -e 's/(^DocumentRoot\s*).*$/\1"/var/www/html/nextcloud"/' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Better sed. I removed the \s*

I think you can simplify it way more.

you don't need -e

don't use the / separator, use for instance #. So s#expression#replacement#. Then you don't have to escape your paths. And then you can put your variables straight in.

Don't think you need the sed script inside a quoted string either.

Maybe something like this:
sudo sed -i s#$^DocumentRoot$.*$#\1$WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER# /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
If you want quotes around the sed "instructions" use " so you get variable expansion, and not '.
But you don't need to quote a string as long as it doesn't contain spaces.

I'll try it in a bit on my local test instance.

I'm in the middle of migrating the CentOS 7 system to the Fedora 32 system that caused me to write this in the first place.

Could not make it execute without the quotes
But this works.

sudo sed -i 's#\(^DocumentRoot\).*$#\1 "'"$WWW_PATH"'/'"$APP_FOLDER"'"#' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Hmm, maybe you need some quotes anyway,

The sed thing is really s#regexp#\1 /www/whatever# (using `# as delimiter).
Where \1 tell sed to use the capture result of the first group which is "DocumentRoot".
Then a space and then the new path.

That is missing the " that need to be around the value. But did make me realize I did not need to do all the quoting around the / since I changed the delimeter.. habits

sudo sed -i 's#\(^DocumentRoot\).*$#\1 "'$WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER'"#' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

\"# also works to end it.

Starting to look pretty good I think.

I wonder about the ^DocumentRoot though. Apache don't need it to be the start of the line. There could be some whitespace first.

That is because there are 3 instances in the file. But only that one matters.

I understand I'm just thinking about whitespace. It's very common to have indentation in the conf files. Especially when you are putting it under virtualhost.

Then the regex wont match but works fine in apache.

This is not in a vhost. this is the main apache config file. Assumption is a single purpose server. anything else is advanced beyond this guide.

Yeah, makes sense.

sudo sed -i 's#(^DocumentRoot).*$#\1 "'$WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER'"#' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

I wonder if the capture group is actually worth it. You're just capturing the static "DocumentRoot".
~~It's much cleaner without it and less escaping and quoting.~~

sudo sed -i "s#^DocumentRoot.*$#DocumentRoot $WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER#" /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Never mind, not much of an improvement.

sudo sed -i "s#^DocumentRoot.*$#DocumentRoot $WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER#" /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

and you are still missing the point that the default file has double quotes around it.
required or not, if it is the default format, I will keep it.

Ah, it's the regexp.
OK, last chance:

sudo sed -i 's#^DocumentRoot.*$#DocumentRoot '$WWW_PATH/$APP_FOLDER# /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

That is the same as I have above, less the double quotes around the file path. Well and capture group

I just followed these through start to finish.

Just did this today, except I used Fedora 36 and latest Nextcloud instead of 19.0.4

wget https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/latest.tar.bz2

You can clear the phone warning by putting this in your /var/www/html/nextcloud/config/config.php file. Obviously change the Country Cody appropriately.

Still works on Fedora 37....
