@msff-amman-Itofficer I am sitting down to lunch and spinning up a new instance on Vultr to test.

Alex Sage

@JaredBusch I'll do the same right now

Alex Sage

@JaredBusch I get the same error 403 Forbidden

Looks like it is time to Q.A all the other articles at this site and start testing them as well !!!

I'm joking, I love this site/forum and the users that are interactive and supportive.

All the thanks to you Jared for the huge effort, and putting this guide/article that got me motivated to deploy and test, I'm certain you will find out what is wrong and it will something silly.

ok just completed and http://nctest.bundystl.com/nextcloud is forbidden but the http://nctest.bundystl.com serves.

log has this.

[Thu Mar 16 14:11:38.044903 2017] [autoindex:error] [pid 29289] [client 47.50.171.66:58578] AH01276: Cannot serve directory /var/www/html/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.html,index.php) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive

Testing shows the above is generated by browsing to the root (no /nextcloud) so we can ignore.

This is then the problem.

Let's look at the nextcloud.conf vhost file that was downloaded.

Let's look at the nextcloud.conf vhost file that was downloaded.

Yup, that is the problem.

ProxyPassMatch ^/nextcloud/(.*\.php(/.*)?)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000/usr/share/nextcloud/$1

Alias /nextcloud "/usr/share/nextcloud/"
<Directory "/usr/share/nextcloud">
  Options +FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
  Require all granted

  <IfModule mod_dav.c>
        Dav off
  </IfModule>

  SetEnv HOME /usr/share/nextcloud
  SetEnv HTTP_HOME /usr/share/nextcloud
</Directory>

<Directory "/usr/share/nextcloud/data/">
  # just in case if .htaccess gets disabled
    Require all denied
</Directory>

Let me go look at the system I installed a couple days before I made the guide and see what is in that one.

unrelated, but the redis memcache and locking stuff cannot be set where currently specifed. I'll fix that once this is resolved.

JaredBusch

they f***ing broke it..

but the official manual install guide (ubuntu example) specifically states to use the webroot still.

Opened an issue on github and posted on the NC forums. in the mean time, give me a few and I will get a valid file setup.

JaredBusch

This is the original nextcloud.conf file.
3 days ago he added some proxy info to it. that caused the service unavailable error. 1 day ago he changed the damned directory. that caused the permissions error.

wget -O /etc/httpd/conf.d/nextcloud.conf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/server-packages/18f3837752589739b53bc62705c45a54faddbb4a/centos/nextcloud.conf

@msff-amman-Itofficer instructions updated and pictures made with the initial web gui setup also.

JaredBusch

on a side note, these instructions work without ever disabling SELinux. Not even during install.

dafyre

Updated instructions work for me.

Shoudl have clarified, lol. I was using the updated instructions.

I tweaked the SSL config section as well and tested again.

@JaredBusch

Hehe no surprise there.

Hi,

I can confirm it is working, and it is alive ...

Thanks for the fix, and sorry for the delay.

however If i can nitpick, I am unable to enable memory cache and file locking.

0_1489785287758_2017-03-17 23_09_34-2008_R2_SP1_113 on localhost.localdomain.png

Look at the screenshots and I dont know really where to put those lines:

'memcache.locking' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'memcache.local' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'redis' => array(
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => 6379,
),

I tried putting them in 3 places, yet everytime it failed after saving and restarting the server, the webserver no longer boots up.

I know those are more of an optional stuff, but if you have quick fix or suggestion, I will be much in your debt.

@msff-amman-Itofficer it goes anywhere.
