@wrx7m Just tried. No issues.
[root@jrd-nc ~]# chown apache:apache /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess [root@jrd-nc ~]# ls -la /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess -rw-r--r--. 1 apache apache 3793 Apr 28 21:54 /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess [root@jrd-nc ~]# chown root:apache /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess [root@jrd-nc ~]# ls -la /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess -rw-r--r--. 1 root apache 3793 Apr 28 21:54 /var/www/html/nextcloud/.htaccess [root@jrd-nc ~]# -
@JaredBusch Figured it out. Your commands had a typo and the file name is missing a "c". htacess

/sigh... Fixed.

@JaredBusch When you are looking at all this text, it can make your eyes bleed after awhile
I can't believe how many times I looked at it and started over. Well, at least I have learned several things I wouldn't have without that typo 
-
Thanks @JaredBusch the step-by-step guide worked, I had no problems from start to finish.
I'd like to go back & clean up the disk I used for the data portion of Nextcloud. -
Have anyone noticed tar package is not installed when using Fedora 25 minimal?

Is there a reason you add the html directory to the nextcloud installation? All their docs show /var/www/nextcloud.

That's not where anything should be deployed. That's not the CentOS or the Fedora directory for that. It's not "wrong" to switch directories, but it is working against the OS which has a spot set up for it and expected already.

Sorry... Which one is not correct?

/var/www/html is the appropriate top level directory for web applications on the RH family of OSes. Jared's choice of location is what we would generally accept as correct. An application maker should not choose an alternative location to the standards for the OS in question.
-
@scottalanmiller - Thanks. That is exactly the answer I was looking for. I wonder why Nextcloud chose to do it at the root of www.
Edit - Unless maybe it was developed for non-RH family flavors?

Yes, or they wanted a generic option. It's fine to have a generic "in case you don't have anything else" location.

Working through this with JB this morning.
Found some tweaks needed.
No longer run
#get a script to set secure folder permissions wget -O ~/secure_folders_rhel.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sorvani/scripts/master/Nextcloud/secure_folders_rhel.sh #make the script executable chmod +x ~/secure_folders_rhel.sh #run the script ~/secure_folders_rhel.shRunning that script will break the updater according to JB.
And instead, run this
chown apache:apache -R /var/www/html/nextcloud -
@dashrender first post already updated while you were typing that most likely.

Anyone wondering - Vultr does not have the Netinstall ISO in their library. The Fedora 25 they do have, does not have an minimal install option.
Instead you see this. I, like JB choose to add the Guest Agent.

Any reason you are using the ISOs instead of their standard Fedora 25 or 26 images?

With CentOS at least, we have proven in the past that their images are not minimal installs, Scott.
Additionally the last CentOS image I used from them had SELinux permanently disabled.
Beyond all of that, I will never, ever, use an image in production that I do not know for 100% certain what it is including.

I asked Vultr why they do this and they told me it makes it easier for their customers. Bad reasoning IMO.

I believe their standard is with cockpit installed and selinux is disabled.
