Nextcloud

Would it be reasonable to expect a Raspberry Pi 4 to run Nextcloud and manage a photo backup of +100 Gb?

The Raspberry Pi is from 2020, running Raspbian, and it was used as an intervalometer with the help of gphoto2 (meaning no great efforts were demanded from it).

The pictures are on two external hard drives

*1Tb WesternDigital SATA (bought second hand, but "like new" according to the sales guy.

*320Gb WesternDigital SATA (inherited from an AcerOne laptop once I realized it could not even handle lubuntu)

My very limited knowledge on the subject tells me I need to:

*Get rid of Raspbian and install Raspberry Pi OS

*Install Nextcloud (and upgrade an existing account)

*Upload +100 Gb

Would the aforementioned steps allow me to access the files on Fedora/Kubuntu (two separate hard drives on a desktop) and openSUSUE (on a laptop)?

I’m also testing a filen.io account and a sync.com account. All three services (NextCloud, Filen, and Sync) work as I expect on an Ipad.

Filen and Nextcloud have Linux applications, and both have been working without problems on test backups of 100 pictures.

Sync is CANADIAN but not Linux friendly (I tried Wine, didn’t work, gave up)… I’m accessing a free account via Firefox only, so I’m not counting on them for this journey.

So, long story short, I want to back up my files (mostly pictures/scans and some pfd documents) on someone else's computer and locally.

Now the question. Can anyone recommend a guide to achieve what I want?

I’m a cook by trade without any technical (software/hardware) training who has been using Linux (openSUSE, Ubuntu, Arch, Mint) since 2012. Please forgive any mistakes on terminology.

I included a picture of my intervalo-Frankenstein-meter from 2020.

Thank You.

Please @nextcloud@mastodon.xyz could you allow your #android app to open custom links? I was given access to a #nextcloud instance, but when somebody shares links to files on nextcloud, it opens the browser and I have to search for my login details every single time. Kinda defeats the purpose of having an app + it makes me want to just share the files publicly - I know others do too.

I'm wondering if there is a way for me to sync my SMS messages with Nextcloud and not share them with third party apps. I currently use an app that allows me to block numbers and helps me filter spam but I'm sure they have a copy of all my messages which I don't like.

Any suggestions?

I have a Nextcloud v24.xx install on shared hosting, good host that would probably help, but I want to learn. I hve looked through the Nextcloud site and my OS/browsers are deemed too old. I can run MX KDE off a stick but not for long because it runs the fans hard on my old MBP (2009).

I've had an issue with the internal GUI updater getting stuck on Step 3 for a long time. There was a file to remove so I could try again, which I did back then in the v25 days, but it kept stopping at Step 3, and I've been ill, so I let it go.

Now I look and NC is on v28? And I now have a little time. I have SSH access and the cPanel terminal available, and when Softalicious did the install I chose the db name and can find that info and have PHP MyAdmin access.

But I am not certain about some things, one being that I see advice out there to update one version at a time, which seems like it'll be a long slog if it can be done at all, since I'm on 24.xx now.

Softalicious, BTW, also could not do the update back then and then at a certain point told me it was too many versions behind instead of just failing with no explication.

I'd either like to update in one swoop, or save my data/db and do a new install and import my data from a backup and point it to the db. I'm assuming there were database changes along the way and a 24.x db might not import.

Suggestions welcomed, anything I learn I'll post if helpful.

I need to embed the documents, .odp and .odt into my WordPress/Elementor site.

How do I pull this off? IFrames don't seem to work

Whenever I open nautilus I have to mount the nextcloud folder first. Is there a way to auto mount the folder?

Adding it to fstab?

Hey guys, I am pretty new to nextcloud.

Right now I am look for some good plugins to sync into multiple devices, as I take a lot of notes and do a lot of team projects.

For now the plugins I am using -

• Gpodder Sync
• Nextcloud office

Okay i have a strange problem. Im running a nextcloud instance with linuxserver.io docker. And every night at 03:00 AM i get 100% load. And it disapears when i restart the docker.

I have entered docker shell when the high loads occurs and i see that the process is php /app/www/public/cron.php that is causing the high load.

Nothing i the logs shows errors and i have checked all settings. How can i continue the search of what making the high load?

I cant trigger the high load from anything else execpt waiting until 03:00 AM.

He guys,

after upgrading to Nextcloud 27 I noticed some errors in Security & setup warnings. I fixed all of them, but don't know what to do with this one. I've read documentation, but still don't know what to do. How to fix this or should I just ignore it?

I'm running lsio docker container, Nextcloud version 27.1.4

Might be of some interest to those who moved away from ownCloud to Nextcloud.

Hi everyone.

I have recently gone on a bit of an update spree and while doing that figured out I didn't have my vhost correctly setup to use the .htaccess files with "AllowOverride All"

However, setting that option completely broke my installtion, and I figured the culprit was an .htaccess file located in /nextcloud/apps.

I have the .htaccess file in /nextcloud, and AllowOverride All set in my virtual host for apache.

I also downloaded the latest release as a zip and checked on github, but I can't find any reference to an .htaccess file in /nextcloud/apps there, so I'm wondering if this is a remnant from a previous version that I just found now due to my misconfiguration of AllowOverride.

Any hints are appreciated.

Edit for completeness: it's version 27.1.3

I'm planning to set up Nextcloud server for personal use but I never did anything similar so I have 2 questions:

1. Is there a way to turn on server remotely? I don't want to have it turned on all the time because I don't need that and I want to reduce power usage.
2. Can I access my Nextcloud from anywhere or do I need to be connected to the same wi-fi or something similar to that?

These are probably trivial questions but again I don't have any experience with stuff like this.

I have a particular folder at particular location in android which i want to keep permanently synchronised (bidirectional) to nextcloud folder. How can i do that, I dont want to change the location of local folder?
