 Posted: Thu Jul 07, 2016 2:55 am Post subject: Nextcloud and Lighttpd |
 |
|
I have recently switched from Owncloud to Nextcloud. The following are my installation steps for Nextcloud and Lighttpd.
Reference URL's
https://docs.nextcloud.org/server/9/admin_manual/contents.html
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Owncloud
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Lighttpd
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PHP
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Webapp-config
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1028396.html (my previous Owncloud and Lighttpd installation)
Nextcloud current version = 9.0.51
1. Add the following to package.accept_keywords:
| Code: | app-admin/webapp-config ~amd64
dev-lang/php ~amd64
www-servers/lighttpd ~amd64
www-apps/nextcloud ~amd64 |
2. Install webapp-config
A. | Code: | | emerge -av webapp-config |
B. Modify /etc/vhosts/webapp-config
from
| Code: | | vhost_server="apache" |
to
| Code: | | vhost_server="lighttpd" |
3. Install webserver lighttpd (use -php)
| Code: | | emerge -av www-servers/lighttpd |
4. Install Nextcloud server
A. Modify package.use
| Code: | dev-lang/php fpm sqlite zip pdo xmlreader gd curl xmlwriter
app-eselect/eselect-php fpm |
B. Install Nextcloud
| Code: | | emerge -av www-apps/nextcloud |
5. Modify /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
Uncomment the following
| Code: | server.document-root = var.basedir + "/htdocs"
server.errorlog = var.logdir + "/error.log"
accesslog.filename = var.logdir + "/access.log"
include "mod_fastcgi.conf" |
6. Modify /etc/lighttpd/mod_fastcgi.conf
Replace the existing code with the following:
| Code: | server.modules += ("mod_fastcgi")
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" =>
( "localhost" =>
(
"host" => "127.0.0.1",
"port" => "9000"
)
)
) |
7. Modify /etc/php/fpm-php7.0/php.fpm.conf
A. Uncomment
| Code: | | error_log = /var/log/php-fpm.log |
B. Add the following
| Code: | user = clouddata
group = clouddata
env[HOSTNAME] = $HOSTNAME
env[PATH] = /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/var/www/localhost/htdocs:
env[TMP] = /tmp |
8. Test lighttpd.conf
| Code: | | lighttpd-angel -t -f /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf |
Should see something similar:
| Code: | Syntax OK
lighttpd-angel.c.139: child (pid=26771) exited normally with exitcode: 0 |
9. Set the timezone
Add the following to /etc/php/fpm-php7.0/php.ini
| Code: | | date.timezone = America/New_York |
10. Create cloud data group/user
| Code: | | groupadd -g 988 clouddata && useradd -g clouddata clouddata |
11. Change ownership to lighttpd ***OPTIONAL***
| Code: | | chown -R lighttpd:lighttpd /var/www/localhost/ |
12. Change ownership to nextcloud (Nextcloud script)
Run nextcloud.sh
13. Modify group
Add lighttpd to clouddata
| Code: | | clouddata:x:988:lighttpd |
14. Start lighttpd & php-fpm
| Code: | | rc-update add lighttpd default && rc-update add php-fpm default && /etc/init.d/php-fpm start && /etc/init.d/lighttpd start |
15. Test lighttpd in browser
A. The following will show a list of variables (see below for code)
| Code: | | http://localhost/info.php |
or
B. The following will show the current group and user (see below for code)
| Code: | | http://localhost/whoami.php |
16. Restart
17. Nextcloud setup
A. http://localhost/nextcloud
B. Select "Storage and Database" to change data location to /to/your/nextcloud/data (/to/your/nextcloud/data will be created, do not create!)
C. Create admin user and password
D. Select "Finish Setup" to complete setup
E. Setup other users and apps
18. Change file handling size (Can't be changed in GUI due to Lighttpd)
Modify /var/www/localhost/htdocs/nextcloud/.user.ini via root
From
| Code: | upload_max_filesize=513M
post_max_size=513M |
To
| Code: | upload_max_filesize=16G
post_max_size=16G |
19. Setup cron job
| Code: | sudo crontab -u clouddata -e
*/15 * * * * php -f /var/www/localhost/htdocs/nextcloud/cron.php |
20. Trusted Domains issue - add server ip address
Modify /var/www/localhost/htdocs/nextcloud/config/config.php
From
| Code: | array (
0 => 'localhost',
), |
To
| Code: | array (
0 => 'localhost','nextcloud.server.ip.address',
), |
**********************************************************************************************
The following three files are to help setup Nextcloud.
1. Nextcloud script - change permissions for nextcloud
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
ncpath='/var/www/localhost/htdocs/nextcloud'
htuser='clouddata'
htgroup='clouddata'
rootuser='root'
printf "Creating possible missing Directories\n"
mkdir -p $ncpath/data
mkdir -p $ncpath/assets
mkdir -p $ncpath/updater
printf "chmod Files and Directories\n"
find ${ncpath}/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0640
find ${ncpath}/ -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 0750
printf "chown Directories\n"
chown -R ${rootuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/apps/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/assets/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/config/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/data/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/themes/
chown -R ${htuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/updater/
chmod +x ${ncpath}/occ
printf "chmod/chown .htaccess\n"
if [ -f ${ncpath}/.htaccess ]
then
chmod 0644 ${ncpath}/.htaccess
chown ${rootuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/.htaccess
fi
if [ -f ${ncpath}/data/.htaccess ]
then
chmod 0644 ${ncpath}/data/.htaccess
chown ${rootuser}:${htgroup} ${ncpath}/data/.htaccess
fi |
2. /var/www/localhost/htdocs/info.php - PHP info
| Code: | | <?php phpinfo(); ?> |
3. /var/www/localhost/htdocs/whoami.php - Tells who is the current group and user for Nextcloud
| Code: | <?php
echo "User: " . exec('whoami');
echo "Group: " . exec('groups');
?> |

Reserved for Nextcloud client when available.
For now the Owncloud client can be used but you will need to specify "nextcloud" in the server setup:
| Code: | | nextcloud.server.ip.address/nextcloud |

Good Topic, thank you, davidbrooke!
How we can run occ script?
| Code: | # php occ - apache list
Console has to be executed with the user that owns the file config/config.php
Current user: root
Owner of config.php: apache
Try adding 'sudo -u apache ' to the beginning of the command (without the single quotes)
If running with 'docker exec' try adding the option '-u apache' to the docker command (without the single quotes) |
We can not login like a apache to execute this and we dont have sudo. |

you need to run it as the user associated to lighthttpd:
| Code: | | su -s /bin/bash -c "php /var/www/localhost/htdocs/nextcloud/occ COMMAND" lighthttpd |
