On a fresh installation
,
an owncloud/nextcloud admin account needs to be created and the initial setup needs to occur
.
This is accomplished by pointing a browser to the FQDN defined in the webserver config:

Simple open the address OwnCloud/Nextcloud has been configured on
,
e.g
. https://www.

.com/.

https://www.

Enter the administrative account (username
/
password) and the name of the database, database user, and database user password to initialize the instance
.

Once completed, if you have chosen to enable PHP caching as optionally instructed above, add the following directive to {{ic|/usr/share/webapps/owncloud/config/config.php}} or to {{ic|/usr/share/webapps/nextcloud/config/config.php}}:

Substitute the literal "@@FQDN@@" in the template file with the actual [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_qualified_domain_name FQDN] to be used. The certs for the server need to be generated using this unencrypted configuration initially. Follow the steps outlined on [[

2. Upon successfully generating certificates, replace {{ic|/etc/nginx/conf.d/cloud-initial.conf}} (it may be safely renamed so long as it does not end in ".conf" or simply deleted) with a new file, {{ic|/etc/nginx/conf.d/cloud.conf}} using [https://github.com/graysky2/configs/blob/master/nginx/nextcloud.conf this file] as a template. Again, substitute the literal "@@FQDN@@" in the template file with the actual [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_qualified_domain_name FQDN] to be used. [[Start]] and optionally [[enable]] {{ic|nginx.service}}.

== Important notes ==
−
−
{{Style|These notes should go in their appropriate sections.}}
−
−
* When using a subdomain (like cloud.example.net), make sure it is covered by your certificate. Otherwise, connection via the ownCloud client or webdav might fail.
−
−
* If you are planning on using ownCloud's [http://owncloud.org/sync-clients/ sync-clients], make sure to have [[ntpd]] installed and running on your ownCloud server, otherwise the sync-clients will fail.
−
−
* Add some [[LAMP#TLS/SSL|SSL encryption]] to your connection!
−
(If adding SSL encryption as above, be sure to edit /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf and change DocumentRoot "/srv/http" to DocumentRoot "/usr/share/webapps/owncloud" )
−
−
* More Apps for ownCloud can be found [http://apps.owncloud.com/ here]
−
−
* To install an new application, download the zip from the apps store, extract it into /srv/http/owncloud/apps/.
−
Afterwards restart httpd:
−
−
# systemctl restart httpd
−
−
log into your server go to the app sections you should see the new apps in there,
−
−
* If you are protecting access to your ownCloud location with HTTP basic auth, the file "status.php" must be excluded from auth and be publicly accessible. [https://github.com/owncloud/mirall/issues/734]

[[

to the
uploaded
file
which can then be emailed or shared in another way

You can use the following script to quickly upload and share files to your ownCloud installation from Thunar (and possibly other filemanagers):
