Build your own VM, or install on a VPS

DigitalOcean example: https://youtu.be/LlqY5Y6P9Oc

Minimum requirements:

• A clean Ubuntu Server 18.04.X
• OpenSSH (preferred)
• 20 GB HDD for OS
• XX GB HDD for DATA (/mnt/ncdata)
• At least 1 vCPU and 2 GB RAM (4 GB minimum if you are running OnlyOffice)
• A working internet connection (the script needs it to download files and variables)

Recommended

• Thick provisioned (better performance and easier to maintain)
• DHCP available
• 40 GB HDD for OS
• 4 vCPU
• 4 GB RAM

Installation

1. Get the latest install script from master:
   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/vm/master/nextcloud_install_production.sh
2. Run the script with:
   sudo bash nextcloud_install_production.sh
3. When the VM is installed it will automatically reboot. Remember to login with the user you created:
   ssh <user>@IP-ADDRESS
   If it automatically runs as root when you reboot the machine, you have to abort it by pressing CTRL+C and run the script as the user you just created:
   sudo -u <user> sudo bash /var/scripts/nextcloud-startup-script.sh
   
4. Please note that the installation/setup is not finnished by just running the nextcloud_install_production.sh When you login with the (new) sudo user you ran the script with in step 2 you will automatically be presented with the setup script.

Machine configuration of the released version

Please check the configuration here: https://www.techandme.se/machine-setup-nextcloud/

Do you want to run this on your Raspberry Pi?

Great news! We have forked this repository and created a Raspberry Pi image that you can download from here: https://github.com/techandme/NextBerry or here https://www.techandme.se/nextberry-rpi/.

We call it NextBerry and it's confirmed to be working on Raspberry Pi 2 & 3.

I want to test RC!

No problem! We made it simple. Run update.sh but abort it before it starts so that you have the latest nextcloud_update.sh. Then put this in your nextcloud_update.sh below the curl command (lib.sh) but before everything else and run it:

To test a specific RC version:

PO="https://download.nextcloud.com/server/prereleases"
RSION=12.0.1RC5
LEVERSION="nextcloud-$NCVERSION"

Or the latest RC:

PO="https://download.nextcloud.com/server/prereleases"
RSION=$(curl -s -m 900 $NCREPO/ | sed --silent 's/.*href="nextcloud-\([^"]\+\).zip.asc".*/\1/p' | sort --version-sort | tail -1)
LEVERSION="nextcloud-$NCVERSION"

FAQ

Keep asking questions so that we can add them here.

Q: Where can i dowload VMware Player?
A: You can download the latest release here.

Q: I get NETWORK NOT OK when booting the VM. How do I solve that?
A: There are a few causes to this error, most of them are your own network or firewall settings.

• Remove the VM NIC adapter in settings on VMware/Virtualbox and then re-adding a NIC adapter.
• Check your firewall so that it doesn't block this specific IP
