=== LDAP/AD Integration Settings ===
 +
Do not change the LDAP/AD integration settings for "1. Server: Localhost" or you will break the Nextcloud install.  If you want to add a second LDAP/AD server, click the "+" symbol to add another configuration and then add the appropriate LDAP/AD settings.
 +
 +
=== Command line ===
 +
if you happen to need tweaking your installation, here is how to access the command line for Nextcloud on SME, we made it easier for you, just log as root and use the OCC command (using capitals), This command will execute for you what you need as the www user, using the needed version of php. Here two examples: <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ maintenance:mode --off
 +
occ maintenance:repair
 +
 +
</syntaxhighlight>to seek for additional command consult Nextcloud documentation : https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_server/occ_command.html

=== Upgrade ===
 +
yum  update {{#var:smecontribname}} {{#var:contribname}} --enablerepo=smecontribs
 +
 +
=== CLI upgrade of Nextcloud software ===
 +
You should rather prefer the online updater, but in case:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ maintenance:mode --on
 +
sudo -u www /usr/bin/php74 --define memory_limit=1024M -d apc.enable_cli=1 /usr/share/nextcloud/updater/updater.phar --no-interaction
 +
occ upgrade
 +
occ maintenance:mode --off
 +
</syntaxhighlight>In case of a huge db, you can choose the online updater and then only issue the db update doing<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ upgrade
 +
occ maintenance:mode --off
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 +
starting 25 to upgrace to 26, you should do
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ maintenance:mode --on
 +
sudo -u www /usr/bin/php81 --define memory_limit=1024M -d apc.enable_cli=1 /usr/share/nextcloud/updater/updater.phar --no-interaction
 +
occ upgrade
 +
occ maintenance:mode --off
 +
</syntaxhighlight>In case of a huge db, you can choose the online updater and then only issue the db update doing<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +

 +
 +
=== Restore info loglevel ===
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ config:system:set loglevel --value=3
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
    
=== Uninstall ===
 
=== Uninstall ===
  yum remove {{#var:smecontribname}}  {{#var:contribname}}
+
 
 +
{{Warning box| if you plan to reinstall and had the nextcloud rpm installed do not yum remove it or rpm -e it as it would put you in a situation where you will not be able to reinstall and restore your old data. nextcloud-src rpm if present do not create such situation and can be removed safely.}}
 +
 
 +
Uninstalling the rpms
 +
  yum remove {{#var:smecontribname}}  {{#var:contribname}}-src
 +
rpm -e --justdb nextcloud
 +
 
 +
those folders will then remain
 +
* /usr/share/nextcloud : software and config
 +
* /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud : user data
 +
 
 +
also you will have mariadb or mariadb105 with nextcloud db and user.
 +
 
 +
And finally, db configuration with entry for nextcloud.
 +
 
 +
If all of those remains as is, a simple reinstall of the contrib will bring back nextcloud running. If you uninstalled it because your install was non functional or want a complete removal, there are extra steps.
 +
 
 +
In case of deleting either the db or part of the software folder, whenever you will try to reinstall the contrib, process will fail as db and files are not in sync. 
 +
 
 +
In case you need to reinstall from scratch, '''first, backup what you might want to restore latter''':
 +
cd /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data
 +
mysqldump nextcloud > nextcloud55.sql
 +
mysqldump105 nextcloud > nextcloud105.sql
 +
config print nextcloud /root/nextcloud.config
 +
tar -czf  /root/nextcloud.tar.gz /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data /usr/share/nextcloud
 +
then erase all what is remaining:
 +
mysql -e "DROP DATABASE `config getprop nextcloud DbName`;DROP USER IF EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`;"
 +
mysql105 -e "DROP DATABASE `config getprop nextcloud DbName`;DROP USER IF EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`;"
 +
rm -rf /usr/share/nextcloud
 +
rm -rf /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud
 +
#this one is optional, and should not cause issue if still there
 +
config delete nextcloud
 +
 
 +
and you should be able to start a new install from scratch

 +
=== Change Database ===
 +
If you are in the situation your are unable to update your nextcloud because of database requirements, you might need to install a newer and then migrate your db.
 +
 
 +
Here a simple procedure, after having the new db working as a sclo [[Mariadb105]] for SME10 as example.<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ maintenance:mode --on
 +
mysqldump `config getprop nextcloud DbName` > nextcloud.sql
 +
echo "CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbName` CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci;"| mysql105
 +
mysql105 `config getprop nextcloud DbName`< nextcloud.sql
 +
echo "CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '`config getprop nextcloud DbPassword`';"| mysql105
 +
echo "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `config getprop nextcloud DbName`.* TO `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`@localhost; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;" | mysql105
 +
occ config:system:set dbhost --value localhost:/var/lib/mysql/mariadb105.sock --type string
 +
occ maintenance:mode --off
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
After checking that all is working you can then delete yourself the old db from the previous mysql server, or keep it as a backup for a while.
 +
If it fails and just want to go back to previous state:
 +
occ maintenance --on
 +
occ config:system:set host --value localhost --type string
 +
occ maintenance --off
 +
 
 +
=== File Scan ===
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
# scan all, could take hours if you have a lot of files
 +
occ files:scan -v --all
 +
# scan all that is inside a username path (including external storages mounted there)
 +
occ files:scan -v myusername
 +
#scan only a subfolder of a user (path needs a heading / and is relative to /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data)
 +
occ files:scan -v --path="/myusername/files/myfolder/mysubfolder" myusername
 +
#For external storage one has to use a user and the mount point in the user space, e.g. admin
 +
occ files:scan -v --path="/admin/files/name_of_external_storage"
 +
</syntaxhighlight>If you use groupgfolders app, then you might consider, to list the golders id<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ groupfolders:list
 +
</syntaxhighlight>then for folder group with id 1<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
occ groupfolders:scan 1
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
=== Known issues ===
 +
 
 +
==== Web or GUI upgrade from NC25 to NC26  ====
 +
 
 +
Due to the change of php version needed from php74 to php80 and higher, you need to issue the following command while using NC25 to be able to then upgrade to NC26. NC25 is the first to be able to handle php80, and NC26 requires php80 or higher.
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
signal-event nextcloud-update
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
==== Issue importing files in db "Entry path/to/file will not be accessible due to incompatible encoding" ====
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
yum install convmv --enablerepo=epel
 +
#first test to see the changes
 +
convmv -f utf-8 -t utf-8 --nfc -r /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data/username
 +
#check, then with --notest
 +
convmv -f utf-8 -t utf-8 --nfc -r --notest /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data/username
 +
#then rescan
 +
occ files:scan -p /username/files/
 +
</syntaxhighlight>this might also occurs on ibays / home folders and their files not all visibles from nextcloud, simply adapt the path for convmv /home/e-smith/files/ibays/ibayname/files/ or /home/e-smith/files/users/userame/home/
 +
 
 +
==== Remove legacy nextcloud rpm without deleting /usr/share/nextcloud content ====
 +
for installs done before smeserver-nextcloud 1.2.0-16, the rppm nextcloud was required and was conflicting with web update. Since 1.2.0-16 it is not required anymroe and we use a nextcloud-src rpm which updates itself in /usr/share/nextcloud-src and is only used if you install the first time or restart from scratch your install.
 +
To remove the nextcloud rpm which is not needed and save your files:
 +
rpm -e --justdb nextcloud
 +
 
 +
source https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/208722/how-to-remove-an-rpm-package-while-keeping-certain-files
 +
 
 +
==== User cannot see shares/files ====
 +
 
 +
After a new install the admin user could see shares but not a user.
 +
 
 +
We had a single ibay and it was set:
 +
 
 +
Group Everyone
 +
Write group
 +
Read everyone
 +
 
 +
We created a new group called localusers and added the admin and single user.
 +
 
 +
We then set the ibay:
 +
 
 +
Group localusers
 +
Write group
 +
Read group
 +
 
 +
This appeared to fix the issue and the user could now see the files.
 +
 
 +
====Upgrading beyond 20.x====
 +
 
 +
To set the default phone region:
 +
 
 +
OCC config:system:set default_phone_region --type string --value="GB"
 +
 
 +
To fix missing indices - this may take a while so be patient:
 +
 
 +
OCC db:add-missing-indices
 +
 
 +
==== NC 20-21 :  open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/templates/) is not within the allowed path ====
 +
this is a bug in NC. It has been fixed in NC 22 and not backported to NC20. This is just log noise. You can ignore it while waiting to update
 +
see https://help.nextcloud.com/t/error-file-templates-is-not-within-the-allowed-path-s-after-update-from-20-xx-to-21-0-3/119843
 +
 
 +
===Reset Database===
 +
 
 +
For reference, whilst looking at resetting file caches I found this.
 +
 
 +
It is probably extremely dangerous but wanted to make a note.
