Not sure if the below still applies
# Add yourself and www-data to a shared group
### Create a shared group:
sudo groupadd ncshare
### Add both users:
sudo usermod -aG ncshare zaine
sudo usermod -aG ncshare www-data
### Set the folder to that group:
sudo chown -R zaine:ncshare /home/zaine/master-folder
sudo chmod -R 775 /home/zaine/master-folder
<2026-03-25 Wed> fixes:
Up To Date Fixes: We need to add zaine to the www-data group:
sudo usermod -aG www-data zaine
Then we need to make the directories setgid, so that any new files created will have the group www-data:
sudo chown -R zaine:www-data /home/zaine/master-folder
sudo chmod -R 2775 /home/zaine/master-folder # the 2 sets the setgid bit, which means that new files will inherit the group of the directory, which is www-data
Older fixes
So apparently, nextcloud needs to have www-data as the owner of the files, and to do that, we need to run the following command:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /home/zaine/master-folder
I modified the build scripts to change permissions back to zaine:zaine when deleting the output folder, then changing it back to www-data:www-data.
One other useful thing may be:
docker exec -u 1000:1000 -it nextcloud-app-1 php occ files:scan --all
# or
docker exec -u 1000 nextcloud-app-1 php occ files:scan --path="zaine/files/master-folder"

Legacy stuff
Something I've been trying to reverse proxy ahead of time. Go to https://zserver.zapto.org/nextcloud , you'll be prompted to login with a username and password: Here's your credentials:
Username: halima Password: loser2104!
Once you've logged in, I've set up your account already, so there should be a calendar already there.
To get your phone logged in, there's two ways:
-
go to the following address: https://zserver.zapto.org/nextcloud/settings/user/security , scroll to the bottom, under devices and sessions, type in a random name (iphone), and click create new app password. You should then be able to generate a QR code (next to or under the password field), then you can scan that on your iphone app.
-
inside the app, type the following URL: https://zserver.zapto.org/nextcloud then follow the instructions.
Im thinking of having this as our shared calendar and file system. The only users are us 2 and its completely off the internet (self-hosted).
