I just installed Nextcloud following a youtube video with a good rating. When installing Nextcloud and started it, when I go to manage to add database and etc. I only see login and password, no database set up. I uninstalled it and installed it and the same thing. please help

Hi,

Unfortunately, we can not do much from your post...

What is your hardware ? What is your FreeNAS version ? Are you trying to use the plugin ? A VM ? A docker container ? ...

There are threads in here about installing Nextcloud using a scripted installer. Did you tried that one ?

Yep, try @danb35's script, very easy and "just works" tm

I am running FreeNAS latest revision I think as I just installed it a week ago. I am using my PC and booting FreeNAS from 8G bootable drive. I have intel 7 gen CPU, Biostar MB, 8 G DDR4 and Gforce GC. I downloaded the Nextcloud addon and try set up, again the initiative web interface did have the database set it has only the log in info.
I may have to try the other méthode mentioned if I don’t have a choice

If @danb35's script is not working for you you could also try this by user @fahadshery .

web interface did have the database set it has only the log in info.

This is as it should be, and the system should be able to tell you what the password is somewhere (the username would be "admin").

Could you please share @danb35's script. I can’t find it.

I Just installed NextCloud on my FREENAS 11.1-U1 last week using danb35's script. It worked like a charm with all checks passed and got an A+ on the NextCloud security check. Easiest NextCloud install I have ever done.
