Cannot get OwnCloud to work

[Makaveli6103]

I have been trying for a bit now and cannot get it to work. First the service would not start up. But I changed the IP address of the jail and it finally started. But now I cannot access it through my browser via the jail IP. I googled and found this http://imgur.com/a/FgFlc I tried to do that but I could not get the ssh service to start. I got the error. Set sshd_enable to Yes. Any help?

Did you install the Owncloud plugin or install it in a jail manually? Also post what you see when you got to the jail in in the web-browser. You don't need to tinker with ssh to make the default owncloud work. When you install the plugin you get the owncloud initial screen to set up the admin user. Once you set up the admin user and login as the admin user you can setup the other users.

Ok Thanks. I finally got it up and working but I added storage to the Jail and when I try to access it I get an error saying

• Data directory (/media) not writable by ownCloud
  Permissions can usually be fixed by giving the webserver write access to the root directory.

I checked and that folder in the jail is set to nobody and nogroup....did I miss something?

Run command ' ps auxw' in the jail from the CLI. The folder should be writable by the user name under which the owncloud is being run ( the multiple owncloud processes).

This is what I got.... I am kind of confused now

The data directory (it would default to /media) should be writable by 'www' (which again I thought was the default). Let ownCloud create the sub-directories. From the CLI in the jail use command "chown -R www media"

I had the same issue, but "chown -R www media" did the trick.
So I guess the default is not www for /media
Thanks
