SOLVED Nextcloud internal server error after php and version update

[russtysandwiches]

Well, I've run an update via the plugin "update" button and we seem to be back now.

Nextcloud is yelling at me to update php but i guess there is no way to safely do this.

Also, I guess I should avoid this big shiny update button. Without a snapshot in place first.
As for the scripted install. I don't suppose there is a conversion kit of some kind?

And do you only have one user?

If so, then I would recommend following the instructions for the script, and doing a simple cp command to move the necessary files. That would be the simplest way of going about it.

Yeah Just me

Happy to tinker with this. However, I use a reverse proxy pointing to my current nextcloud instance to, deal with the SSL Certs.
Is there much id need to modify for this to work?
Could I just set the domain to localhost or something?

Then it shouldn’t take long to transfer the files.

The script lets you set it up with no cert, or a self-signed cert, or a valid cert.
Setting it up behind a reverse proxy is simple enough as well.

Update,

Ive managed to get Nextcloud to update to the latest without further issues. I only seem to get issues if I mess with the PHP version.

I believe the growing logs are indicative of the missing php 8.1+ files. I guess I will just have to wait for the official plugin to update its PHP version.
I will tinker with the scripting version of this and see how far I can get.

But for now. The lessons are:
Take a dam snapshot before running any sort of update!
Don't mess with the PHP version unless you know what you are doing

Along with any others, people could add.

I will mark this as solved but may start a new thread if I have issues with the scripted next cloud deployment.

Thank you for all the help!
