OwnCloud SSH login fail

[Visseroth]

I've been trying to get ssh to work on owncloud in order to get it setup and running but when I try and login it give me the error, "Access denied"

I followed the guidelines on this site... https://forums.freenas.org/index.ph...talling-owncloud-in-freenas-or-freebsd.19605/

Anyone have any ideas?

Are you trying to..
1) SSH into your owncloud jail?
2) or use an SSH external mountpoint in owncloud?

Are you using the plugin or the guide you linked?

I'm trying to ssh into the jailed plugin and yes, trying to use the plugin and the guide I linked.

I think I may have found my answer in another guide though.....

You don't need to SSH into the jail. What I personally do is setup SSH on my FreeNAS host, SSH to that, then use jls to enter my jail.

What are you trying to accomplish from the linked guide?

Trying to get Owncloud properly setup and secured. I don't want to expose it to the www without knowing it's properly setup and secured

How do you jls into a jailed machine?

can you be a bit more specific what you are trying to change about what the plugin installs? I just want to know if I can give you a more efficient path.

Sorry, I meant 'jexec'. SSH into your FreeNAS machine, run 'jls' to list the jail ID for your owncloud jail, then enter the jail with 'jexec # csh' where # is the jail ID.

to be frank I'm new to owncloud completely. Simply trying to make it run and be secure is all. I'd like to be able to use all it's features.

I'm starting to wonder if you're hinting at that it's pretty much ready to run out of the box

The plugin is designed to work out of the box without having to use the commandline.

There's a few things you would need to use the commandline for, but doens't sound like you even know what these are.
* install additional dependencies related to specific owncloud apps (libreoffice / ffmpeg / smbclient / clamav)
* setup fail to ban
* setup a real SSL certificate (the plugin generates a self-signed one)

Really? Well through these trials and errors I do know how to do at least that much :)

Well crud, I'll give it a shot, out of the box and see what happens

Why are people setting up apache and mysql on their systems then?

the plugin uses apache by default.

Reasons I see to not run owncloud not using the plugin..
* owncloud runs faster with mysql
* you control updates for dependencies (webserver/PHP/database)

As a related note, sometime in the next few months I'm going to work on a mysql version of the owncloud plugin for users who would rather sacrifice ~1GB of RAM to mysql for a faster owncloud experience.

 

[Visseroth]

Indeed that would be me. Shoot me a PM, I'd like to give your tutorial a try.
Thus far I'm running on a system with 16GB of RAM but as soon as I get the drives for my new server I'll be running with 48. I'll have plenty of head room.

OK. I believe all the problems I've been experiencing is because you guys are install owncloud directly into a jail without using the plugin.

How are you guys doing that? I have yet to see instructions on how to install owncloud without using the available plugin.

Owncloud is just some php scripts with a database. SQlite by default.

You simply install apache(or nginx/lighttpd/etc), php, and the necessary components and then install owncloud like normal. There isn't some special package or voodoo required. It's a very straight forward install.
