<![CDATA[Glump.net]]> Commentics Evan damnit, Brendan... now I have another project that I'll need to complete :P Excellent writeup, I must say.

]]> Sat, 07 Jun 2014 12:23:58 -0400 item_60 Wayne Dosch Thanks for the update.

]]> Mon, 02 Jun 2014 12:03:35 -0400 item_59 Brendan Kidwell I may update it in the next few months. I'm starting to write a book about the larger topic of managing a personal server with many apps -- not just one. And I feel that ownCloud should be included in the series of recipes in the book. When my new ownCloud recipe is done I'll replace this page with a new version. Until then, refer to the ownCloud manual and support site.

]]> Sat, 31 May 2014 18:43:13 -0400 item_58 Wayne Dosch I found your article and it's just what I was looking for. Any chance you will be updating it for Owncloud version 6? I'm going to play around with it, but I don't have the expertise to know what changes to make.

Thanks for the work,
Wayne

]]> Sat, 31 May 2014 14:44:30 -0400 item_57 Brendan Kidwell I covered 4.5 in my talk and in this article because 4.5 was current at the time. 5.0 came out a few weeks later and I found that my Nginx config recipes don't quite work with 5.0, and I have not had time to come back here and edit the article; sorry. If you use Apache (the web server standard in Debian in Ubuntu) it'll probably be pretty easy.

Do you need an X Window system? No. I wrote this article for newbies and I assumed they'd be using one. ownCloud the server app does not require access to a desktop in order to configure or run.

]]> Sun, 15 Sep 2013 16:59:50 -0400 item_56 frogola I am slowly starting to upgrade my home file server, installing owncloud and subsonic per your article. I am wondering why you used owncloud 4.x and not 5.x? Also wondering if any component in this solution requires the X window system; if not it seems safer to run the server without it.

Thanks for posting. My old server just uses NFS for file sharing. This solution should be spiffier.

]]> Sat, 14 Sep 2013 15:11:20 -0400 item_55 Carlton Brooks I am stuck at the following
Finally, add this line to the end of the server section, inside that section, near the bottom of the file:

include apps/*.conf;

I am unsure as to where exactly it goes.

Would this cause phpmyadmin not to be available?

Thanks

]]> Wed, 31 Jul 2013 18:01:06 -0400 item_54 Brendan Kidwell Thanks for the suggestion. I'll confirm this hopefully some time in July and clean up the article and comments section.

]]> Sat, 06 Jul 2013 13:40:38 -0400 item_53 Chris Blankenship Having run into the same issue with the "upgrading filesystem cache" message and doing some internet trolling to resolve the issue I came across an article (https://forum.owncloud.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=9193) that suggested the following addition to my /etc/nginx/apps/owncloud.conf file:

location ~ ^/owncloud/(.*\.php)$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$; <------ I added this line
...
}

After a quick restart of the nginx service and a logout/login of my account proved to resolve the issue. I can now get into OwnCloud without any issues...

]]> Sat, 06 Jul 2013 01:24:25 -0400 item_52 Torrey I figured the above question out

]]> Fri, 28 Jun 2013 18:55:20 -0400 item_51 Torrey Awesome just subscribed!

]]> Thu, 27 Jun 2013 23:11:02 -0400 item_50 Torrey Hi,

When I get to the step:
Now you can go to ownCloud and configure it. Go to http://files/owncloud/ and it prompts you to create an admin user

I get the message "No input file specified."

I have tried using 4.5.12 and 5.07 (as i cannot find 4.5.6 for download anywhere) and they both give me that error.

Any help would be great and thans for taking the time to write up this tutorial!

]]> Thu, 27 Jun 2013 23:10:25 -0400 item_49 Brendan Kidwell Yes ... and then it broke. :^( Check back here in a few more weeks or subscribe to this page's RSS feed.

]]> Thu, 27 Jun 2013 21:48:29 -0400 item_48 Torrey Have you found a solution to owncloud 5 yet?

]]> Thu, 27 Jun 2013 20:11:24 -0400 item_47 Brendan Kidwell Thank you for suggesting Madsonic. I'll check it out. I used Nginx and not Apache because I find Apache's configuration file scheme too complicated. Personal preference.

[Edit: The web site for Madsonic isn't very impressive. I had to dig several clicks into the forum to find an About post acting as an about page.]

]]> Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:01:14 -0400 item_46 fred you should try madsonic its a fork of subsonic and is there a reason why you dont use apache ?

]]> Mon, 10 Jun 2013 08:37:48 -0400 item_45 Brendan Kidwell It appears that the release of ownCloud 5.0 made my nginx configuration invalid. I tried installing ownCloud 5.0 today and it's doing some really strange stuff with paths and PHP parameters. The sample nginx configuration given on the ownCloud web site for 5.0 has no consideration for running in a folder under your web root like '/owncloud/'.

I will update this article when I have a solution. Use ownCloud 4.5 if you want the instructions here to work.

]]> Mon, 06 May 2013 02:22:33 -0400 item_44 Brendan Kidwell Oh nm, it was nginx that had permission trouble and you fixed that. I think I need to revisit the part of the guide where you create ~files/Apps/owncloud and comment on permissions. Either I missed DOCUMENTING that step or your OS's default permissions don't match the Ubuntu setup I used.

I have no comment on crash at lib/setup.php#277 yet.

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 16:45:06 -0400 item_43 Brendan Kidwell mv, is your PHP FastCGI process running as user 'files', the owner of /home/files/Apps/owncloud?

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 16:42:37 -0400 item_42 mv Well, I've completed your tutorial but still not completely successful: owncloud seems to be stuck in "upgrading filesystem cache" ...

The log shows the following warning:

Warning PHP mysql_close(): 46 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource at /home/files/Apps/owncloud/lib/setup.php#277

Line 277 of setup.php reads:

mysql_close($connection);

Any ideas? I've been trying to find a solution but so far have been unsuccessful. I have also deleted the mysql user and database as well as owncloud and re-installed, but I always get the same error.

Thanks!

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 15:50:12 -0400 item_41 mv OK, I figured what was wrong. The permissions for /home/files/ directory were set to drwx------ .... changed them to 755.

Hope it helps Sean and others.

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 14:13:32 -0400 item_40 mv After a bit of research I figure it is either related to permissions or to index.php not being included in nginx.config. Here is the current contents of my nginx.config:

[Edit by admin: moved to Pastebin] http://pastebin.com/yV4Lt19Q

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 13:48:00 -0400 item_39 mv I have the same problem as Sean. nginx's error log as follows:

Any help would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

]]> Wed, 24 Apr 2013 13:14:32 -0400 item_38 Brendan Kidwell nginx’s error log file might provide some clues.

]]> Thu, 18 Apr 2013 19:29:59 -0400 item_37 Sean When I get to this step Go to http://files/phpmyadmin/setup/

I get a 403 access denied error. Any ideas?
