The default Nextcloud image, when deployed, will include /index.php in the url. It took quite some time to figure out how to fix this, and I just wanted to share the solution for others. This should be maybe be the default for the Turnkey installation, or at least should be displayed in the Readme/Docs of the image.

This is for root domain (eg. example.com or nextcloud.example.com). If you have a "/nextcloud" type subfolder path, change it accordingly.
In /var/www/nextcloud/config.php. add the line 'htaccess.RewriteBase' => '/' - Change owner/chown of /var/www/nextcloud/.htaccess from root to www-data (temporarily)
-
being in the /nextcloud folder, run this:
runuser -u www-data php occ maintenance:update:htaccess - change owner of .htaccess back to root

Awesome, thanks for this tweak! :) I agree that it'd be good to add by default. I've written it up as a feature request on our tracker.

The chown-changing step is a
The chown-changing step is a quick workaround for whoever finds this forum post, for the solution during install or in docs there could be a better way... executing it as root will yield a permission error. I think it has to do with the fact that the NC console utility and all files are owned by www-data, but the single .htaccess file by root.
