This document shows you how to install the NextCloud in a LXD container on Raspberry Pi.

1. Quick

# Raspberry Pi setup # Setup network sudo arp-scan -I ens33 --localnet # find your raspberry pi sudo apt-get -y update --allow-releaseinfo-change # Setup static IP sudo vi /etc/dhcpcd.conf ----------------------------- interface wlan0 static routers=192.168.1.1 static domain_name_servers=8.8.8.8 static ip_address=192.168.1.198/24 ----------------------------- sudo ip link set wlan0 down && sudo ip link set wlan0 up # install snap sudo apt install -y snapd sudo snap install core sudo reboot # LXD # install LXD sudo snap install lxd --channel=latest/stable sudo /snap/bin/lxd init ==> Size in GiB of the new loop device (1GiB minimum) [default=23GiB]: 115GiB sudo usermod -a -G lxd ${USER} su - ${USER}  # apply the new group membership # create LXD container for nextcloud lxc image list images: architecture=armhf os=Ubuntu   # check ubuntu images for Raspberry Pi lxc launch images:ubuntu/20.04 ubuntu-container lxc exec ubuntu-container -- passwd ubuntu   # setup the default passwd for normal user  lxc exec ubuntu-container -- apt-get update # add proxy device lxc config device add ubuntu-container myport443 proxy listen=tcp:0.0.0.0:443 connect=tcp:127.0.0.1:443 # Nextcloud # install packages lxc exec ubuntu-container -- su --login ubuntu   # enter the container sudo apt install -y snapd    sudo snap install core sudo reboot # install nextcloud lxc exec ubuntu-container -- su --login ubuntu   # enter the container sudo snap install nextcloud verify snap changes nextcloud snap info nextcloud sudo systemctl  | grep nextcloud # enable https sudo /snap/bin/nextcloud.enable-https self-signed # verify https://192.168.1.198/

3. Detail Procedure

3.1. Raspberry Pi

3.1.1. Step 1:Setup network

sudo arp-scan -I ens33 --localnet # find your raspberry pi sudo apt-get -y update --allow-releaseinfo-change # Setup static IP sudo vi /etc/dhcpcd.conf ----------------------------- interface wlan0 static routers=192.168.1.1 static domain_name_servers=8.8.8.8 static ip_address=192.168.1.198/24 ----------------------------- sudo ip link set wlan0 down && sudo ip link set wlan0 up

3.1.2. Step 2: Install packages

# install snap sudo apt install -y snapd sudo snap install core sudo reboot

3.2. LXD

3.2.1. Setp 1: Install & Initialized

sudo snap install lxd --channel=latest/stable sudo /snap/bin/lxd init ==> Size in GiB of the new loop device (1GiB minimum) [default=23GiB]: 115GiB sudo usermod -a -G lxd ${USER} su - ${USER}  # apply the new group membership # if you want to remove the container # lxc delete ubuntu-container --force

3.2.2. Step 2: Create a container

lxc image list images: architecture=armhf os=Ubuntu   # check ubuntu images for Raspberry Pi lxc launch images:ubuntu/20.04 ubuntu-container lxc exec ubuntu-container -- passwd ubuntu   # setup the default passwd for normal user  lxc exec ubuntu-container -- apt-get update

E.g.

3.2.3. Step 3: Add proxy device to container

Redirect https traffic to the container that nextcloud service located.

lxc config device add ubuntu-container myport443 proxy listen=tcp:0.0.0.0:443 connect=tcp:127.0.0.1:443

E.g.

3.3. Install NextCloud in LXD

3.3.1. Step 1: Intall packages

lxc exec ubuntu-container -- su --login ubuntu   # enter the container sudo apt install -y snapd    sudo snap install core sudo reboot

3.3.2. Step 2: Install NextCloud

lxc exec ubuntu-container -- su --login ubuntu   # enter the container sudo snap install nextcloud verify snap changes nextcloud snap info nextcloud sudo systemctl  | grep nextcloud # Other Options # latest version (26.0.0 dev) # sudo snap remove nextcloud # remove previous nextcloud # sudo snap install nextcloud --channel=latest/edge

E.g.

3.3.3. Step 3: Enable https

sudo /snap/bin/nextcloud.enable-https self-signed

E.g.
