Nextcloud

Setup

  1. Add DNS records at Infomaniak pointing cloud.<domain> to the server:

    • A record: cloud<ipv4>
    • AAAA record: cloud<ipv6>
  2. In Coolify, go to New Resource → Service and search for Nextcloud. Set the domain on the nextcloud container (hidden inside the container settings, not at the service level).

  3. Deploy. On first boot, Nextcloud shows an admin setup screen:

    • Create an admin account
    • For the database credentials, use the values from the Coolify environment variables (auto-generated)
  4. The suggested apps search may fail on first boot — this is a timeout issue and harmless.

  5. Configure email in Settings → Administration → Basic settings → Email server using the standard Proton Mail SMTP credentials.

Known issues

Cron errors in logs

Nextcloud needs a cron runner for background jobs. The default Docker setup doesn't include one, so errors will appear in the logs.
