Boom!

Think about learning is that you chip away at it,... one problem at a time.

getting a DB error now,

Error while trying to create admin user:
Failed to connect to the database: An ex exception occurred in driver:
SQLSTATE[HY000][2002] Connection refused

Not sure if I should be using MariaDB or PHP;

Only MySQL/MariaDB is available. Install and activate additional PHP modules to choose other database types

Probably something rather simple like I need to add the user to the DB or get the correct user/password combo.

PHP is a web display language so the choice is just MariaDB. I think you can use PostgreSQL as well.

Thank you.. and you are right,.. It's been a while since I have done much web work..

Well - this could be the reason:

pi@nextCloud:~ $ sudo systemctl is-active mariadb.service
unknown
pi@nextCloud:~ $ sudo systemctl restart mariadb.service
Failed to restart mariadb.service: Unit mariadb.service failed to load: No such file or directory.

No - wait,.. I realize now that it could be running MySQL - ....

Make sure you run mysql_sercure_installation after installing MariaDB.

MariaDB is the default MySQL server for Debian and most modern Linux distributions. You actually have to, generally, add a new repo to pick up MySQL.
