Working on a new Hyper-V host for Nextcloud and ready to go insane. This host will be at a different location and of course - there is no domain to simplify using Hyper-V manager. Decided to try WAC. That software in my opinion is a train wreck. Very slow and constantly crashes. Tried on multiple machines and most of them exceeded the requirements to run it. Don't care for the way it created a new vm. Don't care for it in general. Frustrated beyond belief. Tired of fighting Hyper-v management. I have it deployed all over the place and zero issues when it is on a domain. Hate the fact that if I would change machines to manage on a non-domain, i would have to jump thru hoops to set up each machine.

In comes KVM - I am seriously considering using it to host the Nextcloud server which will run on Fedora as well the KVM host. I need someone to convince me otherwise. If Cockpit would work well enough to manage the VMs, I may just go that route. Any reason this is a bad idea? I have used KVM with virt-manager but not fully used Cockpit for management. Web interface would be the best fit for this install.

Waiting on a new server to arrive for Nextcloud and Nginx.

@Pete-S I believe Dell drives are manufactured by Toshiba.

@scottalanmiller I can depending on the time frame...

Used it a few times to check it out when I first started buying SSDs. I have not installed it in a while. Don't feel it is necessary.

@JaredBusch Yes, we were going to try to use the Pterodactyl panel to manage a server.

My son wanted to set up an MC server with mods yesterday evening. The process seems so convoluted. Trying Pterodactyl as of late last night but have to finish the install.

What about mounting in an outdoor rated fiberglass box that is gasketed? Like this one:

I use these all the time.

Windows 10 and Fedora 29 on all desktops/laptop for daily driver. Ran Ubuntu for a while but switched to Fedora a couple years ago. Tried Suse and Mint but they were temporary. Have a few servers running Ubuntu, but anything new goes on Fedora.

Just got home from a project I've been working on. Trenching in duct and pulling fiber to create a ring around a large ranch for access controls/gates/etc.

The problem was the items such as $remote_addr did not copy at all. They were missing. The config passed. Did the certbot and all went fine. If I go to https://nc.domain.com the site loads properly. If I go to http://nc.domain.com the site redirects and loads fine. Both work and cert loads in browser. However, if I go to nc.domain.com, it returns a blank page and shows https://localhost in the browser. I have the fqdn set up on the NC server and the Nginx. Not sure where this is coming from.

@JaredBusch I looked at the config till my eyes went cross and didn’t notice that. I’ll check again later and see. I looked at the logs and they don’t really give any clues.

Trying to get this to work tonight. The nextcloud.conf is copied on the Nginx server. I changed the server_name and the proxy_pass. Everything else is unchanged. When I run the nginx-t to verify, it returns

nginx: [emerg] invalid number of arguments in "proxy_set_header" directive in /etc/nginx/conf.d/nextcloud.conf:4
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

I have researched for a few hours and cannot "see" where the issue is. I am in need of some guidance.

It had to be fixed by GoDaddy support. They cleared out the forwarder and all is well.
I need to look in to Cloudfare.

Looks like there is a Forwarder that will not delete and is causing the problem. Working on it now..

Using GoDaddy DNS, I can add a forwarder to a sub domain with either http or https and it works instantly. If I create an A record for sub.domain.com it doesn’t seem to work. Trying to point 2 sub domains at my Nginx and it never seems to propagate. What am I missing?

@JaredBusch It would intermittently lose connection with FreePBX server and become unregistered. They were in the same rack and not connected via WAN to a remote server. Lost configs a few times. A firmware update helped. Had a few minor echo complaints but could never reproduce. I would't say it was a horrible unit but there were some cheaper alternatives at the time.

I have used a Vega 50 and would not recommend it. Have since moved everything to SIP.

@black3dynamite I honestly don't know. I always use a normal user account and elevate privileges when necessary.

@black3dynamite I noticed that too. Did not try command yet either.
