## Description

Nextcloud is a self-hosted, open-source file and content collaboration platform that stores, syncs, and shares your files so you can access them from any desktop or mobile device. You run it on a server of your choice — at home, in a data center, or with a hosting provider — keeping your data private and connected to existing storage such as an office FTP drive, a Dropbox, or a home NAS. It serves as a private alternative to public cloud services for individuals and organizations.

## Common questions

### Which ports should be opened when starting Nextcloud all-in-one with Docker?

Open port 8080 for the setup page. Also open APACHE_PORT, which is the web-site port, for example 11000.

### Why do Nextcloud all-in-one containers stay stopped after a manual install?

You need to clone the all-in-one files, go into the manual-install folder, and run sudo docker compose up. If you skip this step, the containers remain stopped.

### How can I keep a Docker Rootless Nextcloud install running after a reboot?

Run loginctl enable-linger with your username. This keeps your Docker-related services running after a reboot so Nextcloud can start automatically.
