There are many different ways to install NextCloud and I had quite a few posts to show the installation. Recently I found this Github AIO (All in One) project and it does give an easy way to install NextCloud with all other addon features. This blog post is to record all steps you will need to get NextCloud AIO up and running.

5 Open following firewall ports: 80, 443, 8080, 8443
6 Create a DNS A record to point your subdomain to your linux vps public ip
7 Access following url:
- https://<linux public ip>:8080
or
- https://<subdomain url>:8443
In this example, I am using nc.51sec.eu.org as NextCloud AIO’s subdomain
Nextcloud AIO setup
1 click Open Nextcloud AIO login
2 it opens a new tab for https://nc.51sec.eu.org:8443/login
3 After paste that long password in, click Log in button. You will be prompted a page to either choose new AIO instance or Restore fromer AIO instance from backup
We are going to enter nc.51sec.eu.org and submit domain for a new instance.
4 choose optional addons.
minimal system requirements is 2GB RAM, a dual-core CPU and 40GB system storage.
5 I unselected all to see if it can be run in a 1GB ram’s VPS.
After waitied 1-2 minutes, I got following screen to show the system starting process:
Results
After 5 minutes waiting, once all containers are up and running, you will get admin username and a password for login:

1. Change Domain
If for some reasons, the original domain cann’t get certificate, you might need to reset your domain.
If you find in there an issue like too many certificates already issued for yourdomain.com, you will need to wait until the limit is gone (around a week) or change your domain to e.g. a subdomain: https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one#how-to-change-the-domain
command:
- sudo docker run -it –rm –volume nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer:/mnt/docker-aio-config:rw alpine sh -c “apk add –no-cache nano && nano /mnt/docker-aio-config/data/configuration.json”
