Nextcloud + ZFS for Storage + Cloudflare Tunnel Access | Proxmox Home Server | Home Lab

second video i watch after openmediavault, great video, great explaination, i learn a lot on the omv video, and this one explaination many think
your video are so esay to follow
+1 sub
thx

I found turnkey buggy and had many times it died when updated and cron wouldn't work. I am using nextcloudPI now and it is definitely superior

@MRP, Thanks for the amazing tutorial but I couldn't understand why you created a separate LXC container for cloudflare tunnel. I think I can use the same nextcloud LXC for cloudflare tunnel as well. Any specific reason for a separate LXC for cloudflare?

Great.
Thanks a lot!

ive followed this tutorial exactly and my next cloud container does not boot after editing the config file, can anyone help me out

Great tutorial, thanks! Do you have any suggestions - I did the two mount points in the CT config, but when I run 'df -h' in the container, my mounted storage is not showing up there. Thank you! EDIT: funny it worked when I deleted the two lines in the CT config file and added them using the 'pct set CTID /path/from,/path/to'. Anyway, got another sub!

I did subscribe wonderful video

Watched a few of your tutorials, so easy to follow I learned a lot as usual!

I tried doing this and it worked but when I installed the next cloud apps on my phone and the computer the website suddenly stopped working

would you do a tutorial on how to do ZFS operations with an unprivileged containerer?

Do you have to do all of those steps for every user account you create?

Fantastic video, especially for somebody who is just starting with VMs, CTs, and Proxmox in general. I love the fact that you're explaining everything. I'm surprised you only have 15k subs!

Really good tutorial, all the steps are very easy transferrable to non-proxmox hosting models as well, which is awesome.

Thanks a lot, works like a charm. I did a fresh install due to the fact, that the local drive was to small for my purposes. The folders within files from the old install wont be displayed. Do you have an idea, how i can fix this? Thanks alot, you're great and a great help for the communiy. :)

Great guide, but unfortunately i cant do ZFS. Note: ZFS is not compatible with disks backed by a hardware RAID controller. How would i do this LVM?

Hi bro, great video big thanks!! I followed your instructions step by step and it works very well with me for 3 days, but today I have a 502 error: Bad gateway when I try to access my nextcloud even if I didn't change anything on cloudflare or in configs, do you know how to solve this issue?

Excellent! Thank you so much, your explanation has helped me a lot.

I had this setup and running perfectly, however when I did a reboot on my Proxmox host the mount points were not saved. This left me with a container that wouldn't start. To get it running again I had to enable the 'zfs import cache service' by running..

systemctl enable zfs-import-cache.service

This will enable Proxmox to check for and mount any zfs mapped shares and configure them before trying to start the container.

Hope this helps someone!
Thanks again mrp!

thank you
MRP your a star

Wow… but can I do the same hack if I want to mount a folder that’s on an SMB share?

sweet, finally working with tunnels... thank you😃😃😃😃😃

Thanks mate, really appreciate the pace and clear descriptions of your actions during the tutorial, always makes me keen for the next instalments.

You are the best, followed step by step and got it working in under 3 hours! Thanks to you're detailed comments and calm phase my first approach has been a breeze.
You are my hero i have been searching for a while to wrap my head around the whole process and thanks to you finally got it!

Wouldn't it be easier to set the mount point to the nextcloud root folder as a whole instead of setting one for each user? I mean, doing it separately as you did is gonna require a reboot of the container each time a new user is added, wouldn't it? Have you done it this way because of security reasons? Awesome video, thank you very much!

Great video, you explained really well. Instead of using zfs, I would like to put the storage on my truenas scale at say mount point /mnt/zeus/nextcloud. How would I go about that? I tried created a mount point similar to what you did for zfs but didn't work.

What are the possibilities of seeing this done on TrueNAS Scale?

thank you!
This time, I bought a domain and applied it to homelab, and I first learned that it was a cloudflare tunnel through this video.
Also, setting up a cloud via ZFS is really intuitive and easy to manage.
Thank you so much for making the video.

I followed the setup excactly and it worked great , then suddenly got a 502 from cloudflare , even if i did not change any settings , do you need to configure something else than tunnels on cloudflare dns ?

what are these
problems?

1) The last background process lasted 1 hour ago. Something wrong. Check background process settings ↗.

2) Last cron run: 2 hours ago. There may be a problem.

I followed the guide perfectly, if I create a folder in admin, he sees it, but another user doesn't see it, why?

Please help me

you don't say that we need as begginers to command line: PVEAM UPDATE at first...

Do you know what port we need to setup for the reverse proxy with this setup?

Hello, again a great and understandable video from you. I have been thinking about using the CF tunnel for Nextcloud for a while :-) I have an ambiguity regarding data protection. There is on YT one or the other critical statement that the traffic that is passed through the CF tunnel can be analyzed and read by CF. How do you see this? Can I use the tunnel with good conscience also for example for Vaultwarden?

I really congratulate you and thank you very much for the professional and exhaustive work you do through your videos. This is just what I was looking for. I'm new to these systems and I'm not practical, plus I don't speak English well. I would like to better understand why I have to add users from the console and not from the web interface. I would like to share Excel files, pdfs and photos even remotely with my staff which is 30 people and some of them will have access to different folders of the tank, do I have to manually create 30 accounts from shell?

I have no idea how you learned all this, but thank you for sharing your knowledge! Helped me out a lot! Would've never figured this stuff out by myself. Really liked how you explained what each commands did in layman terms.

Absolutely fantastic video, thanks for sharing it and taking the time to explain it in detail. One issue I have is when I restart the Debian Cloudflare CT the cloudflare connection is lost and doesn’t come back. Am I missing something in making the connection recursive when the CT restart? Thanks

in 4 weeks i watch your video many time. today i get it done. my nextcloud working great now.

One of the best Videos. Thank you

you made this easy man, thank you very much for the awesome tutorial.

This works great for about 24 hours then I start getting 502 from cloudflare. I can't even access it locally (connection refused). I think it has something to do with Apache and certs. I've gone through the whole process from scratch 3 times.

OMG Thank you! thank you

Massive thank you. As others have said you explained each part which was a massive help for someone such as myself who has never worked with servers before. Took me a few days to stumble upon your channel but really glad I did!

I have a challenge: I would like to always have a copy of my files and folders that I upload to my Nexcloud account.
Is it somehow possible in promox to automatically copy new files and folders from my nextcloud user_1 datadirectory into a backup directory ?
nextcloud datadirectory => (/dev/sdb1) /mnt/pve/data_1/nextcloud-data/user_1/files/
backup directory => (/dev/sdc1) /mnt/pve/backup/nextcloud-data/user_1/files/

Can you do a video on what configurations that you need to do following this install for Talk to work externally ? I can not seem to find any body that is documenting the usage of Talk wile using Cloudflare tunnel. I also am using PFSense as my router and the domain is an actual Cloudflare domain. Everything is working to include starting calls but audio and video are not making it outside of the network. When I start the call if I hit a reaction you can see it on the other side of the call. I have tried all the fixes I have found but I am obviously looking at the wrong things to fix this issue.

Thank you, tried this y myself and missed the privileged container part. Got it to work after watchimg your video

This is my first video of yours. The best video and I followed with you. Its crystal clear and flawless. All went up well and I have my nextcloud up and running. One of THE BEST video on Proxmox, Nextcloud and Cloudflare. You got a subscriber here. Keep it up and hope to see more videos like this from you.

great video

What a great video been wanting to this for ages but never found a full. Video. Very well explained. Well done.

Really good, thanks a lot!
