I got this running for quite some time now, and feel confident that the installation method is good enough for me to publish it on my personal Wiki... if i can remember how i did ;-)
The advantages of having NextCloud online as a Virtual Host under the Web Station is that it will be shutdown and started up automagically together with the rest of all your Synology services when your Synology NAS needs the uptime to be reset ;-)
Rough plan:
- Create a Virtual Host in the Web Station application.
- Configure it so the requirements are fulfilled.
- Create an empty database including a user with full rights over this database (and ONLY for this database) in the MariaDB application.
- Download the latest release of the NextCloud server software.
- Unpack it and upload to the root folder of the Virtual Host you created in step 1.
- Open the root URL of the Virtual Host you created in step 1 in your favorite web browser (FireFox).
- Do the web-based installation using the MariaDB and database user you created in step 3.
- Enjoy your new private Cloud Storage.
