Lao Zuo tried to build a Seafile self built network disk in Linux VPS a few days ago. A friend left a message saying that Nextcloud is also good for use. In any case, whether Nextcloud, Seafile or Owncloud has its favorite users, which may not be very different in functions, but it may be because of the program UI or client support experience that you choose A or B.
Previously, the company used OwnCloud for team sharing online disks, which has always been OK, mainly due to habits. Lao Zuo is going to read this article Nextcloud network disk Experience in the installation and use process to see if there are any differences, or even some highlights, or it may change my preference for choosing this online storage program.
Nextcloud network disk Similar to the advantages of Owncloud, it is similar to the CMS program setup. You can download the program directly to the deployed Web environment site, and then install it through the step wizard. Let's have a look.
Lao Zuo has also shared other articles related to self built online disks before:
1、 Use Pydio to build powerful free online disks and document storage programs
2、 One click quick self built installation of Seafile to build private cloud disk storage
3、 Use Vultr one click deployment function to install ownCloud private cloud storage site
First, preparations for installing the Nextcloud network disk
1. Server configuration WEB environment
Here we can use the panel or one click package or our own compilation environment according to our own preferences, as long as you like. PHP 5.6.0 or higher is required.
2. Nextcloud program download
Nextcloud is similar to our common CMS website program. It provides a complete installation package:
https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/nextcloud-12.0.0.zip
The quick installation boot file is also provided:
https://download.nextcloud.com/server/installer/setup-nextcloud.php
According to our preference, we will put it in the directory of the deployment website for installation. Here Lao Zuo uses the following quick boot installation method, because it is troublesome to download tens of megabytes of complete packages.
Second, the installation process of the Nextcloud self built network disk
Enter the boot installation interface, then continue.
Yoxi, there is a problem here. The PHP version installed here is too low. If the PHP 5.6+version is required, I will continue to work on the environment.
After changing the PHP version again, you can continue. Here, you need to select the installation directory. If you enter ".", you can install to the current directory, or create a separate directory.
Set the administrator user and password. By default, SQLIET database is installed. We can also select MYSQL database.
Here we have installed NextCloud.
Third, Nextcloud client support
The Nextcloud network disk also supports PC and mobile terminals. Here Laozuo downloads a desktop client to install it.
Enter our website for creating NextCloud. Then enter the user name and password.
It seems that there is no problem with the link. Basically, the NEXTCLOUD cloud disk is installed.
In conclusion, from the interface, Lao Zuo personally thinks it is not as good as Seafile, but the installation process of NextCloud seems to be simpler, which depends on our personal preferences when we actually use it.
