What you guys are hosting instead of Nextcloud? I'm sick of it. - eviltoast

I am hosting more than 10 services currently but only Nextcloud sends me errors periodically and only Nextcloud is super extremely painfully slow. I quit this sh*t. No more troubleshooting and optimization.

There are mainly 4 services in Nextcloud I’m using:

  • Files: as simple server for upload and download binaries
  • Calendar (with DAVx5): as sync server without web UI
  • Notes: simple note-taking
  • Network folder: mounted on Linux dolphin

Could you recommend me the alternatives for these? All services are supposed to be exposed by HTTPS, so authentication like login is needed. And I’ve tried note-taking apps like Joplin or trillium but couldn’t like it.

Thanks in advance.

      Sure:

      POSTGRES

version: '3.8'

    container_name: postgres

    environment:
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
      PGDATA: "/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata"
    volumes:

        source: ./data
        target: /var/lib/postgresql/data
      - type: volume

      REDIS

      ---
version: '3.8'
services:
  redis:
    image: redis:7.2-alpine
    command:
      - /data/redis.conf

    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: ./data
        target: /data

  redis-socket:
    name: redis-socket

      Here’s redis.conf, it took me a couple of tries to get it just right:

      # create a unix domain socket to listen on
unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis.sock
unixsocketperm 666
# protected-mode no
requirepass rrrrrrrrrrrrr

# how redis will evice old objects - least recently used

      The environment.txt file is hostnames, logins, passwords, etc…

      POSTGRES_DB=nextcloud

NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD=hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
REDIS_HOST=redis
REDIS_HOST_PORT=6379
REDIS_HOST_PASSWORD=rrrrrrrrrrrrr

      The zz-docker.conf file sets some process tuning and log format, some might not even be necessary:

      [global]
daemonize = no
error_log = /proc/self/fd/2
log_limit = 8192

[www]
access.log = /proc/self/fd/2
access.format = "%R - %u %t \"%m %r%Q%q\" %s %f %{mili}d %{kilo}M %C%%"
catch_workers_output = yes
decorate_workers_output = no
clear_env = no

user = www-data
group = www-data

listen = 9000
listen = /var/www/html/.fpm-sock
listen.owner = www-data
listen.group = www-data
listen.mode = 0666
listen.backlog = 512

pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 16
pm.start_servers = 6
pm.min_spare_servers = 4
pm.max_spare_servers = 6
pm.process_idle_timeout = 30s;
pm.max_requests = 512

      The opcache_cli.conf file has a single line:

      opcache.enable_cli=1

      I don’t remember why it’s there but it’s working so I’m not touching it :-D

      Good luck :-)
