Comments on How to install ownCloud 8 on Debian 8 (Jessie)

I gave this a try the other week, its good as a basic file sync but the addons available dont currenty work for version 8. I was looking to set up a Google Drive experience where There is a full feature document editor as I only use GDrive for upading certain docs. Apart from the lack of workable addons, its a good and easy to use system Thanks Christopher Shaw

Something is different. Changed only the 'owncloud@localhost' to 'somethingelse@localhost' and get "MySQL/MariaDB username password not valid. (I suspect something in Apache config is different.) Fresh Jessie install (basic system tools and ssh server), nothing else but owncloud.

Give this man a cookie! Works like a charm :D

Still no luck. Fresh install. Issue commands on a separate machine after SSH into server, and a SU to be root.

MySQL commands all accepted, created the /var/owncloud directory, changed permissions, ......

Still on separate machine I go to http://192.168.1.x/owncloud and enter everything but get "Username and/or password not valid. You need to enter either an existing account or the administrator."

Have tried SQL root / password, putting passwords in quotes (').

Have tried opening a browser on the owncloud server and same error. Using Mac, tried a Windows, Safari, Chrome.

(Long ago I successfully installed version 6 or 7 on Debian 7)

Can you suggest logs to check? or .....

OK, its works. I think the administrative login needs to be an existing user on the owncloud server. (duh) With the passwords displayed, failure, with just the dots showing, it worked. Or maybe I just can't read or type :)

Good article. Works fine in debian 8 template of proxmox 4.

Bom dia, no servidor consigo acessar normalmente, mas em um cliente está dando a seguinte msg de erro;

Você está acessando o servidor a partir de um domínio não confiável, por favor, contate o administrador. Se você é um administrador desta instância, configurre o "trusted_domain" em config/config.php. Um exemplo de configuração é fornecido em config/config.sample.php. 

Dependendo da configuração, como administrador, você também pode ser capaz de usar o botão abaixo para confiar neste domínio.
