    Always works great for me.

    I just run it (behind haproxy on a separate public host) in docker compose w/ a redis container and a hosted postgres instance.

    Automatically upgrade minor versions daily by pulling new images. Manually upgrade major versions by updating the compose file.

    Literally never had a problem in 4 years.

      I’m still too container stupid to understand the right way to do this. I’m running it in docker under kubernetes and sometimes I don’t update nextcloud for a long time then I do a container update and it’s all fucked because of incompatible php versions of some shit.

        I don’t remember much about how to use kubernetes but if you can specify a tag like nextcloud:28 instead of nextcloud:latest you should have a safer time with upgrades. Then make sure you always upgrade all the way before moving to a newer major version, this is crucial.

        There are varying degrees of version specificity available: https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/tags

        Make sure you’re periodically evaluating your site with https://scan.nextcloud.com/ and following all of the recommended best practices.

        Kubernetetes is crazy complex when comparing to docker-compose. It is built to solve scaling problems us self-hosters don’t have.

        First learn a few docker commands, set some environment variables, mount some volumes, publish a port. Then learn docker-compose.

        Tutorials are plenty, if those from docker.com still exist they’re likely still sufficient.
