[Solved] Can't see owncloud interface

Hi everybody again,
here I am with some other newby’s issues.
I’m trying to install Owncloud, to try to create a NAS.
I followed the instructions posted here https://dietpi.com/docs/software/cloud/#owncloud and the software installation went good (using ssh).
After that, I tried to connect through the browser (using IP/owncloud), but it give me this error:

Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.51 (Raspbian) Server at 192.168.1.15 Port 80

I’m not sure the is a sort of relation but, If I try to reach the pi through the browser it opens the Apache2 Debian Default Page.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks

getting the default Apache page while entering IP only, is totally fine. It shows the web server themselves is working fine.

can you share following

ls -la /var/www

Here the answer:

 root@DietPi:~# ls -la /var/www
total 136
drwxr-xr-x  4 root     root      4096 Dec  2 21:05 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 root     root      4096 Nov 19 21:16 ..

-rw-r--r--  1 root     root        20 Dec  2 21:03 phpinfo.php
root@DietPi:~#

Is it ok?
Just another info: in this moment I’m connecting through ssh from outside the pi network, using a ddns domain Name (no-ip provider). I’m not sure this can affect the command you are suggesting

ok owncloud folder is available in web server root. Let’s have a look to owncloud folder

ls -la /var/www/owncloud/

Can you share Apache config as well

cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

IP 192.168.1.15 is the address of your DietPi device?
And opening http://192.168.1.15/owncloud in browser doesn’t work?

This is the first command

And this is the second

 root@DietPi:~# cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# This is the main Apache server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/ for detailed information about
# the directives and /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian about Debian specific
# hints.
#
#
# Summary of how the Apache 2 configuration works in Debian:
# The Apache 2 web server configuration in Debian is quite different to
# upstream's suggested way to configure the web server. This is because Debian's
# default Apache2 installation attempts to make adding and removing modules,
# virtual hosts, and extra configuration directives as flexible as possible, in
# order to make automating the changes and administering the server as easy as
# possible.

# It is split into several files forming the configuration hierarchy outlined
# below, all located in the /etc/apache2/ directory:
#
#       /etc/apache2/
#       |-- apache2.conf
#       |       `--  ports.conf
#       |-- mods-enabled
#       |       |-- *.load
#       |       `-- *.conf
#       |-- conf-enabled
#       |       `-- *.conf
#       `-- sites-enabled
#               `-- *.conf
#
#
# * apache2.conf is the main configuration file (this file). It puts the pieces
#   together by including all remaining configuration files when starting up the
#   web server.
#
# * ports.conf is always included from the main configuration file. It is
#   supposed to determine listening ports for incoming connections which can be
#   customized anytime.
#
# * Configuration files in the mods-enabled/, conf-enabled/ and sites-enabled/
#   directories contain particular configuration snippets which manage modules,
#   global configuration fragments, or virtual host configurations,
#   respectively.
#
#   They are activated by symlinking available configuration files from their
#   respective *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed by using our
#   helpers a2enmod/a2dismod, a2ensite/a2dissite and a2enconf/a2disconf. See
#   their respective man pages for detailed information.
#
# * The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of environment variables, in
#   the default configuration, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with
#   /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl. Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not
#   work with the default configuration.


# Global configuration
#

#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.

# at <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#mutex>);
# you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

# identification number when it starts.

#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300

#
# KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than
# one request per connection). Set to "Off" to deactivate.
#
KeepAlive On

#
# MaxKeepAliveRequests: The maximum number of requests to allow
# during a persistent connection. Set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount.
# We recommend you leave this number high, for maximum performance.
#
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100

#
# KeepAliveTimeout: Number of seconds to wait for the next request from the
# same client on the same connection.
#
KeepAliveTimeout 5

# The default is off because it'd be overall better for the net if people
# had to knowingly turn this feature on, since enabling it means that
# each client request will result in AT LEAST one lookup request to the
# nameserver.
#
HostnameLookups Off

# ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
# If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a <VirtualHost>
# container, error messages relating to that virtual host will be
# logged here.  If you *do* define an error logfile for a <VirtualHost>
# container, that host's errors will be logged there and not here.

# LogLevel: Control the severity of messages logged to the error_log.

I confirm that 192.168.1.15 is my pi address and when I try to reach the owncloud from the browser nothing happens…

ok how did you install Apache? This is not the default DietPi configuration file we use

https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/blob/master/.conf/dps_83/apache2.conf

Honestly, I don’t remember to have installed it.
Could be that It has installed when I installed LLSP and/or LLMP?
Do you think the owncloud problem could be related to the wrong Apache configuration?
How can I fix this, then?

Let’s check what you have installed

You have 2 web server installed conflicting each other. Apache seems to be installed manually by yourself and Lighttpd which was installed by DietPi due to owncloud install. If not needed I would recommend to purge Apache.

Thanks Joulinar , as always precious :wink: .
How can I purge it without damaging something else?
Which is the right command?

to remove Apache

apt purge apache2

try to start Lighttpd now

systemctl restart lighttpd.service

Great Joulinar !!
Again problem solved.
Now I can see the owncloud web interface :muscle:

ok, hope there was no other application relying on Apache2. At least there was a reason to have it installed in past.

I’m really trying to learn with this pi. So I’m quite sure it was installed without a specific reason.
Thanks again

A post was split to a new topic: Owncloud not reachable anymore
