Nextcloud is installed via a so-called “one-click installer”. The installation is done in the Plesk control panel as follows:
Requirement PHP 8.2
- Log in to your Plesk account.
- Go to “Websites & Domains” in the menu and select the “Dashboard” of the desired domain.
- Under “Files and databases” you will find the “Nextcloud” button – click on it.
- Select “Install” to start the automatic installation of Nextcloud.
- Now select the domain on which Nextcloud is to be installed.
- Assign a secure administrator password.
- By default, “nextcloud” is entered in the “Directory” field. You can delete this folder name if you want to use Nextcloud directly under the main domain (e.g. www.deinedomain.eu/nextcloud)
After installation, you can log in to Nextcloud.
To use Nextcloud, you need high-performance hosting (e.g. Hosting L or XL or WordPress Hosting Select) or your own server (vServer / dedicated server). Installation on smaller hosting packages is not recommended for performance reasons, as the resources provided are not sufficient for high-performance provision. This is due to the so-called LVE limits(more).
