I have NextCloud installed via Ubuntu Snap. But I want to take the docker route instead. Every “how to” only shows how to set it up with reverse proxy configuration. I need to be able to do this without it. Any help?

Update: Figured it out! Made a domain name in Cloudflare Tunnels that point to https://localhost:11000. Then on NextCloud aio domain verification, I put the domain name that I made.

    You should be able to just run the docker container and expose port 8080, then visit http://localhost:8080 to complete the setup. You won’t have SSL or anything though. If it still asks for domain name, maybe you can put in localhost.local ?

      Does not work. This comes up:

      “DNS config is not set for this domain or the domain is not a valid domain! (It was found to be set to ‘’)”

      Honestly don’t need SSL. And I will try that localhost.local when I get back to my server. Thanks.

        I don’t think localhost.local would resolve from inside nextcloud docker container. If that’s the case, just try localhost instead.

          Localhost definitely won’t work because I will get the error “Domain must contain at least one dot!”.

        There’s environment entry to disable domain check but it’ll not run as you must configure reverse proxy at least to get the certificate. I spent 3 hours yesterday until I gave up and removed it.

        It’s kinda misleading stating it can run locally with no reverse proxy without mentioning it’s necessary to complete the installation process.
