I am attempting to follow this to install nextcloud 15 on fedora 29. I get to the step where I change the db to mariadb, but it doesnt seem to want to let me. earlier in the process, I changed ncuser and ncuserpassword, but I cant get it to take them. Any suggestions?

@Donahue without having gone through this process myself, but based on the guide you changed the database credentials.
Not the login credentials.
Attempt the default username and password.

I have used both the ncuserpassword and the somesecurepassword, but all combinations did not work.

Test with the command line utility to ensure that MariaDB is set up properly before you try to test it with the actual app.
The CLI tool is called simply mysql
mysql nextcloud -uncadmin -p -

Create the Nextcloud database and then secure the mariadb install.
Change ncuser, ncuserpassword, and somesecurepassword to something private.
#Create a database for nextcloud and a user to access it.
mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE nextcloud;"
mysql -e "CREATE USER 'ncuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'ncuserpassword';"
mysql -e "GRANT ALL ON nextcloud.* TO 'ncuser'@'localhost';"
mysql -e "FLUSH PRIVILEGES;"#Secure mariadb. These commands do what mysql_secure_installation does interactively
mysql -e "UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('somesecurepassword') WHERE User='root';"
mysql -e "DELETE FROM mysql.user WHERE User='root' AND Host NOT IN ('localhost', '127.0.0.1', '::1');"
mysql -e "DELETE FROM mysql.user WHERE User='';"
mysql -e "DROP DATABASE test;"
mysql -e "FLUSH PRIVILEGES;"Doesn't this step set the mysql password, as somesecurepassword?

ncuserpassword
No, it sets it as...
ncuserpassword
-
@Donahue said in Install Nextcloud 13.0.0 on Fedora 27:
somesecurepassword
Is what it sets for the root user, which you are not using any longer.

No, it sets it as...
ncuserpassword
still fails. I try both nsuserpassword and somesecurepassword, and both fail

@Donahue are you attempting to login as
ncuserorncuser@localhostwithncuserpasswordas the password? -

Then that is the issue, basic username / password issues with the database. No issue with NextCloud yet, as NC has to use a working username / password to use the database. So make a new database user first, and test it, then when it works, then move on to configuring NC.

Jared's example is with ncuser. But you are trying to use ncadmin. Did you change Jared's script, or is that a typo?

Then you need to consistently use the change. -uncuser not -uncadmin since ncuser doesn't exist in your system.

no go. ncuser does not exist, I am just using here as a reference to that place in the script where I changed it (following the tutorial)

Directly from the CLI to login to the database? If it doesn't work then your database permissions may be messed up.
