I installed this today and hit a couple of problems.
1. It timed out after I got the setup done. (Solution - just wait 5 minutes)
When I entered the admin name & password, all the database details, it ran and then timed out. While googling for a solution it was still running behind the scenes, and by the time I came back to it (5 minutes or so) loading the web page gave me a login screen. It seems that something in the webserver config is timing out if the initial set up is slow. I didn't dig any deeper, to be fair.
2. It's very slow. (Solution - install Redis)
I had about 4GB of data to sync, and it was estimating about 24 hours or more to complete the upload. I installed the official Redis docker image from Community Applications (I accepted the defaults) and then once that was running I made changes to /mnt/user/appdata/nextcloud/www/nextcloud/config/config.php as follows, to enable using it:
(Based on https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/18/admin_manual/configuration_server/caching_configuration.html )
'memcache.distributed' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis', 'redis' => [ 'host' => 'redis', 'port' => 6379, ], 'memcache.locking' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
After a reboot, it's down to under an hour to sync. From Googling, if you have a lot of small files it can be slow no matter what you do, but I'll take a twenty-fold speed increase any day!
I hope this helps a few other people, who might have the same issues. I didn't find any discussion of them on this thread so far.

I am having a lot of problems with this container - I followed the instructions linked in the first page here, and SpaceInvaderOne's guide.
Firstly when I open the WebUI the certificate is flagged as invalid, and Chrome 80 won't let me just accept it and connect anyway. Safari does, but then when I enter the details to set up admin, MariaDB login details etc it times out. I get a 'gateway timeout' error.
Nothing shows up in the log files, but I can see that it has created folders for the admin user, so I presume it's trying and failing to do something...
Google hasn't helped me, so I suspect I'm doing something wrong - but I can't even figure out how to find out what!
Any ideas?
Cheers!

This is a great tool, thanks very much!
It does create a very minor problem though - when I run the 'Fix Common Problems' plugin I get this error reported:
The following directories exist with similar names, only differing by the 'case' which will play havoc with Windows / SMB access. Windows does NOT support folder names only differing by their case and strange results will happen should you attempt to manipulate the folders or files /mnt/user/appdata/macinabox /mnt/user/appdata/MacinaBox
Now obviously I'm not sharing appdata over SMB - but would it be possible to update the container to only create one or other of these, so the 'Common Problems' plugin stops complaining?
Thanks!

Clarify this is an additional fix, not the only one.
I've done this and it wasn't enough. I also changed this file, part of the plugin itself (and the one that's actually complaining):
I've added this line, just below the top:
So the file now looks like this:
That might be too large, but I believe PHP won't allocate that much memory unless it needs it...
It works - but it doesn't survive a reboot either, unfortunately.
Maybe @bonienl can incorporate a version of this into the next release of the plugin?
