I set up NextCloud and the requisite reverse proxy following SpaceInvader One's guide (he is a saint among men) and I've run into a problem with remote access that I do not think I can fix.  Hopefully someone here can prove me wrong.

 

I can not set up the SSL cert/reverse proxy.  My ISP blocks port 80 inbound.

 

From what I understand, that is how you prevent the whole "access through untrusted domain" thing.

 

Is there a method of generating the SSL cert that doesn't rely on port 80?  Am I doing something else wrong?  (At 15:14, that's similar to the error I get.)  Is there a way to bypass the whole "untrusted domain" thing entirely?  I'm just looking for a way to get this to work as, without remote access, NextCloud is pretty useless.

 

I'm open to any ideas.  Thank you all.  Best tech forum ever!

For anyone else having trouble with this, when it's asking for a trusted domain, it's the domain you GO TO to access NextCloud...not where you're trying to access FROM.

 

So, just go to /config/www/nextcloud/config and add your domain to the config.php as described here.  Much easier than I originally thought.

WOW, thanks for this, I just spent the last two hours looking for this solution.

Awesome.  Glad it was a help.

Where is this /config/www/nextcloud/config?  On the server? On my desktop or laptop accessing it? On the nextcloud app on my desktp/laptop or Chrome? 

Ok so for the next guy looking.  When nextcloud's website says to go to the config/config.php it's located on your server under:

 

appdata>nextcloud>www>nextcloud>config>config.php

 

 

THANKS! 
For sharing the solution

I'm kind of embarrassed to ask this but I still can't figure out what to do in the config file. I've located the file but I'm not sure if I should be adjusting all of the info or just lines 1 and 2. I'm not even sure what to put in 3. Can someone break down what I should be adjusting and to what? Also, do I just copy paste everything at the bottom of the page? Thank you in advance and I'm sorry if this is an annoying question.
