Description
This VM is based on the same code as the original Nextcloud VM. In the same way as our other VMs, this also auto-updates to the latest version upon first boot when running the setup script. This VM is pre-installed with a 500 GB ZFS formatted drive for the data, which is mounted on a separate volume in the VM for easier management and backup. The file is in. OVA format for installation in VMware and VirtualBox. It can also be converted to run on other hypervisors. The file size is around 2-3 GB before it’s extracted. Please check the full setup instructions here.

I installed the Nextcloud VM using VMplayer and it worked great. I had the free version prior to this to be able to experiment with so I found the installation to be quite easy.
Well worth the money due to the ease and access if needed to an expert. Maybe we can encourage the creation of a VM for Discourse in the future? ?

Great job, installed the VM on my ESXi at home lab. Did the port opening on the firewall and started the install.
Now i have Nextcloud public and can use Talk as well.
Tough time for Telco not to miss the wlan video and phone features.
And best of all my wife copie foto and music from her mobile to her PC and vice versa without asking. Just kiding. But it works great.

Nice to have, good to work with it!
i needed two or three attempts to get this think work :-).
So read the manual and it will run on first try !
Nevertheless well engendered VM!!! and of course on top the features of nextcloud.
Rebuilded it for sha1 (ESX 6.0), 4GB on the guest, selected some tools, fixed IP and so on and used the LetsEncrypt Cert. Everything fine!

C’est vraiment du très bon travail, c’est facile à installer, l’image regorge d’options et convient aussi bien à un débutant qu’à un professionnel de l’informatique.
Nextcloud est comme Dropbox , installé sur un serveur c’est un cloud au top niveau.
Merci beaucoup

Great product and takes the pain out of creating it from scratch. I did have to install it again as it didn’t work first time after I added some modules during installation. I just accepted the default settings on second attempt and it worked perfectly. I added the modules I required after install. Strongly recommend going down this route. I had previously tried a vanilla install on top of Debian and a snap install via Ubuntu, both worked but this set up was a breeze.
