![]() A biproduct of this commoditization is that the userbase becomes less experienced/familiar with the constituent parts… and that’s ceratinly a good description of me. Please reflect that the NextCloudPi project appears to be moving in the direction of bundleing multiple opensource utilities into a more shrink wrap deliverable to reduce the complexity and expand the userbase (one of nachoparkers objects I read somewhere). Paragraph 3 simply states that I was in a loop and asking if there were any suggestions.So that gives the various version numbers for a user perspective. Paragrpah 2 factually tells you what i did and shares that it is NextCloud12 " that had been “just downloaded”.Paragraph 1 is a complement to the Nextcloudpi project instigator,… he certainly deserves it.Sorry that the post came accross as a complaint, that certainly wasn’t the intention and I am struggling to see how it can be perceived as one. Your Feedback on using this forum vs github: I’d like to offer the following. After googling a “how-to”, I manually set the Date and Time correctly, rebooted and the problem was solved. I suspect this was causing the authentication process to fail somehow when trying to set up new users as the Pi admin. Solution The issue was that my Pi time and date were off by 9 hrs (even though I have set the Time zone correctly using raspi-config). Just wanted to update that I solved the problem and share some thoughts on your feedback I can log in and out as admin using the standard admin password but when it comes to doing any admin tasks, it is not accepting and allowing those tasks using the same password. The fact that I get no failure message when entering in the original admin password implies that it doesn’t find fault with it,… but it actually doesn’t do anothing other than reset the password box inviting another try. If I enter an incorrect password then a message pops up on the blue menu bar advising of failed authentication adn to try again. Unfortunately when I click “confirm”, it simply reverts to an empty box suggesting I try another password. The only user on the box is admin and thats the account I am logged in as, so thats the password I enter. Trying to do any admin tasks (change password, add a group) prompts for a password. ![]() ![]() Got it all up and running fairly easily but now find myself with same situation as many on this thread. Just downloaded and installed NextCloudPi which bundles NextCloud12 on a Raspberry Pi 3, (Very good experience and hats off to nachoparker for his efforts here! Thanks!). ![]()
