It is an alternative to file hosting services like Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive. This platform enables you to store files, share documents, and facilitate team collaboration, all within a fully controlled environment. When you upload a file, ownCloud stores it in a specific directory on the server, while metadata, such as user information and access permissions, is stored in a database. You can access files through a browser, desktop app, or mobile device, with real-time synchronization ensuring data is always up to date. In this tutorial, we will guide you through installing ownCloud on Ubuntu 24.04.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69ec34c727928\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69ec34c727928\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-owncloud-on-ubuntu-24-04\/#Prerequisites\" >Prerequisites<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-owncloud-on-ubuntu-24-04\/#Step-1-Update-the-System\" >Step 1.

Since Ubuntu 24.04 ships with PHP 8.3 and ownCloud does not support PHP 8.x at the moment, we need to install PHP 7.4. We can utilize a third-party source, Ond\u0159ej Sur\u00fd&#8217;s PHP source, which provides access to both current and older PHP packages. Let&#8217;s execute the following commands to add the repository<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># apt install -y apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates wget \n# add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej\/php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>When prompted to add the PPA to your APT sources, hit ENTER.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>WARNING: add-apt-repository is broken with non-UTF-8 locales, see\nhttps:\/\/github.com\/oerdnj\/deb.sury.org\/issues\/56 for workaround:\n\n# LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej\/php\n More info: https:\/\/launchpad.net\/~ondrej\/+archive\/ubuntu\/php\nPress &#91;ENTER] to continue or Ctrl-c to cancel adding it.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s refresh the package index files on the system<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># apt update<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The necessary PPA on your system and the package index have been updated; we can now proceed with installing the required PHP version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># apt install php7.4-{fpm,xml,intl,common,json,curl,mbstring,mysql,gd,imagick,zip,opcache} bzip2<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-3-install-and-configure-nginx\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-3-Install-and-Configure-Nginx\"><\/span>Step 3.

Run the following command to install it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># apt -y install nginx<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon installation, Nginx will automatically run. It is also configured to start automatically upon reboot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s create an Nginx server block for the domain name you will use for accessing ownCloud. For example, we will use yourdomain.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># nano \/etc\/nginx\/conf.d\/owncloud.conf <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Insert the following into that file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>upstream owncloud {\n    server unix:\/var\/run\/php\/php7.4-fpm.sock;\n}\n\nserver {\n    listen 80;\n    server_name yourdomain.com;\n    root \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud;\n\n    location = \/robots.txt {\n        allow all;\n        log_not_found off;\n        access_log off;\n    }\n\n    client_max_body_size 512M;\n    fastcgi_buffers 64 4K;\n\n    gzip on;\n    gzip_vary on;\n    gzip_comp_level 4;\n    gzip_min_length 256;\n    gzip_proxied expired no-cache no-store private no_last_modified no_etag auth;\n    gzip_types application\/atom+xml application\/javascript application\/json application\/ld+json application\/manifest+json application\/rss+xml application\/vnd.geo+json application\/vnd.ms-fontobject application\/x-font-ttf application\/x-web-app-manifest+json application\/xhtml+xml application\/xml font\/opentype image\/bmp image\/svg+xml image\/x-icon text\/cache-manifest text\/css text\/plain text\/vcard text\/vnd.rim.location.xloc text\/vtt text\/x-component text\/x-cross-domain-policy;\n\n    location \/ {\n        rewrite ^ \/index.php;\n    }\n\n    location ~ ^\\\/(?:build|tests|config|lib|3rdparty|templates|data)\\\/ {\n        deny all;\n    }\n    location ~ ^\\\/(?:\\.|autotest|occ|issue|indie|db_|console) {\n        deny all;\n    }\n\n    location ~ ^\\\/(?:index|remote|public|cron|core\\\/ajax\\\/update|status|ocs\\\/v&#91;12]|updater\\\/.+|oc&#91;ms]-provider\\\/.+|.+\\\/richdocumentscode\\\/proxy)\\.php(?:$|\\\/) {\n        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\\.php)(\\\/.*|)$;\n        set $path_info $fastcgi_path_info;\n        try_files $fastcgi_script_name =404;\n        include fastcgi_params;\n        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;\n        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $path_info;\n        fastcgi_param modHeadersAvailable true;\n        fastcgi_param front_controller_active true;\n        fastcgi_pass owncloud;\n        fastcgi_intercept_errors on;\n        fastcgi_request_buffering off;\n    }\n\n    location ~ ^\\\/(?:updater|oc&#91;ms]-provider)(?:$|\\\/) {\n        try_files $uri\/ =404;\n        index index.php;\n    }\n\n    location ~ \\.(?:css|js|woff2?|svg|gif|map)$ {\n        try_files $uri \/index.php$request_uri;\n        add_header Cache-Control \"public, max-age=15778463\";\n        add_header Referrer-Policy \"no-referrer\" always;\n        add_header X-Content-Type-Options \"nosniff\" always;\n        add_header X-Download-Options \"noopen\" always;\n        add_header X-Frame-Options \"SAMEORIGIN\" always;\n        add_header X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies \"none\" always;\n        add_header X-Robots-Tag \"none\" always;\n        add_header X-XSS-Protection \"1; mode=block\" always;\n\n        access_log off;\n    }\n\n    location ~ \\.(?:png|html|ttf|ico|jpg|jpeg|bcmap|mp4|webm)$ {\n        try_files $uri \/index.php$request_uri;\n        access_log off;\n    }\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Save the file, then exit from the editor. To apply the changes, do not forget to restart nginx.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># systemctl restart nginx<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-install-mysql-server\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-4-Install-MySQL-Server\"><\/span>Step 4. Install MySQL Server<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the database engine, ownCloud supports MySQL 8.0+ or an equivalent MariaDB server, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and SQLite. In this step, we will install the MariaDB server from the default Ubuntu 24.04 repository. To install the MariaDB server, execute the command below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># apt install mysql-server<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>MariaDB should be up and running now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># systemctl status mysql<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The command above will return an output like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>\u25cf mysql.service - MySQL Community Server\n     Loaded: loaded (\/usr\/lib\/systemd\/system\/mysql.service; enabled; preset: enabled)\n     Active: active (running) since Sat 2025-11-08 11:29:56 UTC; 1min ago\n   Main PID: 8680 (mysqld)\n     Status: \"Server is operational\"\n      Tasks: 37 (limit: 4548)\n     Memory: 363.9M (peak: 378.1M)\n        CPU: 11.364s\n     CGroup: \/system.slice\/mysql.service\n             \u2514\u25008680 \/usr\/sbin\/mysqld\n\nNov 08 11:29:55 ubuntu24 systemd&#91;1]: Starting mysql.service - MySQL Community Server...\nNov 08 11:29:56 ubuntu24 systemd&#91;1]: Started mysql.service - MySQL Community Server.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-5-create-a-database\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-5-Create-a-Database\"><\/span>Step 5. Create a Database<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On Ubuntu 24.04, MariaDB will start automatically upon installation. Since the database server is up and running now, we can let&#8217;s log in to MySQL shell and create a database for our ownCloud website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># mysql<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once logged in to the MySQL shell, we can run the following commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">mysql&gt; CREATE DATABASE owncloud;<br>mysql&gt; CREATE USER 'owncloud'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'm0d1fyth15';<br>mysql&gt; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON owncloud.* TO 'owncloud'@'localhost';<br>mysql&gt; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;<br>mysql&gt; \\q<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to replace m0d1fyth15 with a stronger password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-6-download-owncloud\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-6-Download-ownCloud\"><\/span>Step 6. Download ownCloud<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We need to go to the ownCloud download page at https:\/\/download.owncloud.com\/server\/stable\/ to check and get the desired version to install. In this step, we will download the latest stable version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># mkdir \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\n# cd \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud\n# wget https:\/\/download.owncloud.com\/server\/stable\/owncloud-latest.tar.bz2\n# tar -xf owncloud-latest.tar.bz2 --strip-components 1<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The commands above will download and then extract the compressed file into the directory \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud. Now, let&#8217;s give the correct permissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code># chown -R www-data: \/var\/www\/html\/owncloud<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-7-install-owncloud\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-7-Install-ownCloud\"><\/span>Step 7.
