I'm installing NextCloud on Ubuntu-MATE using the instructions found here -
How to Install the Nextcloud Server on Ubuntu
I'm running into a bunch of problems starting with saving the nextcloud.conf file. I follow the directions and don't get an error message but when I look in the etc/Apache2/sites-available, it's not there.
Right now I get "apache2.service is not active, cannot reload." When I try to start the apache2 service. So now I'm stuck.
I do have a couple of fundamental questions.
1. When instructed to create and save a file, only once does it say WHERE to save the file and that's the nextcloud.conf file. The 2 scripts you create, it don't say where to save them or where to run them from. I suspect this may be the cause of my problems.
2. Are path references not needed in Linux? I see commands all the time that don't mention location at all. So how does the OS know where the objects in question are. (Not sure if "Objects" is the right word or now. Maybe files and folders would be more appropriate)
