Nextcloud fpm fails to initialize database on clean install

[djakupovic]

Hi,

I tried my best to find the issue, but no success. I also analyzed the Dockerfile in the Nextcloud image as well the php base image. The apache image works flawlessly. I tried nginx and caddy as web server for npm but both with same error. I tried MariaDB and Postgres with the same error. I run the docker compose on docker for windows on wsl2

Issue:
I get this error after the login mask for initial installation after I enter the initial admin credentials:
There is no table with name "oc_nas.oc_comments" in the schema.

If I try again I get this:
Insufficient privilege: 7 ERROR: permission denied for table oc_migrations

Postgres log says this:
ERROR: permission denied for table oc_migrations
2024-03-25 10:21:59.138 CET [91] STATEMENT: SELECT "version" FROM "oc_migrations" WHERE "app" = $1 ORDER BY "version" ASC

I also logged the Postgres queries executed by Nextcloud and it hits to this error.
I also found this:
https://help.nextcloud.com/t/permission-denied-for-table-oc-migrations-on-startup/185597 --> did not help
and this:
nextcloud/helm#436 --> they have the same error but with the helm chart

What I also tried:
php occ maintenance:install
--database='pgsql' --database-host='postgres' --database-name='nextcloud'
--database-user='nextcloud' --database-pass='nextcloud'
--admin-user='nextcloud' --admin-pass='nextcloud'

And I hit the same error

I also tried to set the permissions manually with PSQL, but still no success.

I also tried to set the ADMIN ENV variables that it creates the initial user on first start but fails on the same error

Here is the docker compose file I created:

I see a mix of Windows volumes and Linux volumes in the same compose file. On WSL2 the path to C:\ is /mnt/c/. Can you please fix your volumes and try again ? I am using WSL2 to test most of the changes or generic nextcloud experiments and never had any issues in all variants.

EDIT: i just ran your setup without the volumes and it gave me no errors.

Edit2: You are also probably missing some configs on WSL2.

Add this to /etc/wsl.conf

[automount]
root = /mnt
options = "metadata"

Then open cmd as admin and type wsl --shutdown (or reboot your PC). Then reopen wsl, restart docker and it should be fine. You can google around how to make docker service autostart on wsl startup.
