[Question]How to sync files on the same machine hosting Nextcloud with client? #218

Hello,

I recently upgraded Nextcloud server to 12.0.3 (manual upgrade, everything went fine; server runs on Debian stretch), but when I tried to use Nextcloud-2.3.3-beta-x86_64.AppImage (downloaded from https://download.nextcloud.com/desktop/prereleases/Linux/) to sync files from the server on the same machine as the server, I got the error

timeout trying to connect to nextcloud at https://cloud.MYDOMAIN.com/status.php

However if use a web browser and go to

https://cloud.MYDOMAIN.com/status.php

I can get something from status.php:

installed | true maintenance | false needsDbUpgrade | false version | "12.0.3.3" versionstring | "12.0.3" edition | "" productname | "Proudly powered by Debian"

So basically I want to work on a machine itself that hosts nextcloud. Can anyone point me to the solution to this problem?

Thanks, Yün

Figured it out! It was not a problem of nextcloud. The server generally does not resolve self IP if external DNS is used. Added localhost to server_name directive in nextcloud nginx config file; it fixed the problem. Thanks.
