[edit] Setup NFS

OPTIONAL: You can use the local disk if you prefer.

~$ sudo mount -t nfs ncwv-freenas01.r00tedvw.local:/mnt/pool_02/OwnCloud /opt/owncloud/data
~$ sudo chown -R apache:apache /opt/ownlcloud/
~$ echo "ncwv-freenas01.r00tedvw.local:/mnt/pool_02/OwnCloud /opt/owncloud/data nfs defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab

[edit] Configure OwnCloud using the GUI

~$ sudo systemctl start httpd

https://fqdn/owncloud

define the following:

• root user/pass
• data directory (I used /opt/owncloud/data)
• database user/pass/dbname/dbhost:port

[edit] Troubleshooting

If you have to reset the admin password like I did, there is a built in util for that.

~$ sudo -u apache /var/www/html/owncloud/occ user:resetpassword r00t
