Step 1 - Install Nginx Webserver

The first step we will do in this nextcloud guide is to install the Nginx web server. We will be using the Nginx web server instead of Apache webserver.

Log in to the server and update the repository, then install the Nginx web server using the apt command as shown below.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install nginx -y

After the installation is complete, start the Nginx service and enable the service to launch every time at system boot using systemctl.

systemctl start nginx

systemctl enable nginx

The Nginx service is up and running, check it using the following command.

systemctl status nginx

As a result, the Nginx web server has been installed on Ubuntu 20.04.
