Tricks

Syncing Files

  • This very important in the self hosted world. How do we put and get files outside of the app itself.
  • This can easily be done though you need root access.
  • Use rsync or similar to sync or copy programs right into the directories.
  • Then you need to run an occ (OwnCloudCommand) program with php to rescan for files. Then it will add all the files to the database.

sudo -u www-data php /var/www/html/mir.next.msgvte/occ --verbose --unscanned files:scan --all
