    Hi,
    since i haven't found working code-snippets to get it working, i'll post mine here.
    Add a new website and add to options:
    in php.ini
    Code:
    memory_limit = 8G
    upload_max_filesize=15G
    post_max_size=15G
    max_execution_time = 3600
    max_input_time = 3600
    opcache.enable_cli=1
    opcache.save_comments=1
    opcache.revalidate_freq=60
    opcache.validate_timestamps = 0
    opcache.interned_strings_buffer=256
    opcache.memory_consumption=256
    opcache.jit = 1255
    opcache.jit_buffer_size = 128
    output_buffering=0
    and the nginx-directive:
    Code:
    # set max upload size and increase upload timeout:
    client_max_body_size 2G;
    client_body_timeout 1800s;
    fastcgi_buffers 64 4K;
    
    location ~ \.php$ { ##delete##
    }
    location @php { ##delete##
    }
    location ~ /\. { ##delete##
    }

    add a ftp-user
    add a database
    add a database user and link with the database
    upload setup-nextcloud.php
    hit http:// or https:// nextcloud.your.domain/setup-nextcloud.php

    and there you go
    please post comments if there are errors/enhancements
