Using nextcloud to replace ftp server

[WqyJh]

Hi, everybody here!

I have lots of files on an ftp server (>3T), and I am tired of searching files on it. So I decided to replace it with nextcloud. But I don't know how to migrate those data to nextcloud.

The nextcloud server would be deployed just the same server as the ftp server, so the most convinent way is serving on the original data tree. I know that nextcloud only show files with records in database, so I've tried to copy an file to the data directory and insert an record in the table activity, with similar data with the default ones, but it just doesn't work.

The last record is what I insert and the psb.jpg just didn't show up.

If I want use an existing file directories as my data directory, which tables should I modified?

It is not really an issue for the bug tracker. Our forum is the right place to ask such questions (you can use your github account to login and then copy&paste your question): https://help.nextcloud.com
