Install OnlyOffice Docs with Nextcloud on the same Ubuntu Server

The above referenced article containing the detailed installation and configuration instructions appears on InstallConfig.com.  Following is the preface summary:  

This Article applies to installing OnlyOffice docs on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS along side of NextCloud 27.0.0 with NextCloud being served via Apache2 webserver with SSL on port 443 and OnlyOffice being hosted from Nginx webserver on non-standard port 81, plus Apache2 being configured to proxy the OnlyOffice app from port 81 on Nginx to port 80 on Apache2 (and eventually port 443 on Apache2). Both the NextCloud Apache Virtual Host and the OnlyOffice Apache Virtual Host configurations will each have letsencrypt SSL certificates for their respective domains or subdomains, thus generating a separate Apache virtual host SSL.conf file for each subdomain which shall each be served by Apache on TCP Port 443. Nginx merely hosts and serves the OnlyOffice application (the OnlyOffice app) via TCP port 81 and does not need to operate with encryption and decryption via SSL certificates for the following reasons. With the Apache virtual host accessing the Nginx-hosted OnlyOffice App on localhost at port 81 and “proxying” OnlyOffice to the internet through Apache on port 443 with SSL certificate configured on the Apache virtual host ssl.conf configured for the separate OnlyOffice domain (or subdomain), there is no need to obtain an SSL certificate to bind on Nginx.

This article assumes that the apache2 webserver, php 8.1, MySQL, and NextCloud are properly installed, configured and enabled.

Adding Strict Transport Security Response Header in IIS

Make sure the web.config file in the root directory of your website is not set to read only on the properties page for that file.

Open Internet Information Services Manger.  Select the website where you want to add this Strict-Transport-Security response header.  Double click and select the Icon for HTTP Response Headers.

In HTTP Response Headers window, click on Add… on the right pane and type in Strict-Transport-Security for Name and max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload for Value and click OK. The max-age value 63072000 is the number of seconds for the duration of two years. You need to enter a value of at least one year.

Disable xmlrpc.php in WordPress

What Is Xmlrpc.php in WordPress and Why You Should Disable It

Last Updated on: May 28th, 2018

Simply navigate to the Plugins › Add New section from within your WordPress dashboard. Search for Disable XML-RPC and install the plugin .

If you’d want to only turn certain elements of XML-RPC off, but still allow certain plugins and features to work, then use the following plugins instead:

  • Stop XML-RPC Attack. This plugin will stop all XML-RPC attacks, but it’ll continue to allow plugins like Jetpack, and other automatic tools and plugins to retain access to the xmlrpc.php file.
  • Control XML-RPC Publishing. This allows you to retain control and use over the remote publishing option afforded by xmlrpc.php.
