I'm trying to migrate my Nextcloud instance to a kubernetes cluster. I've succesfully deployed a Nextcloud instance using openEBS-cStor storage. Before I can "kubectl cp" my old files to the cluster, I need to put Nextcloud in maintenance mode.

This is what I've tried so far:

  • Shell access to pod
  • Navigate to folder
  • Run OCC command to put next cloud in maintenance mode

These are the commands I used for the OCC way:

kubectl exec --stdin --tty -n nextcloud nextcloud-7ff9cf449d-rtlxh -- /bin/bash
su -c 'php occ maintenance:mode --on' www-data
# This account is currently not available.

Any tips on how to put Nextcloud in maintenance mode would be appreciated!

The su command fails because there is no shell associated with the www-data user.

What worked for me is explicitly specifying the shell in the su command:

su -s /bin/bash www-data -c "php occ maintenance:mode --on"
