## 6. Infrastructure Architecture
### Management Services Strategy (Completed Feb 9, 2026)
**Philosophy:** "Backend on Command Center, Frontend on Ghost, Money on Billing, Games on Dedis, Control on Panel"
**VPS Tier (Management):**
- Command Center: Gitea, Uptime Kuma, Automation (backend tools)
- Ghost VPS: MkDocs, Wiki.js x2, NextCloud (public-facing services)
- Billing VPS: Paymenter only (financial isolation)
- Panel VPS: Pterodactyl Panel only (control plane)
**Dedicated Tier (Performance):**
- TX1 Dallas: Game servers ONLY
- NC1 Charlotte: Game servers ONLY
**Rationale:**
- VPS = plug-and-play networking, easy SSL, low maintenance
- Dedicated = performance for game servers, massive RAM/CPU
- Clear separation of concerns
- Optimal use of existing infrastructure ($0 additional cost)

- Admin: mkrause612 / FireFrost2026Admin
- Database: PostgreSQL (NOT MySQL/MariaDB by default)
- Database details:
- User: nextcloud
- Password: FrostFire2026Cloud
- Database: nextcloud
- Host: localhost:5432
### 7. Permissions
```bash
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/nextcloud
find /var/www/nextcloud -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
find /var/www/nextcloud -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;
chmod 770 /var/www/nextcloud/data
chmod -R 770 /var/www/nextcloud/apps
```

## Challenges Encountered
### 1. PostgreSQL Not Supported (Initial)
**Error:** "Database <pgsql> is not supported"
**Solution:** Install php8.3-pgsql module
**Command:** `apt install -y php8.3-pgsql`
### 2. Directory Index Forbidden (403)
**Error:** "directory index of /var/www/nextcloud/apps/dashboard/ is forbidden"
**Root Cause:** Nginx `try_files $uri $uri/` attempted directory listing
**Solution:** Remove `$uri/` from location blocks
### 3. Redirect Loops
**Error:** "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS"
**Root Cause:** Dashboard app + custom redirects
**Solution:** Temporarily disable dashboard, fix Nginx routing
### 4. Browser Cache Issues
**Error:** Stuck on /apps/dashboard even after fixes
**Solution:** Clear browser cookies/cache, use incognito mode
---
## Verification
```bash
# Test HTTPS
curl -I https://downloads.firefrostgaming.com
# Check permissions
ls -la /var/www/nextcloud
# Verify PostgreSQL connection
sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ config:system:get dbtype
# Check trusted domains
sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ config:system:get trusted_domains
```
**Expected Results:**
- HTTP/2 200 response
- All files owned by www-data
- dbtype: pgsql
- trusted_domains includes downloads.firefrostgaming.com
---
## Post-Installation Configuration
### Trusted Domains
```bash
sudo -u www-data php occ config:system:set trusted_domains 0 \
--value="downloads.firefrostgaming.com"
sudo -u www-data php occ config:system:set overwrite.cli.url \
--value="https://downloads.firefrostgaming.com"
sudo -u www-data php occ config:system:set overwriteprotocol \
--value="https"
```
### Disable Dashboard (if needed)
```bash
sudo -u www-data php occ app:disable dashboard
```
### Maintenance Mode
```bash
sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:mode --off
```

## Integration with Subscriber System
**Purpose:** World download access for $5+ subscribers
**Workflow (Manual Phase 1):**
1. Subscriber pays via Paymenter
2. Manual NextCloud account creation
3. Email credentials to subscriber
4. Grant access to world backup folders
**Future (Phase 2):**
- Paymenter webhook triggers automatic account creation
- Automated credential emails
- Automated folder permission grants
**Future (Phase 3):**
- SSO/OAuth integration across all services
- Real-time subscription validation
---
## Maintenance
**Updates:**
```bash
sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/updater/updater.phar
```
**Backups:**
- Database: pg_dump nextcloud
- Files: /var/www/nextcloud/data/
**Monitoring:**
- Added to Uptime Kuma (pending)
- Check via https://downloads.firefrostgaming.com/login
---
## Key Learnings
1. **PostgreSQL requires php-pgsql module** - not installed by default
2. **Nginx directory listing must be disabled** for NextCloud routing
3. **ALTER DATABASE OWNER critical** for proper permissions
4. **Browser cache can persist** after server fixes
5. **Dashboard app can conflict** with initial setup
6. **Web installation easier** than CLI for complex configs
---
## Files Modified
**Nginx:**
- `/etc/nginx/sites-available/downloads.firefrostgaming.com`
**NextCloud:**
- `/var/www/nextcloud/config/config.php` (auto-generated)
**SSL:**
- `/etc/letsencrypt/live/downloads.firefrostgaming.com/`
---
## Success Criteria
- ✅ HTTPS working (HTTP/2 200)
- ✅ Web interface accessible
- ✅ PostgreSQL connection stable
- ✅ File upload/download functional
- ✅ SSL certificate valid (expires May 11, 2026)
- ✅ Permissions locked down
- ✅ No 403 or redirect errors
