nextcloud
Endless activation
I have installed NextCloudPi in the LXC Proxmox container. After installation, when I go to the page https://nextcloudpi.local/activate / the system suggests saving passwords and activating NextCloudPi . When I press "Activate", the message "NextCloudPi not yet initialized, trying again in a few seconds ..." is displayed and the circle turns endlessly.
I ran into the same issue trying to install as an LXC on Proxmox. I set it up with 1 cpu core, 1GiB ram and set it to run as a privileged container.
running journalctl -ef in the running container, I could see the following lines repeating endlessly.

Hello! same problem here, in my case the database is probably not running...
Proxmox LXC with "NextcloudPI_LXC_x86_v1.55.3.tar.gz", 2GB Ram / 2 cpu cores / 2 GB Swap, 8GB diskspace. "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" does not help. I just changed the default ports to 82 / 2443 / 4443 and set a new IP address in "/etc/systemd/network/eth0.network"

today still an issue with latest; NextcloudPi_LXC_x86_v1.55.3.tar.gz.
installed and pressing activate results in an error in ncp.log
Doctrine\DBAL\Exception: Failed to connect to the database: An exception occurred in the driver: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory in /var/www/nextcloud/lib/private/DB/Connection.php:233
Mentioned here also,
https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi/issues/1994
But I'm experiencing the same thing in Proxmox with LXC and "NextcloudPi_LXC_x86_v1.55.3.tar.gz", have not looked into logs and so on since I just wanted to test this out, will keep an eye on how this might progress.
Can confirm issue is still present in latest NextcloudPi_LXC_x86_v1.55.3.tar.gz
