Hey,

it looks to me that this:

doesn’t match to the following from your pasted config.php:

    "ownCloud version": "10.1.0.4",

Maybe you could update to the latest 10.2.1 version first and try again afterwards?

Hi Tom,

While I was writing this post, I just made the update from version 10.1.0.4 to 10.2.1.4.
so the problem exists in both versions.

Hey,

maybe this asked but omitted information within the partly filled out template could give you some pointers about your issue?

#### Web server error log
```
Insert your webserver log here
```

#### ownCloud log (data/owncloud.log)
```
Insert your ownCloud log here
```

I have also seen the following in the pasted config.php:

"server SAPI": "cgi-fcgi",

I’m not sure if this is relevant but from what i have read in the past ownCloud only supports Apache with mod_php officially:

https://doc.owncloud.org/server/10.2/admin_manual/installation/system_requirements.html#officially-supported-environments

and lists nginx with php-fpm as an alternative but unsupported option:

https://doc.owncloud.org/server/10.2/admin_manual/installation/system_requirements.html#alternative-but-unsupported-options

Personally i’m using the alternative option with nginx and php-fpm and haven’t found any issues with that setup yet.
