Etherpad in Nextcloud (by Ownpad)

Hi, I want to integrate my Etherpad in my Nextcloud like it is discribed here:

Worked well, but I have to change the mime types in in the mimetypemapping.json file (at Nextcloud level).

otetard/ownpad/blob/master/README.md#mimetype-detection

# Ownpad — Etherpad and Ethercalc _links_ in Nextcloud

Ownpad is a Nextcloud application that allows to create and open
Etherpad and Ethercalc documents. This application requires to have
access to an instance of Etherpad and/or Ethercalc to work properly.

Note that the documents are only stored with your Etherpad/Ethercalc
service provider; no copy is kept on Nextcloud. As documents are
created this way Nextcloud is not responsible for the documents
security, e.g. anyone with access to the Etherpad/Ethercalc service
can access your document.

## Configuration

In order to make Ownpad work, go to the configuration panel (Settings /
Admininstration / Additional Settings) and fill in the necessary data
within the “Ownpad (collaborative documents)” section.

**Set a Etherpad Host:**  
To be able to process the document, a must configure a Host. Additional public host provider [more public Host-Provider](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/wiki/Sites-that-run-Etherpad-Lite)

This file has been truncated. show original

My problem is that I can’t find that file mimetypemapping.json
May anybody please help?

kind regards

Hi,

The README.md you quoted says:

To proceed, just copy /resources/config/mimetypemapping.dist.json to /config/mimetypemapping.json (in the config/ folder at Nextcloud’s root directory; the file should be stored next to the config.php file). Afterwards add the two following lines just after the “_comment” lines.

That would do in a setup not using docker. In case you you use the Nextcloud app in UCS you will find the original file inside the container

# univention-app shell nextcloud ls /var/www/html/resources/config/
ca-bundle.crt
mimetypealiases.dist.json
mimetypemapping.dist.json

I’d also have a look at the discussions here regarding the persistent changes of the config.php for Nextcloud (hint: /var/lib/univention-appcenter/apps/nextcloud/data/integration/config).

hth,

Dirk
