Please check the permissions of the config folder and post a ls -lah result. Also we don't officially support the ebuild.

```
$ ls -lah config/

drwxr-xr-x 15 nginx nginx 4.0K Dec 9 17:15 ..

-rw-rw-r-- 1 nginx nginx 41K Dec 9 17:15 config.sample.php
-rw-rw-r-- 1 nginx nginx 225 Dec 9 17:15 .htaccess

@perfect7gentleman As the config.php is empty: simply delete it. Then run the setup via web browser and everything should work, because the folder has the correct permissions.

Please ask for help in the forums: https://help.nextcloud.com/ because this is not a bug in the software itself with with the setup process of this package.

Thanks :)

@perfect7gentleman What is the user the webserver is running with?

[perfect7gentleman]

nginx.
Everything worked before that update to php_7.1. I've updated packages to php_7.1 and nextcloud_10.0.1 said that it doesn't support php_7.1, and i updated nexcloud to 11rc1 manually as before i migrated from owncloud to nextcloud.

[MorrisJobke]

@LukasReschke Haven't you said, that you tested the PHP 7.1? Could it be caused by a tiny change in PHP 7.1 APIs?

[perfect7gentleman]

sorry, my fault, i've forgotten to modify setting for php_7.1

[EddieOne]

You are the worst @perfect7gentleman
