Unfortunately, despite an outstanding PR for over two months that would yield a fully-installed and active Nextcloud installation, iX hasn't bothered to actually finish the plugin. However, they have taken the database credentials they used to give you in the pop-up and moved them into a file within the jail called something like /PLUGIN_INFO. See also https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/nextcloud-reinstall-fails-database-password.78057/ and https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/do-the-devs-actually-update-the-plugins.77826/.

Um I think the plugin is currently broken. I installed by hand from one of the guides but there is the scripted install option detailed in a thread

@danb35 What's the ticket number for the broken plugin?

@danb35 What's the ticket number for the broken plugin?

https://jira.ixsystems.com/browse/NAS-102083, filed on 11 Jun
Referring to https://github.com/freenas/iocage-plugin-nextcloud/pull/13, filed on 27 May
That PR no longer merges cleanly, because in the nearly three months since I submitted it, the plugin has been changed to completely hide the critical information OP is citing from the user, moving it into the PLUGIN_INFO file. Apparently that's in preparation for a UI enhancement coming in 11.3 which will expose that information in the UI via a context menu or some such thing. No doubt that will be great when it's released, but in the interim it's simply impossible for a user to get a functioning Nextcloud plugin installation without using the shell.
