Although it won't help you much, but NC 12.0 runs here flawlessly using PHP 7.1.5.
Did you do an upgrade from a former version or is it a new installation?
You can also try messing around with the .htaccess file as it contains specific sections for PHP5 and PHP7.

@jamfx Can you provide the log files of your Nextcloud and web server?

[creopard]

Also have a look at #5058

Nextcloud-Log:
I'm sorry. I can not find any related info at this Timecode. Only some login-Failures from known clients somehow around this time..

If it is absolutely necessary I would try to
a) clear logs
b) switch to PHP 7.1.5
c) read out the logs
d) Switch back to my old PHP-Version
e) post them here :)
I will have to ask the admin to do so. Hopefully you can use this log so far.

@jamfx To me this looks like a DB connection error.

Have you installed php7.1-mysql?

[jamfx]

I use a self compiled PHP 7.1. MySQL support is included. I successfully tested a mysqli connection.

[jamfx]

Is there anything I can do to provide more info? Any suggestions about this?
Thanks
JamFX

[creopard]

You will also require the PHP module "pdo_mysql"

[jamfx]

Thank you. This hint lead me to the source of the problem. I have to use "127.0.0.1" instead of "localhost" as db host in my configuration. This seems to be an MySQL PDO issue. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1819592/error-when-connecting-to-mysql-using-php-pdo

Thank you jamfx for the clear and to the point fix.
Im currently hosting 4 different opensource projects on the same server and each domain has been impacted and required some small tweak, after upgrading to php 7.1.x
I must be getting better at my google searches, this link was at the top of my google search
