Takes over #11394 and addresses all reviewer feedback. Improves the service discovery troubleshooting section for Nextcloud running in an Apache subfolder.

Changes

  • Terminology: document root DocumentRoot throughout
  • Distro-specific caveat: /var/www/html is now qualified as the Debian/Ubuntu default, not a universal Apache default
  • New subfolder guidance: replaces the vague "If your Nextcloud instance is installed in a subfolder…" paragraph with explicit steps — add an AllowOverride FileInfo <Directory> block to apache2.conf, then configure .htaccess
  • AllowOverride clarification: explains that FileInfo is the minimum needed for rewrite directives; AllowOverride All already satisfies this
  • RST fixes: blank line before .. note::, tabs → spaces in code block, prose line-wrapped

☑️ Resolves

Takes over #11394
