I have a problem with nginx and owncloud. When i access the owncloud's login page i get this error:
Your data directory and your files are probably accessible from the internet. The .htaccess file that ownCloud provides is not working. We strongly suggest that you configure your webserver in a way that the data directory is no longer accessible or you move the data directory outside the webserver document root.
Here is my vhost file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name default_server;
root /usr/share/nginx/www;
index index.html index.htm;
location / {
# First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
# Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location
# include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules
}

Specifically here is the location /owncloud:

fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 256k;
fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 256k;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
}
location ~* ^/owncloud/(.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|html|xml|txt))$ {
root /var/www/;
}
}
location /ownCloud {
rewrite ^/* /owncloud last;
}
I tried to fix it based on the documentation http://doc.owncloud.org/server/5.0/admin_manual/installation/installation_others.html#nginx-configuration but i can't.
I also changed permissions just in case that was causing the error but it did't fix it:
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/owncloud
phpmyadmin, roundcube and squirrelmail work just fine so i used their configuration only changing the root path of owncloud which is /var/www/owncloud.
Here is the contents of the owncloud/
root@vps1:/var/www# ls -l owncloud/

I noticed that the tar file doesn't include tha /data folder and is created the first time you access the owncloud's web interface. Also these files are created:
root@vps1:/var/www# ls -la owncloud/data/
total 12
drwxrwx--- 2 www-data www-data 4096 Σεπ 27 18:54 .
drwxr-xr-x 14 www-data www-data 4096 Σεπ 27 18:54 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 27 Σεπ 27 18:54 .htaccess
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 0 Σεπ 27 18:54 index.html
So i am not sure in which .htaccess file the warning is referring to. /var/www/owncloud/.htaccess or /var/www/owncloud/data/.htaccess or how to fix it.
Edit: i tried adding this and it still doesn't work.
