<h1>Automatic setup<a class="headerlink" href="#automatic-setup" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>If you need to install Nextcloud on multiple servers, you normally do not want
to set up each instance separately as described in
<a class="reference internal" href="../configuration_database/linux_database_configuration.html"><span class="doc">Database configuration</span></a>.
For this reason, Nextcloud provides an automatic configuration feature.</p>
<p>To take advantage of this feature, you must create a configuration file, called
<code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">config/autoconfig.php</span></code>, and set the file parameters as required.
You can specify any number of parameters in this file.  Any unspecified parameters appear on the “Finish setup” screen when you first launch Nextcloud.</p>
<p>The <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">config/autoconfig.php</span></code> is automatically removed after the initial configuration has been applied.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>Keep in mind that the automatic configuration does not eliminate the need for
creating the  database user and database in advance, as described in
<a class="reference internal" href="../configuration_database/linux_database_configuration.html"><span class="doc">Database configuration</span></a>.</p>
</div>
<section id="parameters">
<h2>Parameters<a class="headerlink" href="#parameters" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>When configuring parameters, you must understand that two parameters are named differently in this configuration file when compared to the standard <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">config.php</span></code> file.</p>
