Database Not Available Gives Poor Error Message

[vinaykapadia]

I have Nextcloud running on Docker, with a MariaDB container as the database. After a docker upgrade, I was getting an http 500 error from Nextcloud, just saying "The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request." Only thing in the Nextcloud container logs said "Could not reliably determine the server's FQDN" which is not helpful. I spent forever trying to troubleshoot it by tracing through the php code. Finally I noticed that I had a container that was stopped, and it was the MariaDB container. Once that got turned on, everything worked.

There needs to be a better fail message if the database doesn't connect.

The error message is thrown by Nextcloud, not by this Docker image.
