The failure that prompted this is the environment file being absent:
Error: parsing file ".../nextcloud.env": ... no such file or directory
nextcloud.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=125/n/a
The play creates that file before it installs or starts anything, so this cannot
come from a play run: it is a start outside one, after ~/podman-data/nextcloud was
removed. The unit is WantedBy=default.target, so it retries at boot and fails the
same way until the play is run again. The readme now says so, because the fix is
not obvious from a 125.
The rescue message was also stale: it sent readers to look for "Permission denied"
under /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d, which was the PHP session file this playbook no
longer creates or mounts, and it had lost the reset-failed hint when the message
was shortened. It now names the failure that actually happens (a removed webroot),
keeps the database/cache/image pointers that are still real, and gives the command
for a unit left failed by an earlier attempt.
