Thank you for your reply @pedro.silva _ **How do you have it setup?** _ 1. I install app Collabora Online and Collabora Online - Built-in CODE Server and enable app 2. In setup “Collabora Online Development Edition” I select “Use the built-in CODE - Collabora Online Development Edition” When I open or create file everything is working but cannot save file please look [Can create but connot save or edit file on collabora app nextcloud - YouTube](https://youtu.be/mFbpVHYhQwE) _ **how does it look your `loolwsd.xml` ?** _ I try setup my server collabora online with docker I can open [https://collabora.mydomain.com/hosting/discovery](https://collabora.mydomain.com/hosting/discovery) But I cannot setting to “Use your own server” ---

when you say > I cannot setting to “Use your own server” what do you see instead? Or maybe better which specific nextcloud app do you have: - [https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocuments:](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocuments:) connects to a Collabora Online (or other) server (WOPI-like Client). (so you can set your own CO ) - which is different from the bultin server [https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocumentscode](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocumentscode) ---

For now, I connects to a Collabora Online “Collabora Online” → “Use the built-in CODE - Collabora Online Development Edition” I’m telling you about own CO because I think it’s a solution. But it doesn’t seem to work. Now let’s talk about only connects to a Collabora Online. I still can’t fix my problem. I am ready to follow your advice. Please explain to me the steps to fix this problem. ---

You should have a menu item File / Save as. Try and save your document under another name, this should work. ---
