yum remove {{#var:smecontribname}}  {{#var:contribname}}
     −
=== Mount with davfs on Fedora Clients ===
+
{{Warning box| if you plan to reinstall and had the nextcloud rpm installed do not yum remove it or rpm -e it as it would put you in a situation where you will not be able to reinstall and restore your old data. nextcloud-src rpm if present do not create such situation and can be removed safely.}}
While you might love the easy setup of the gnome client for nextcloud, you might encounter some frustration of having your favourite applications not showing nextcloud as mounted and needing to find it to sometime not being able to access it.
     −
Here is a workaround
+
Uninstalling the rpms
 +
yum remove {{#var:smecontribname}}  {{#var:contribname}}-src
 +
rpm -e --justdb nextcloud
   −
First as root<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+
those folders will then remain
dnf install davfs2 -y
+
* /usr/share/nextcloud : software and config
usermod -aG davfs2 $YOURUSER
+
* /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud : user data
echo "use_locks 0" >> /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf
  −
echo "https://example.com/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav /home/$YOURUSER/nextcloud davfs user,rw,auto 0 0
  −
" >> /etc/fstab
      +
also you will have mariadb or mariadb105 with nextcloud db and user.
   −
</syntaxhighlight>then you should log out /log in with your user in order to have the group membership. You can also just do "su -l USERNAME"
+
And finally, db configuration with entry for nextcloud.  
   −
then as your user (replace your_password by your password, or a token;):<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+
If all of those remains as is, a simple reinstall of the contrib will bring back nextcloud running. If you uninstalled it because your install was non functional or want a complete removal, there are extra steps.  
mkdir ~/nextcloud
  −
mkdir ~/.davfs2
  −
echo "https://example.com/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav your_Nextcloud_username your_password" >> ~/.davfs2/secrets
  −
chmod 0600 ~/.davfs2/secrets
  −
</syntaxhighlight>then just mount ! <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
  −
mount ~/nextcloud
  −
</syntaxhighlight>
     −
From there you can tweak the cache configuration to make it easier for you if you are far from the server, default cache size is 50MiByte, you could increase it to let's say 3 GiByte in ~/.davfs2/davfs2.conf for your user <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+
In case of deleting either the db or part of the software folder, whenever you will try to reinstall the contrib, process will fail as db and files are not in sync.
cache_size 3G
  −
</syntaxhighlight>you should see the folder mount at every logon from now on!  if you do not want that, change "auto" in the fstab by "noauto".  
     −
Then add the following in ~/bash_profile or ~/bash_rc. You could user also mount -a and to try to put something in /etc/gdm/PostLogin/" instead<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+
In case you need to reinstall from scratch, '''first, backup what you might want to restore latter''':
mount /home/username/nextcloud
+
cd /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data
 +
mysqldump nextcloud > nextcloud55.sql
 +
mysqldump105 nextcloud > nextcloud105.sql
 +
config print nextcloud /root/nextcloud.config
 +
tar -czf  /root/nextcloud.tar.gz /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data /usr/share/nextcloud
 +
then erase all what is remaining:
 +
mysql -e "DROP DATABASE `config getprop nextcloud DbName`;DROP USER IF EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`;"
 +
mysql105 -e "DROP DATABASE `config getprop nextcloud DbName`;DROP USER IF EXISTS `config getprop nextcloud DbUser`;"
 +
rm -rf /usr/share/nextcloud
 +
rm -rf /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud
 +
#this one is optional, and should not cause issue if still there
 +
config delete nextcloud
    +
and you should be able to start a new install from scratch
    +
=== Release schedule ===
 +
see https://github.com/nextcloud/server/wiki/Maintenance-and-Release-Schedule
   −
</syntaxhighlight>And Finally to umount in  gdm using "sudo vim /etc/gdm/PostSession/"<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+
as per 2024/01:
if [ ${USERNAME} = "myuser" ];then
+
{| class="wikitable"
  umount -fl /home/myuser/nextcloud

==== Web or GUI upgrade from NC25 to NC26  ====
 +
 +
Due to the change of php version needed from php74 to php80 and higher, you need to issue the following command while using NC25 to be able to then upgrade to NC26. NC25 is the first to be able to handle php80, and NC26 requires php80 or higher.
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +

 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 +
==== Issue importing files in db "Entry path/to/file will not be accessible due to incompatible encoding" ====
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
yum install convmv --enablerepo=epel
 +
#first test to see the changes
 +
convmv -f utf-8 -t utf-8 --nfc -r /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data/username
 +
#check, then with --notest
 +
convmv -f utf-8 -t utf-8 --nfc -r --notest /home/e-smith/files/nextcloud/data/username
 +
#then rescan
 +
occ files:scan -p /username/files/
 +
</syntaxhighlight>this might also occurs on ibays / home folders and their files not all visibles from nextcloud, simply adapt the path for convmv /home/e-smith/files/ibays/ibayname/files/ or /home/e-smith/files/users/userame/home/
 +
 +
==== Remove legacy nextcloud rpm without deleting /usr/share/nextcloud content ====
 +
for installs done before smeserver-nextcloud 1.2.0-16, the rppm nextcloud was required and was conflicting with web update. Since 1.2.0-16 it is not required anymroe and we use a nextcloud-src rpm which updates itself in /usr/share/nextcloud-src and is only used if you install the first time or restart from scratch your install.
 +
To remove the nextcloud rpm which is not needed and save your files:
 +
rpm -e --justdb nextcloud
 +
 +
source https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/208722/how-to-remove-an-rpm-package-while-keeping-certain-files
    
==== User cannot see shares/files ====
 
==== User cannot see shares/files ====

This appeared to fix the issue and the user could now see the files.

====Upgrading beyond 20.x====
 +
 +
To set the default phone region:
 +
 +
OCC config:system:set default_phone_region --type string --value="GB"
 +
 +
To fix missing indices - this may take a while so be patient:
 +
 +
OCC db:add-missing-indices
 +
 +
==== NC 20-21 :  open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/templates/) is not within the allowed path ====
 +
this is a bug in NC. It has been fixed in NC 22 and not backported to NC20. This is just log noise. You can ignore it while waiting to update
