I'm using this on my office machine now for personal files. It works great!

@Mario-Jakovina said in Nextcloud experience:

What is this "cloud service" that does "data replication directly to the users local drives" if Nextcloud is not that? We use local fileservers just to decrease number of file conflicts.

When I say local I mean that the actual file is residing on the users harddrive. So if you unplug the network, the file can still be accessed.

Since you are talking about fileservers, that distinction has to be made. Because if the files are on the fileserver and you have an SMB share or something else, it's not on the users local drive.

@Mario-Jakovina said in Nextcloud - how to restore many deleted files:

We lost few subfolders (>700files) that we can't find in "Deleted files" which is terrible experience for us, and we will reconsider our usage of Nextcloud (I plan to open another topic for that). We recovered from backup.

Options:

Files are in another folder, moved by random_user_03, thus not in trash. Files were deleted, and trash emptied by malicious_user_06.

What I'm afraid of is:
Option 3. - Some bug in Nextcloud that deleted our files or lost track of files that users accidentaly moved...

Nothing would delete something a user moved.
As for lost track? That is easy there are CLI commands to rescan files.
Never had to use it because of user error before. Only because I was administratively changing things.

Updated Nextcloud from 20.0.7 to 20.0.8 today and the problem went away.

Not the answer, but an answer.

Related to Scott? 🙂

Nope.

@JaredBusch But why robocopy?

Because it does at least skip the ones with no changes.

Why get convoluted with Powershell to do the same?

Not every system may have Robocopy.

it became part of theOS with Windows Vista. So anything running Windows Vista or Higher will have robocopy as a part of the Operating system (as everyone should be using higher than vista at this point.. I mean.. windows 7 is obsolete now.. sooo..)

Windows 10 1709 is obsolete too, so really anything not with a support mechanism shouldn't be used. But @JaredBusch might be getting paid stupid amounts of money to support Windows XP / Server 2000

@scottalanmiller said in NextCloud: Unrecoverablely broken?:

Bottom line, in NextCloud you shouldn't be looking at the files from the command line, ever. Not NextCloud files anyway. Permissions are meant to be handled by the app and it's database, not by the filesystem.

Well mostly. Nextcloud needs the files to have the right system permissions.

But user permissions have nothing to do with system permissions.

Also, for a few specific instances, I do quite a bit with Nextcloud files on the command line. But that is a very specific use case, and also has nothing to do with group or share permissions.

@JaredBusch hard to resist the call of the Natty Light.

I ran out of Blue Moon.

@dafyre Thanks, testing now to see if it works (as expected).

@gjacobse said in NextCloud: Chmod user folders:

Oh - no - the syntax is incorrect for ownership.

sudo chown

Yes,

chown to change owner chmod to change mode (permission)

Remember you can always do man chown to see the syntax.

It is indeed. It's running now.

How much data? How long is it taking?

Note: Use the -P/--progress flag to view real-time transfer statistics 🙂

260GB or so, nothing crazy. Not sure, ran it overnight.

Also, WTF... Who watches backups real time?

@brandon220 said in Show Active Users in NextCloud:

Mine is on 18.0.5 via the stable channel and shows there is an update to 18.0.6

I ended up with two systems that will not upgrade path 17 all the rest of them are upgraded 18 on the stable channel

Turns out I had a snapshot, restoring it and then regrouping...

@gjacobse said in NextCloud Shared Folder, not seen:

JEEZE -

Though I had checked - it's been two months or more since then.

Some how the permissions had fallen off and just needed to be added to the folder again.

Solved!

Enjoy the easy ones

jsut upgraded a system from 2.5 something. I made sure the key was set first.

What a pain in the ass.

Where did you add the registry key?
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Nextcloud GmbH\Nextcloud?

I did not add the second key because that was to prevent user override? My users don't have admin rights so even if they attempted ot override, it would never work.

Have you tried the linux Icloud Photo downloader?

https://github.com/ndbroadbent/icloud_photos_downloader

Or installing Icloud for Linux and then mounting the photo space?
sudo snap install icloud-for-linux

If I recall, the drive folder is here, photos can't be too terribly different
~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/

@scottalanmiller

I see , how is your PHP.ini

max_execution_time = 300 max_input_time = 180 max_input_vars = 10000 memory_limit = 512M error_reporting = E_ALL post_max_size = 64M upload_max_filesize = 64M max_file_uploads = 40

and PHP mode are you working on, mod_php or FPM.
