[primary storage on Openstack swift] Update to 12.0.5 / 13RC breaks Nextcloud #8041
Description
Activity
Any news? This is kind of a big deal.
I reverted back to 12.0.4 as this bug is a deal breaker for nextcloud usage.
I find it amazing to not have an answer from anyone (even just to ask for more information). It's a serious issue, and it's kind of ignored. A minor update just completely broke the nextcloud installation, but hey, no big deal, this affects only few people, no worry.
I am actually holding off performing the upgrade because of this issue that "affects only few people" -- I currently don't have the luxury of spending time on rolling back if something goes wrong (I am in charge of 4 Nextcloud systems). Would like to see some insights in this ticket to inspire confidence to perform the update. That confidence is currently missing.

Hi Arvi,
I totally understand your frustration about your broken NC server due to the minor update to 12.0.5.
Let's put some focus on this issue.@ChristophWurst @MorrisJobke @jospoortvliet @rullzer Who can help? Quite a few users broke their installation by updating to 12.0.5
The community couldn't help so far. Some insights of developers is needed.Please advise.
Updating the server instance is always a total mess! Minor or major update is always trouble !
Plan enough time for manual update, that is the only way to (more - or less ) safe to update!I can't find the bug I think this is...
Anyway.
Could you try:
- Remove the
cssandjsfolder from yourappdata_*folder - Run:
./occ files:scan-app-data - Do a force refresh in your browser
ctrl + F5
@skjnldsv @juliushaertl I think #8078 would help here as well.
- Remove the
mm I don't have any appdata folder, where is it supposed to be?
Yeah, I don't have that folder.
(I use openstack as my main storage)Ah right then your data folder is indeed empty I guess.
I can try to come up with a SQL query... because if you just purge it from the DB on object store it will just create new items :)
DELETE FROM oc_filecache WHERE path LIKE 'appdata%/js/%' OR path LIKE 'appdata%/css/%';
Try that. Of course make sure you have a backup and all that ;)
No luck. The query was executed properly (203 rows affected), but it doesn't work better.
23 remaining items
Does somebody have a working swift setup for me to test against? Because the docker images I could find did not work.
What do you mean, you guys seriously still haven't installed a nextcloud instance with swift, really???
They are releasing a product with a feature that they can't test whether it works or not. It's amazing!
Reacted by Schmuuu and John Molakvoæ@Schmuuu @skjnldsv why the thumbs down? it's the truth, otherwise this would have been a showstopper for a release, or at least I hope so.
The only dev in this discussion said that he can't test/reproduce, because the Docker images don't work.
If the CI pipeline had sufficient tests, the commit that broke nextcloud would've never been merged.So nothing what @tdttester said is wrong.
Lets keep it civil people. We are constantly updating and extending our test cases. This test matrix is already big and getting bigger every day.
We are in the process of setting up automated tests against swift right now. But this takes time and resources which are limited.
Hopefully we have a fix for you to test soon. But comments like that don't make us work any faster. The opposite is more likely.
Reacted by Christoph Wurst, John Molakvoæ and SchmuuuPlease note that I did not attack anybody personally. I also did not use any swear words, nor harsh language. Don't deflect by calling the truth uncivil.
I know that it is hard to have test cases for every single edge case, but this doesn't change the fact that my comment above was correct.
@tessus it's called diplomacy. Saying things sarcastically has never improved the dialogue between people.
E.g: three sentences, one same outcome
- Maybe if you had done your work correctly and implemented the proper testing, you wouldn't be there
- Maybe we should consider adding some more tests for the next time so things like that doesn't occur again
- Releasing a product with a feature that they can't test whether it works or not. It's amazing!
Which one do you prefer? I made my choice :)
@skjnldsv ok, my bad. I'm blunt and I expect others to be blunt with me as well. for me, all 3 sentences have the same meaning: I screwed up and thus have to fix it.
I would never take any of it personally or think "oops, that sounded harsh and hurt my feelings".But I agree with you, the second one may "sound" nicer to a lot of people. Personally I don't put value in how something sounds, but the context.
Disclaimer: I have a genuine distaste for sugar-coating and making things sound nice for reasons of diplomacy and political correctness. I'm working on it, but it may take a while... ;-)
Anyway, I don't want to derail this ticket any further. I just wanted to make my position clear.
(I won't add any more comments to this ticket.)P.S.: I also love sarcasm.
Yep, this is working. Adding the return statement fixed my problem! Thank you!
