[gentoo-user] Owncloud got completely broken after update

[Melleus]

Hi to all,

My OC got completely broken after update to v.10.0.4. At least two
backends stop working: webdav and caldav. I have heard that many
developers flee from OC project. So what do think would make more sence
- investing my time in debuging OC or migratitg to Nextcloud?

Thank you.

I went to nextcloud -- it was at 11.0 when I started and is now at
12.04 or so.  I got tired of owncloud's problems, even the ability to
stay logged in was gone because the developer moved on, and so I
bailed on that.  I would go back to 9.x before switching, but you will
have to restore the database to what it was.

So I have just done. Thankfully I use it only for myself, so all I had
to do to migrate is just resync my devices. I installed NC from scratch
and it works out of the box. Though it throws some warnings in its web
interface: it has found "extra" .webapp-nextcloud-12.0.4 file and
jquery.ocdialog.js has invalid hash for some unknown reason. I know
where .webapp* file comes from, but what do you think I should do with
that jquery* file?

Regards.

I am not sure, maybe you should check the forums.  I had to comment
out all instances of access_time_limit because it hung my  nextcloud
otherwise.  So, maybe the forums can help.

Thanksfully I only got some warnings but everything works. I forgot to
mention that the trick was to export my contacts from OC and import to
NC. After that I drop my OC account and synced to NC account. And my
main calendar is in Org-mode, so switch to another account is no problem
at all. I know that this won't work for production, but there are much
better admins there than me. They even might know how to make OC work
after updates. And I was just looking for the easiest way to migrate my
personal data to more reliable storage. Thank you.

I encountered that, too, and decided to compare the file with the version in nextcloud's git 
repository.  Since the difference turned out to be trivial, I decided to ignore the error 
message and chalked it up to the wrong hash being recorded.
