Nextcloud 27 compatibility

[mueslo]

Nextcloud 27.0.0 was released today. However, none of the maps releases currently available have NC27 listed as a compatible release. It would be good to get either a compatible release or a timeline for a compatible release.

[hugalafutro]

Not compatible with 26.0.3 stable either:

A new version is available: Nextcloud 26.0.3
3 apps have no compatible version for this Nextcloud version available.

Apps missing compatible version 
[Extract ↗](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/extract)
[Maps ↗](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/maps)
[Video converter ↗](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/video_converter)

edit:
strangely enough though, after going forward with the update to 26.0.3, during the update only the other 2 apps were listed as incompatible so I dunno

Nextcloud will be updated to version 26.0.3
These incompatible apps will be disabled:
Extract (extract)
Video converter (video_converter)
Please make sure that the database, the config folder and the data folder have been backed up before proceeding.

I just updated to 26.0.3. Maps wasn't shown as incompatible, and everything works fine, for now.

[hugalafutro]

@louim-lbs I edited my post, the incompability for Maps only showed from the Nextcloud UI, once the actual upgrade started it suddenly wasn't listed for reasons unknown.

[tacruc]

Can you test the v1.1.0-nightly, then we can release something for NC27 soon.

[DuneJeeper]

Upgraded to 27.0 Maps unable to enable.

[jessebot]

When I try to enable the maps app (version 1.1.0) on Nextcloud 27 via the web UI, I get:

An error occurred during the request. Unable to proceed.
Autoload path not allowed: /var/www/html/custom_apps/maps/appinfo/application.php

I'm using the nextcloud docker image if that helps. Happy to give other details that might be helpful.

[tacruc]

Can you test if deleting the ../appinfo/applications.php helps? The file is empty I don't know why the AIO container cares about it.

[DuneJeeper]

Had 2 php's. application.php and app.php. Had to delete both to enable. Maps now an icon at top of NC. Doesn't load a map. "Your" of "your photos" is jumbled. Settings menu doesn't load.

[tacruc]

the app.php is important.

[DuneJeeper]

the app.php is important.

Wouldn't load at all without both php's gone. Tried every combination. With both gone it appeared but was non-functional. Running NC 27.0 docker on unRAID.

[alaskanpuffin]

@DuneJeeper I had to restart the docker container after deleting application.php and I was able to enable it.

[DuneJeeper]

@DuneJeeper I had to restart the docker container after deleting application.php and I was able to enable it.

Followed your steps. Could not replicate. It let me enable. It never appeared so I could get to it. First went to disabled. I enabled from there, but nothing appears so I can launch it.

I have problems to reproduce this Issue it would be helpful if someone finds the crutial difference between this instances where the issue occurs and where it doesn't.
On this configuration I couldn't reproduce the Issue:

After I deleted application.php as suggested, then the app showed an official update in the console (for some reason it was now showing as the old stable version), I clicked update and then enabled it and all is working now 🤷

I'm not entirely sure what caused this or how it was fixed as that file was indeed empty.

Edit: It may have started working after I temporary changed the Update channel to beta at one point while testing something else. This setting is under settings/admin/overview:

Maybe a similar problem.
Nextcloud 26.0.3. Cannot be updated to 27.0 because one app is not compatible, Maps 1.0.2
A coupe of hours ago I got the information that Maps 1.1.0 is available througt the internal Nextcloud notification. But when I go to apps, Maps cannot be updateted (showing no Update button)
Deactivating the app and reactivating does not change anything.
If I deactivate and delete the app, it cannot be installed again and is now completely missing in the internal appstore.

Looks like my Nextcloud thinks that Maps is incompatible to my instance and does not show it as installable again. For I am using a VM i could reset to a snapshot with a working Maps, but with the older version, of course.
What can I do to force an update?

Cheers, Hans

[Hans1Hansen]

I ignored the app warning and upgraded NC to 27.0
The update worked, Maps looks like this:

I can either delete the app or activate an untested app
When I choose activate, Maps starts. But I am not sure, how stable this will work. Again, no available update for Maps is shown.

Deleting the app offers the old version again:

[tacruc]

@Hans1Hansen maps v1.1.0 requires at least PHP 8.1. Might this he the reason why no update is shown for you?

[Hans1Hansen]

@tacruc Bingo! That's right. I still use PHP version 8.0.28. NC 27 warns, but still works with it. Maps does not. Thank you very much! Your answer ended my senseless search for a solution.

[Hans1Hansen]

Info for people who try, too:
On NC 26 I updated to PHP 8.1. Nevertheless no update available for Maps 1.0.3
Updated to NC 27 either. Now Maps shows version 1.1.0.

[monkeyhybrid]

I just enabled Maps 1.1.0 on my Nextcloud 27 instance, and it appears to be working perfectly with no other intervention required.

For the record, I'm using PHP 8.1.

[ppfeufer]

I got it as an update on NC 26.0.2 with PHP 8.2. No issues. Still waiting on https://github.com/nextcloud/twofactor_admin before I update to NC26.0.3 or even 27 though

[Holger79]

I don't know if it helps but here is my observation, I am using the latest Nextcloud Docker 27 image.
I could not enable the app and always got the error: "Autoload path not allowed:"
After deleting the applications.php I was able to activate the app. After that I removed the app again and downloaded it again and now it could be activated the app despite the fact that the applications.php ist still present.
