Bumping because I realized a month after taking a day to upgrade from 22.x to 28.0.1, I cannot share a folder to another user without the logs getting spammed with 500-response errors.

For the folder share, only one file in each folder successfully synced to the client PC with the remaining 19 (as part of that same share) errored out.

As with @siriwliw98, I have nothing to go on from here. I upgraded, then encyption/decryption only selectively works.

Actually, I’m also seeing the following. It has been talked about [over on GitHub](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/23046) too, but for version 20. So what’d be using the deprecated method at this point? Would that be a cause?

I had the same problem with 28.0.3.  
My solution: The user disabled the Show folder description on the Files/Files settings page.

Hi 🙂

Your tip sounds so promising but the setting doesn’t show on the affected device!  
I’m on .0.3 atm (waiting for the .0.4 image to be released as a container) and everything works except for that one iphone that doesn’t show any files in the files app.  
Problem is, the iphone in question also doesn’t show the “advanced settings” for the files app. Only the five basic ones and webdav…

kind regards!

I don’t have an iPhone, but a tip: try to change it on the web interface.

thanks for your reply!  
the setting from the laptop didn’t seem to affect the phone…  
but the container for 29.0.4 was released tonight and that works!
