Nextcloud version : 18.0.2
Operating system and version : Ubuntu Server 19.10 x64
Apache or nginx version : Apache 2.4.41
PHP version : 7.3.11
I’ve got multiple directories added as external storage. These directories are stored locally on my server. These directories/files have a chmod 777 set. They belong to a local user of the server, not www-data.
When I add files on my laptop in these directories, Nextcloud can’t sync them : “not allowed because you don’t have write access to this directory” (this is a rough translation, my client is in french).
I tried to add a file in the same directories directly on the server :
sudo -u www-data touch /path/to/local/storage/test.txt
And it works just fine.
I don’t have anything showing in the nextcloud logs related to my issue (or any log message at all that would appear at the time I tried to sync). Nothing in the Apache logs either.
