Nextcloud version (eg, 29.0.5): 29.0.2
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 29.04): Ubuntu 22.04.4
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): nginx/1.24.0
PHP version (eg, 8.3): 8.2
The issue you are facing:
When the ‘Activity’ - app is activated, it leads to errors being thrown when doing file operations in a group folder like deleting or moving, sometimes also uploading a file. There might be a connection to ACLs being used, since it could be working on some level in a directory structure and in a deeper level it won’t.
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): No, it’s been there since quite some time and also with older NC versions.
Steps to replicate it:
- Create a file in a groupfolder
- Try to delete it → produces an error
- deactivate activity app
- try again to delete the file → works
