"An error occurred during the request. Unable to proceed" when viewing Settings->Users

Running Nextcloud Hub 9 (30.0.11)
AIO, running in Docker on a Raspberry Pi 5 8GB
All updated this week.

When I go to the page to add / edit / remove users, I get the pop up message “An error occurred during the request. Unable to proceed”

I cannot see anything in the logs relating to this.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Can you check your browser inspector and look at the response data in the HTTP request? Instructions are in the support template you appear to have deleted/overlooked in your post.

  • Reverse proxy and version _(e.g. nginx 1.27.2): N/A
  • PHP version :8.3.21
  • Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Yes / No): YES
  • When did this problem seem to first start? Today
