@Altahrim The 29.0.0 Downloads link points to the rc5 zip.

But maybe you can compare the checksums at server/releases.

Question: is the Webkit uploading issue fixed in 28.0.5? I can see it was assigned to version 29 and scheduled for a backport to 28.0.3 but I donโ€™t seem to be savvy enough to see whether it actually happened.

An error on the website or with the scanner. You can check the version with https://cloud.server.tld/status.php.

@n2o Yes, the backport was merged into v28.0.3

Awesome, thank you!

:rocket: scan.nextcloud.com is updated!

Also thank you for the heads up :slight_smile:

I have a test system with 29.0.0 and production system now with 28.0.5. In both instances, I need to login to the web page quite frequently. This was not the case in the past (although it was the case with the nc29 RCโ€™s).

Supposedly session_lifetime defaults to 24 hours. I have never configured that or related settings. Do I need to set session_relaxed_expiry? Whatโ€™s the key? Logging in, especially with 2fa, every 15 minutes (Iโ€™m not sure of the exact time or trigger) is a bit of a waste.

Did you Look in the chapter โ€œUser Sessionโ€ in config.php Manual?

how to downgrade to 28

downgrading isnโ€™t supported at all (as you can read everywhere).
The only thing you can do is: restore your backup that you took ahead of upgrading
