As described in the title, I do not see the Face Recognition app in the app store on Nextcloud 16.0.8. Is this a known issue?

You can try to download and install it manually:

https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/facerecognition

3

have you checked the requiremnts?

@JimmyKater Thanks for the reply! I meet the requirements.
@j-ed thanks for the link. That ‘ease’ manual install seems to be new! I’ve tried the ‘hard’ manual install before which did not work. Will be giving it a try!! Thank you!

After following the manual instructions it’s still saying

The library pdlib is not available.

Already tried restarting the server with no result.

apt install php7.0-pdlib

Returns

php7.0-pdlib is already the newest version

6

which php do you run?

7

php -v on my nextcloud server returns PHP 7.2.24

8

… and what php version is used by the PHP web component?

9

so

can’t be correct, somehow. right?

10

So the only option would be to downgrade my php version to 7.0?

11

no. why? isn’t here any php7.2-pdlib ?

12

@j-ed The php version on my nextcloud itself is Version: 7.3.14

13

I don’t think there is? At least I could not find one

14

oyyyy. so you should find something like php7.3(xyz)-pdlib and install it

15

It is always recommend to keep the php web and cli component in sync to prevent unexpected behavior.

My PHP version is 7.3.19-1 - I cannot find an extension for my version, for pdlib. What can I do?
