I updraged NC 21.0.2 to NC 21.0.3 and the Cron stopped working. Actually the Cron gets executed but NC still tells that it haven’t run for x minutes. Executing the Cron on the command line (sudo -u http php74 /var/services/web/nextcloud/cron.php) does not generate any error. There is no error in nc log, apache error log or access log. The command gets executed immediately.
If I disable memcache.local in the NC config, the execution takes a few seconds and the cron is actually executed and NC shows that the cron ran this moment.
Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): working: 21.0.2, not working 21.0.3
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Linux (Synology DSM)
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): Apache 2.4
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 7.4 (tried also 7.3 on the cli)
The issue you are facing:
See description above
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): Y
Steps to replicate it:
- Update to NC 21.0.3
- Execute nextcloud/cron.php
- Check admin area if cron got executed

But it seems to me that APCu should be abandoned as the local cache and that Redis should be used for local caching to avoid problems in the future… Correct me if I’m misinterpreting this…
