The issue you are facing:
Uploading pictures from the Nextcloud Android app version 3.6.0 fails. Both manually by sharing and Auto Upload. The notification bar says: “Upload failed. Server in maintenance mode”.
My Nextcloud instance is not in maintenance mode, why this message is weird.

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): Yes

Steps to replicate it:

  1. Share a picture to nextcloud.
  2. or turn on Auto upload and let a picture upload.

DAVx5 synchronization and everything else works just fine. Just can’t backup my pictures or other files from the Android app, because it says the server is in maintenance mode
???

*Edit: Has moved the topic to clients/android since it concern the android app only.

Facing the same issue here. Mine is a new NC setup so I thought I was doing something wrong but uploads from web browser work fine.

New system report since the old one has expired.

This is still an issue 8 months later
 :frowning:
Does no one have a fix for this?

Hola a todos,
Después de perder un día entero encontré el problema en la carpeta que asigna automåticamente la aplicación de Android. Simplemente cambiar la carpeta principal por la tercera opción:
1.- En la aplicación ir a “Configuración”.
2.- En General → “Carpeta de almacenamiento de datos” hacemos click.
3.- Click en la tercera opción “/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.nextcloud.client/files”
Espero os funcione.
Saludos
