The issue you are facing:
I try to access some files from the web interface and I always have the same error (only visible on the log): Exception":“OCA\\DAV\\Connector\\Sabre\\Exception\\Forbidden”,“Message”:“No read permissions”

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? : Y

Steps to replicate it:

  1. Open a folder/file on the web application

The output Nextcloud log in Admin > Logging:

I found the problem: my mistake defining a file access rule that removes me all access to the files ^^

where was that rule?

If I remember correctly it was on an external application (Sabre I think?) not available now with the new version of NextCloud.

thanks for the answer. yeah just noticed Exception":“OCA\DAV\Connector\Sabre\Exception\Forbidden”,“Message”:“No read permissions” in your first post.

I guess this has been replaced by the “File access control” app. This app basically gives you the same ability over your shared files/folders by setting rules. Looks like the error I got that looked a lot like yours is gone now. Maybe updating to 15.0.7 fixed it. Hope it will remain in this state.
