External storage support cannot be enabled

[/details]

Nextcloud version : 22.0
Operating system and version: docker nextcloud fpm-alpine
PHP version : 7.4
I use my own docker customized image
https://hub.docker.com/r/gpopesc/nc-nginx-app
https://hub.docker.com/r/gpopesc/nc-nginx-web

  • cron + redis

The issue you are facing:
I tried to setup the external storage support for samba share from my server, I could setup the parameters, then when I pressed files menu to see samba share, I got an internal server error.
I managed to disable the extension external storage support with OCC command and now I can access my server.

When I tried to re-enable, I got the same error and in extensions I get:
Error: This app cannot be enabled because it makes the server unstable
Capture

I tried to overwrite apps/files_external or 3rdparty/icewind with older versions or reinstall them from nexcloud server, without any luck.

Probably it is something wrong with my settings and I need to reset parameters in external shares , then start over.

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

solved,
I forgot about SQL tables. I truncate all 4 tables related with oc_external_files and when I enabled again the plugin, the error disappear
