Previously I was running the official plugin and was at version 25, so I have not tested any of the in between versions.
As far as I can remember, I never had any trouble selecting multiple items in a folder (web ui) and downloading them. They always ended up in a zip file even if it was only two items, but it worked.
Now I can’t for the life of me figure out what’s wrong… I mark a couple of items, small jpg or text files, and I click the Download button. Web browser flashes the download indicator but no file is downloaded. When I click to view downloads in the webbrowser, it sais “Website was not available”.
Is there some setting I need to activate to make it work??
And when testing with a different user, as well as the admin account. I get a slightly different result in that clicking the Download button opens up a Windows Explorer page, where the file name is “download.htm”.
Clicking save gives me the same error as before “website not available”…
I have now tested making a fresh install of version 26 to try things out, and it works perfectly fine!
Selecting two or more of the included photos and clicking download, I get a Windows explorer dialoge with Photos.zip in the filename and they download just fine. And I can open the zip and view the photos on my PC.
I upgraded from version 26 to 27 (1.6) and it also worked perfectly fine.
Finally I ran the webbased upgrade, which takes me to 28.0.2, and now downloading of multiple files is broken!
Starting to look like a bug to me?
The detailed log from the upgrade gives me zero errors and nothing that gives a hint as to what may have changed and broke this function.
Clearly there is a difference in the UI, in that download used to be found under the three dots, but is now a big button instead…
Well, zip and zlib wouldn’t be removed when I do an upgrade from NC UI would they??
As I wrote, I have it all working fine starting out with v26 or v27. It’s only after upgrading (from withing NC UI) to v28 that this problem occurs.
Reading more about this I have found a few references to the exact same problem for some with Docker installations, both official and community version apparently. https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/42470
The “solution” is pointing to something required for “legacy support” in the Nginx config. It is strange that this has been required since 2 years but this issue pops up only with 28.0.1, 2?
For now, the workaround suggested by Kunago seems to work for me…
