I just got the mail about the Version 28.0.1.
When I update my Nextcloud-instance (via the web interface) I got an upgrade to 27.1.5, but 28.0.1 is not offered.
How can I upgrade to that version?
UPDATE: I just read that the version is deployed in several “waves”. So I just have to wait, I think. That’s a good idea; so many errors while updating (again). My installation crashed several times in the past.
Wel Iam trying it out as wel speak . I found 2 things
1 User mutation.It seems not possible to mutate a user . Changes are not saved
2 The bookmap app is not working when trying to add a map to the boookmarks app
klikking om a specific map doesnoot filter out the bookmarks of a specific map . I guess the whole poind of adding maps is to bring some order .
For your info > Iam running it on a cheep hosting plan with 50 or 100 gb space So far this is what I have done
Iam am going to try on my fourth hosting partner . The last one did kind of a good job . I need a bit more speed and relyability as sometimes it does run fine and sometimes it doesnot run at all
Tried hostinger. Was fine using insaller . But their insaller had an older version. The platform was fast though
then I tried one that was to expensive butwas doing ok ( to little space was the main issue ) enough space was getting to expensive
Then I tried web reus in holland . Nice 50 GB space and no limits at a good price. As said it need s more relyability as I need to use the converance bit and the chat app to be working properly
In my instance the same happened. v28.0.1 only announced via CLI. But be careful! My upgrade has led to an unusable NC. I was running on Debain 11 and after the update to v28.0.1 an internal server error appeared. And there are a lot error messages in the nextcloud.log.
So far I found that it is better to upgrade from Debian 11 to Debian 12 and check the following things:
apt-utils installed? If you need to install php-bz2 (see point 2) you need to have this installed first
php-bz2 installed? This package seems to be necessary in order to install the apps
I implemented a Turnkey Linux Nextcloud appliance (Debian 12 and NC v27.1.1) to analyze what happens. Upgrade to v27.1.5 worked well. Upgrade to v28.0.1 seemed to work as well but there are error messages in the nextcloud.log And the admin screen tells me, that I have to install php-bz2. I’m still investing the case and I won’t upgrade my other production environment so far.
I am a lite bit disappointed by this version.
I never had so many errors in log (100 per day !), even with an installation made from scratch, not a migration. With version 27, no error !
In SAFARI it’s not possible to scroll in the Application panel.
The connection frame has changed with surimposition of “User name…” and “Password” which is not necessary and “heavy”.
Sometime the cron task takes a very long time to end…
The icons in the file view are less clear than in the previous version.
I migrated from 27.1.3 to 28.0.1 and, with all this problems, even after migration or with a fresh installation, I decided to restore my backup and to migrate from 27.1.3 ti 27.1.5 which is more stable from my point of view.
For your own interest, check if these error were reported at Issues · nextcloud/server · GitHub, so that there is a change that they will be fixed while you still work on NC27. You might think these errors are obvious, if they had happened for the developers, they would have fixed them.
My Docker installation still doesn’t have a single error. Everything works fine. The installation is not ‘all-in-one’ like many here, but the simplest one (behind a reverse proxy). It is roughly as described here: docs/nextcloud/README.md at master · docker-library/docs · GitHub
I still haven’t had a single error since December 23 when I updated Nextcloud to version 28.0.1. Apparently the errors are showing up in your ‘all-in-one’ version. I have no errors in my simple installation based on image 28.0.1-fpm-alpine.
