Hello,
we have problems of instability of the desktop client on windows. The client freezes, so it is also difficult to collect the log. In the attached screenshot, you can see that the client has a ‘Error: “locking protocol”’ on a file, and then stops and freezes.
On other circumstances, the client also received an Error 500 from the server due to a known race condition on locks (if that can be related).
Any suggestion on how to pursue troubleshooting would be welcome, thanks, hj
You can also write a log to a file:
https://docs.nextcloud.com/desktop/2.3/troubleshooting.html#saving-files-directly
Thanks for the suggestion. We have several users of the same machine, in addition to having to require an admin to set that up for us. Adding the flag to save the files automatically would be valid for all the NC client users on that machine?
Best regards, and kudos for the great work!

Hello, after some efforts, we managed to have the client start with --logdir.
Out of the saved logs, I oculd not spot anything. The log is ending brutally with a crash of the client.

Strange, I got a second case of crash with exactly the same value 2661 s. Is that a default value?

Moreover, I noticed that some of the URLs in the log are with the server port (https://server/) and others are without the port (https://server-wo-port). I changed the values to represent that in the log one is with https://server1:333, whereas the other one is on https://server1 simply.
Is there any possibility that the client tries to communicate on different ports or is it just an effect of logging?
Also if you can hint towards an area of code in the client I would do a check. These crashes are annoying. Thanks a lot for the new release btw!

I can’t see anything obvious, it’s probably the best to use the logs and file a bug report https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues
