NC keeps original modified date on files bigger than 10MB

Hello!

We have a strange behavior in our NC installation. We’ve realized that any kind of uploaded file bigger than 10MB keeps its original modified date, what we understand isn’t a correct behavior. All files under 10MB, NC changes its modified date for the current date/time at time to upload, what we understand is the correct behavior.

Could anyone tell me why is this happening and how to fix it?

For example, its a big problem when using “File Retention” app. If uploaded files are bigger than 10MB (NC keeps the original modified date) and file’s modified date is prior to “File Retention” specified days (for example, 1 year ago), the file is deleted by “File Retention” app.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks in advance!
Albert

Hello,

I did some additional tests, and here’s what I’ve found:

  • Chrome for Windows (v73.0.3683.86)
    Uploads bigger than 10MB keeps original modified date.
    Uploads smaller than 10MB modified date/time changes to current.

  • Microsoft Edge (Windows 10 1803)
    All upload’s modified date/time changes to current.

We assume that Edge’s behavior is the correct one. We didn’t found how to solve it in Chrome.

Thanks!

I can reproduce this with NC 15 on Firefox (win 10). Please file a bug report on https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues
