Hi,
Home Nextcloud user here, running Nextcloud 21 on my multi-use home server. I recently upgraded nextcloud from v20.whatever to 21.0.4, having noticed that it had moved into stable. After a week where all seemed to go fine, I upgraded my Ubuntu server to PHP8.0, which also seemed to go mostly fine, apart from a few niggling little issues. I got them all sorted out, and everything seemed to stabilise and be working fine for a few days, but then suddenly my wife’s account started getting a Gateway 504 Timeout every time she logs in. We can create and log in fine with a test account, and my account logs in fine, too, but her account keeps getting this annoying 504 error and cannot log in.
I use an OpenLDAP server for authentication, version : 2.4.49
Both accounts are set up the same in Nextcloud and OpenLDAP.
I’ve tested both our logins on her Windows machine and my Linux workstation, with different browsers. My account always logs in Ok (if slowly), while hers gets the 504 Gateway Timeout.
Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 21.0.4, 21.0.4.1
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Ubuntu 20.04
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): nginx/1.20.1
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 8.0
The issue you are facing:
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N):Y
Steps to replicate it:
- User logs in as normal

I’m not seeing any of these errors on my login attempts, just on hers.
For both accounts, the Openldap logs shows a BIND attempt with our userids that returns:
slapd debug conn=##### op=2 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text=
I’m tearing my hair out. I don’t understand why one account is failing and one is working.
Rolling back to PHP7.4 doesn’t seem to be possible. If I change that setting in NGINX config file, the whole server fails to operate.
