Nextcloud Client hangs under macOS Catalina

danb35 · December 17, 2021, 11:34am

For the last couple of weeks, my Nextcloud client (v3.3.6, the most current available for download) has been hanging on my Mac (running macOS Catalina 10.15.7). I’m running Nextcloud server 22.2.3 on my own server. The client doesn’t sync, show a menu bar icon, show a dialog, or appear to do anything else–it just sits there consuming one full core of CPU:

I can kill that process and re-launch the application, but it does the same thing (though occasionally without taking 100% CPU). I’ve tried reinstalling the client–the new installation continues to behave the same way. I’ve rebooted several times–each time I reboot, the client auto-starts as it should, but continues to behave in the same way. I don’t see anything in the Console application logging errors–at least that I understand–with Nextcloud:

Kind of at a loss for what else to be checking here–any suggestions?

Edit: Poking around through the nextcloud.app contents, I see the nextcloudcmd binary. So let’s try it:

Edit 2: and notwithstanding the error message reported above, the system is serving a current, valid Let’s Encrypt cert.

I had a similar problem for the past month or so, more or less since I installed client version 3.4.x (might have started at 3.4.1): sync would get stuck with high CPU usage and “not responding” red line in Activity Monitor.
The fun thing is: I tried to run the command line client in debug mode as you show and… it run correctly plus after that the regular client too started again to work without getting stuck.

I suspect there was a file with some illegal filename that now is synced… but how to find it?
