Nextcloud version: 24.0.7
Operating system and version: Almalinux 8
Apache or nginx version: Apache 2.4.37
PHP version: 8.1.11
The issue you are facing: I have integrated my Nextcloud installation with an Active Directory server (Windows Server 2019 Standard) . I created a second Active Directory with the same Windows Server version and setup replication with my main Active Directory, so both servers to have the same data.
I went to LDAP/AD integration, clicked the Advanced button and entered the IP Address and Port of the backup Active Directory at fields Backup (Replica) Host and Backup (Replica) Port .
I shut down the main Active Directory and Nextcloud stopped responding (it was trying to load and then throwed a 504 error) .
It should have switched automatically to the replica Active Directory.
When i set the replica Active Directory as the main Active Directory, everything works fine.
I have seen ldap switch over to backup server does not work · Issue #14159 · nextcloud/server · GitHub , but:
a) It is not clear to me at which line to put the fix
b) I don’t want to apply such fix, since the file will be overwritten at future Nextcloud updates
Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? : Yes
Steps to replicate it:
-
Enter the replica Active Directory IP at Backup (Replica) Host and the port at Backup (Replica) Port
-
Shutdown the main Active Directory. Nextcloud will hang.
