Nextcloud in browser errors with spaces on filenames

I can’t quite believe this is a bug and not something to do with my setup because I assume someone would have found and fixed it by now.

My Nextcloud instance is hosted from a domain similar to:
https://example.com/cloud/

Whenever I try to create a folder with spaces in the name (including “New Folder”) Nextcloud tells me that it couldn’t create the folder. I also can’t rename any existing files with spaces. The existing files were added on the commandline.

This is a complete fresh install replacing my owncloud, but that shouldn’t make a difference since the only thing I ported from one to the other was the user files. I was careful to strip out any caches etc.

The error I get is:

{"Message":"Requested uri 
(\/cloud\/remote.php\/webdav\/New%20folder) is out of base uri

I saw this error running php5. For other reasons I’ve just upgraded to 7.0.8-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 however the error is unchanged.

Just want to say that I’m seeing the exact same issue with 10.0.1.

If I roll back to 10.0.0 everything works as expected but any spaces in the names of either folders or files and I get errors with 10.0.1.

I’m running on PHP 7.0.12 from http://rpms.famillecollet.com/ on CentOS 7

If something breaks after an update, please report this directly on the bugtracker: Issues · nextcloud/server · GitHub

Okay I’ve raised this as an issue here:
