Ladies and gentlemen,
since upgrading to “Nextcloud Hub 26 Winter”, Nextcloud signals: “Temporary directory /tmp/nextcloudtemp is not present or writable”.
I encountered this behaviour first when the app: “Music” ceased to work (just a black pane). For about 18 hours I was able to get it working again, by creating the directory, but not any more. Nextcloud still logs "Temporary directory /tmp/nextcloudtemp is …”, although it is there and I made it writeable for “world”.

I contacted the developer “@paulijar” and he also had the error with Nextcloud Hub 26 Winter, however with him it disappeared after he created the directory once and then deleted it.
you started a topic in development category. This category is intended for active developers of the core or apps in the Nextcloud ecosystem.
From the description in your topic, it is not clear if you are seeking help and advice about a concrete problem you have or you want to actually develop the corresponding solution.
Please specify explicitly the required information to help you best. These are:
What you want to achieve
What you have done so far
What is failing
What you expect from the forum community
Without additional information the community members cannot help you in an efficient manner. Please keep in mind that the help here in the forum are mostly based on work of volunteers and thus it is just fair to reduce the burden on them.
If you accidentally posted in the category, just give a hint and a moderator can move the corresponding category.
Especially, if you want to report an issue (like a found bug) for the corresponding developers to address, this is unfortunately not the right location: most devs will not likely stumble upon the issues in the forum. Such issues are better tracked on GitHub in the appropriate issue tracker. Probably, this is the issue tracker of the server but could be another one as well.
Hello christianlupus,
sorry I’m new here and have no idea of the available categories. My message is meant as an issue that should be addressed by a developer. Since I have no experience with nextcloud - except using it - I’m quite sure I can’t fix it. Of course I’m willing to support debugging and error correction, however, currently I have no idea what more information I can supply, so please be so kind to ask for anything I might have missed.
Cheers Mark.
Sorry, I can call the “support template” and it does say in several fields: “PASTE”, however pasting or writing in these fields is not possible. I can enlarge the fields, but to no avail. I was logged in.
