Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 20.0.7
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): RHEL 7.9
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): unsure
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 7.4.15
I have a reproducible and very annoying problem with my Nextcloud installation. Whenever I use the “Nextcloud Text” markdown editor, I get an error after about 30-180s of use. It always works fine in the beginning, but after given amount of time I get a “File could not be loaded. Please check your internet connection. (Retry)” error in the UI and I can’t continue editing the file until I refresh the browser (after which everything works fine again for a couple of seconds/minutes).
I inspected my console/network traffic in the Dev Tools while this happens:
There’s regular requests to /sync and /push endpoints, which alle work fine and return 200. But suddently, out of nowhere, the requests to these endpoints fail with a “HTTP 412 Precondition failed”. In the body of the 412 responsse I see a “CSRF check failed”.
The output of your config.php file in /path/to/nextcloud (make sure you remove any identifiable information!):
<?php

'memcache.distributed' => '\\OC\\Memcache\\Redis',
'htaccess.RewriteBase' => '/',
);
Nothing in the server/error logs at the time of this happening.
I know this forum is not for the Nextcloud App, but the given error is thrown in Nextcloud core, not in the app, so I thought this might still be the right place.
Found some other threads with people having a HTTP412 error during logout, but it seems to be unrelated. My logout works fine. However I feel like I sometimes also get this error during browsing files, but I am not able to recreate it as easily as the error int Nextcloud Text.
Any ideas why the CSRF error is thrown right out of nowhere?
