Let’s put together what‘s scattered across the forum:

Problem description:
Then i was doing backups using duplicatai using the webdav and after a month the backups kept saying server locked. This was a next cloud issue and i made a second location and set that as backup destination and its been working. Any idea what or how it was locked preventing the job to work?
And
I am trying to do a backup to a directory on nextcloud using the webdav protocol. This worked for a bit until I kept see backup failed, server locked. I asked duplicati and they said def a next cloud. So to troubleshoot I made another directory and another backup using webdav like originally and thus so far the backups have been working. Any idea what happened with the original locale being locked? Or even what that means?

(Is it okay if i ask for help?)
I do not understand how it is okay for a single user not to be able to use nextcloud at all. Been trying to get help for months and it seems like that will not be happening. I am using duplicati to backup. Duplicati keeps returning a locked 423 error. No one has any idea why. Duplicati blames nextcloud and nextcloud blames my lack of information.
I remove the backup job and recreate it and it works fine. Then after a undisclosed amount of time it locks up again and I can not backup. I have no idea here.
And yes when it is locked I can use nextcloud all day without issue
I use duplicati to run backups. Duplicati keeps after a certain amount of backups says server is locked, 423 code. Acording to duplicati this is nextcloud issue. I have tried for months to get assistance and I can not. So now I am willing to pay someone to fix this.

Hope I haven’t missed anything important there …
So what I understand, that Nextcloud is indeed usable for you, but you have problems using Nextcloud as a Target for Duplicati backups, because after a while you receive WebDAV 423 (Locked) error. I don’t have any experience with using NC as target for Duplicati, so only suggestions. You might want to check what you use for file locking for Nextcloud (search for redis). Also check if you have any sync client active which might lock the files (Nextcloud desktop?!)
