Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):

Log entries

Nextcloud

Please provide the log entries from your Nextcloud log that are generated during the time of problem (via the Copy raw option from Administration settings->Logging screen or from your nextcloud.log located in your data directory). Feel free to use a pastebin/gist service if necessary.

Nothing in the logs

Configuration

Nextcloud

The output of occ config:list system or similar is best, but, if not possible, the contents of your config.php file from /path/to/nextcloud is fine (make sure to remove any identifiable information!):

Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response

  • Use the preformatted text formatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output.
  • If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
    • If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.
  • Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.

Hi, I’m afraid without logs there’s not much to say. At the bottom of the system page there the api link, if you open that one in your browser do you see stats?

Hi - nope, that’s exactly where I don’t see the stats

OK I fixed it!!! Took me a while:
So the issue was new hardened systemd directives in Apache 2.4.66:
ProtectProc=invisible was blocking Nextcloud’s serverinfo app from reading /proc

What to do:

  1. Create override to allow /proc access
    sudo systemctl edit apache2.service

Add:

[Service]
ProtectProc=default
ProcSubset=all

Save, close the file

  1. Reload daemon, restart apache:
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    sudo systemctl restart apache2

  2. Everything works as usual!
