Passwords App Update Fails After 2 Minutes

[robc]

Just updated Nextcloud from 28.0.1 to 28.0.3. During the update, the Passwords app update failed. I retried from the Apps screen and it failed again.

Looks like the app server is extremely slow. Is there a mirror server I can use in the USA?

p.s. Firefox shows git.mdns.eu providing a transfer rate of 12 KB/sec

Someone somewhere in the universe said this:

Community Document Server - cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 120000 millisecond

What worked to me was to change curl’s timeout at the time of invoking it by software installer in: [path to nextcloud]/lib/private/Installer.php. You will see a line that says something like: // Download the release $tempFile = $this->tempManager->getTemporaryFile('.tar.gz'); $timeout = $this->isCLI ? 0 : 120; $client = $this->clientService->newClient(); Change the 120 (seconds) value and put something bigger or remove the condition and leave it always in 0 (unlimited, but perhaps not the be…

Click link and read format better form there, but you get the idea.

Just guessing at something to try but hope it helps.

Thanks for that, but I think a better solution is needed. Either the app server needs more bandwidth or the author needs to set up a mirror.

Same here. I tried several times, always the same. But it’s only the passwords update which fails. The task update worked seemlessly.
