Permission problems with upgrade to NC32 (without recognize app)

[PifPof73]

I do not have the recognize app installed and I do not see which areas causes the problem. The complete nextcloud folder and all subdirectories are owned by www-data:www-data (and it worked since v15 …):

sudo -u www-data php updater.phar

Did you also check the permissions? Are the files and folders actually writeable?

I had the same problem, but different files were listed for me. I can’t remember exactly which ones they were, and I didn’t look into why it happened. I just reset the permissions for all folders and files using the following Bash script:

NCINSTALLPATH="/path/to/nextcloud"
NCDATAPATH="/path/to/nextcloud-data"

sudo -u www-data php "$NCINSTALLPATH"/occ maintenance:mode --on
chown -R www-data:www-data "$NCINSTALLPATH"
chown -R www-data:www-data "$NCDATAPATH"
find "$NCDATAPATH"/ -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
find "$NCDATAPATH"/ -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;
find "$NCINSTALLPATH"/ -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
find "$NCINSTALLPATH"/ -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;
if [ -d "$NCINSTALLPATH/apps/notify_push" ]; then
chmod ug+x "$NCINSTALLPATH"/apps/notify_push/bin/x86_64/notify_push
fi
if [ -d "$NCINSTALLPATH/apps/recognize" ]; then
chmod ug+x "$NCINSTALLPATH"/apps/recognize/bin/node
fi
sudo -u www-data php "$NCINSTALLPATH"/occ maintenance:mode --off

Depending on the number of folders and files, this process may take a while. If you only want to apply it to the affected files, just run the following commands for the parent folder of the listed files:

chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/parent-folder/
find /path/to/parent-folder/ -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
find /path/to/parent-folder/ -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;

This worked like a charme!

Thx for the quick and good support.
