RC1s of 28.0.9 and 29.0.5

[skjnldsv]

Maintenance releases of 28.0.9 and 29.0.5 are coming next Thursday and RCs for those are now available on our download server.

As always, help with testing is very much welcome!

We updated our servers, did our tests, and the release candidates seem pretty decent. Still, give it a whirl and report back here so we’re even more sure that it’s good to go! If you notice anything out of order, please report back on the appropriate Github repository!

After the upgrade from 29.0.4 to 29.0.5 RC1 I see in the NC Admin Overview

“One or more mimetype migrations are available. Occasionally new mimetypes are added to better handle certain file types. Migrating the mimetypes take a long time on larger instances so this is not done automatically during upgrades. Use the command occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive to perform the migrations.”

After run :

sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive

The problem has not been resolved and the message still appears.

Just upgraded to 29.0.5 and get the same message. repair step does not resolve the issue .

Same issue here

[Pierr0t]

Same issue here on 2 different servers after upgrading to 29.0.5 (final) , I “ran occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive” twice to no avail …

[B0r1sBack]

Hi, same problem for me …

[rodinux]

Hello same here for me… seems a bug for a lot of poeple…

[rodinux]

I think this is not the correct post (RC1) to explain this… prhaps here Warning after upgrading to 28.0.9 or 29.0.5

[Ali_Razi]

Hello, I have too same problem after update to 29.0.5 from 29.0.4

[NextCees]

Same problem here…

[BillTNZ]

Also getting the warning “One or more mimetype migrations are available…” and the given occ command runs without error but does not clear the warning.

[bb77]

This has already been fixed.

See my post here on how to manually apply the patch.

[skjnldsv]

Mimetype warning issue: [Bug]: Warning: One or more mimetype migrations are available · Issue #47359 · nextcloud/server · GitHub
No need to add comments saying “me too” , we’re aware of it and it’s been fixed within 24h too

Thank you all for the help!

[bb77]

@skjnldsv

been fixed within 24h too

Thanks for that.

And now, if there was an official hotfix release that would allow us to patch our instances without getting a ‘much more frightening’ red integrity check warning instead of a ‘yellow’ mimetipe warning, everything would be perfect
