I’m getting “ **ReflectionException** **Class "OCA\Dashboard\Controller\DashboardApiController** ” does not exist, or could not parse URI" error after 29.0.0 update. Nextcloud version: **29.0.0** Operating system and version: **Ubuntu 22.04** Apache version: **2.4.52** PHP version: **8.3.6** ---

Try restarting your web server (or FPM, if using). May be PHP caching if it’s an upgraded instance. ---

Yes! I just upgraded both Nextcloud and PHP. I did restart FPM. If the problem persists I’ll update the thread, thank you! ---

Do you have the dashboard app disabled? It was already reported once to me that the problem happens when you have an app installed but disabled. ---

Yes, I tried and didn’t work. I will downgrade the PHP and try again. Thanks! ---

Downgrading anything (except for the server version) won’t fix anything. This problem is a bug that should be fixed by [fix(Router): Stop loading routes of disabled apps by provokateurin · Pull Request #44797 · nextcloud/server · GitHub](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/44797). ---

This rather looks like your autoloaders in the dev setup are wrong or something else. The files app can’t even be disabled so it can’t be the same problem. Another thing might be opcache, so please restart apache/php-fpm ---

Another user reported problems as well and it was due to having old files that are not even part of Nextcloud anymore. If you encounter this issue please check the last modified date of the class/file that is mentioned in the error message. It will likely be much older than any of the other files.
