ℹ️ Support
1

I did the upgrade NC12 via web installer. Everything but theming app was upgraded successfully.
Each time I access my NC installation the updater starts again and tries to update theming app.
But if fails with this message:

InvalidArgumentException: $absolutePath must be relative to “files”

I installed NC in a new folder and moved config + data into it. It is now working again. No idea what was wrong with my old installation…

Hello, I do have exactly the same issue.

The ticket is flaged as “SOLVED”. Can you please tell me how you have solved it?

Excuse me I have overread your explanation.

I guess that this is a permission issue. I will try a chown -R on the NC folder.

I will report afterwards.

unfortunately this isn´t changing the situation.

no impact by doing that.

Do have anyone further ideas?

Oh bugger, you’re right. That’s my fault, that title had me think you were continuing a conversation rather than starting new one. (Do carry on with it over there)
