The issue you are facing:

Updater shows an error saying

Check for expected files
The following extra files have been found:

    cache
    nextcloud.log

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (Y/N): Y

Steps to replicate it:

  1. Login to Nextcloud
  2. Go to admin settings and Open Updater
  3. Start update

The output of your Nextcloud log in Admin > Logging:

Nothing related to update. Just some old (from last week) logs.

The output of your config.php file in /path/to/nextcloud (make sure you remove any identifiable information!):

Not required.

The output of your Apache/nginx/system log in /var/log/____:

Not required.

I deleted the nextcloud.log file which was empty anyways. But I am not sure if it is a good idea to delete the entire cache folder. I thought this folder is part of Nextcloud installation. I did not manually add it. And also whenever I retry the upload, nextcloud.log is created automatically. So I’m not sure what’s really going on here.

Any thoughts on this issue I am having?

just searched the forum… and so i came up with
this and that
and maybe even more…

Thank you for trying to help but as I said in OP, deleting the log file does not correct the problem for me. In addition, I do not have the Logging extension enabled.

I have exactly the same problem. Last time I fixed it by manual update but it’s annoying that I have to do it again now.
I think that logging to syslog and deleting nextcloud.log could help. link
Nevertheless I don’t have chance to try it today, but as soon as I try it, I’ll let you know.

Yep, changing log type to syslog type and then deleting nextcloud.log worked perfectly for me. :slight_smile:

I guess that you can just delete cache as I don’t see it in my nextcloud folder.

Hope your update will be successful.
