Hi, Tried updating from 16.0.1 to 16.0.3 and it seems to have failed. I thought it was a permissions issue but I can’t seem to find it. All files and dirs have apache and 755 set to them… any ideas. The update stops on “delete old files”. Also in the error of the update it references a path “/var…

What’s “ls -l” in the themes directory? If there is no examples directory, you may want to try to mkdir the examples directory to see if that allows the upgrade script to delete it and move on. I wouldn’t expect the non-existence of a directory to stop a script which is trying to remove said direc…

Thanks for the recommendation, these are the contents of the updater directory: -rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache apache 63216 Jun 21 16:42 index.php -rwxr-xr-x. 1 apache apache 599747 Jun 21 16:42 updater.phar I can try to make the dir as you mention, problem is that the path is shortened… (updater/…/themes…

No luck so far, but thanks for the suggestion!

I am having this same issue! Update gets stuck on deletion task. Mine gets stuck on Could not rmdir: /var/www/html/updater/../ocs but it’s essentially the same thing you are seeing. I simply cannot get past this and turning maintenance mode does not help. My next cloud is essentially unusable. Have …

Same issue here, and how lovely that there is absolutely no follow-up on what is basically a show-stopping fatality - leaving the NextCloud instance in an unusable state, with what appears to be zero help.

This is still happening with the current version 18.0.7 - only way to recover is to perform a perillious manual upgrade. The automatic updater should simply be disabled.

Necroing this because it still happens! :x: Delete old files: Could not rmdir: /var/www/html/updater/…/resources “/var/www/html/updater/” only has 2 files in it: “index.php” and “updater.phar” And because there’s a “/…/” in the path I can’t create a folder just to get past this stupid error.

@tonytonyistony Did you ever find a fix for this? I have been working on this for 3 days and about to get rid of nextcloud. I’m in the “Update in Process.” error and NextCloud will do nothing. I am using unRaid and have played with permissions and upgraded/downgraded images, etc… I cannot get i…

@theloaf Did you ever get yours fixed? I’m having the same issue and been working on it for days. Thanks
