> What is going on???

Sorry you ran into difficulty. Unfortunately, unless you fill out the [support template](https://help.nextcloud.com/t/support-template-please-use-this-when-you-request-support/137402) no one here will have the necessary details to provide you with any assistance. There are numerous possibilities and variables.

> I had to get a server admin to fix it last time and now I’ll have to do it again.

Self-hosting means you’re the server admin. For those that don’t wish to be their own server admin, however, there are third-party managed hosting solutions for Nextcloud.

Generally the server admin is the party that performs the upgrades due to the nature of Nextcloud. It’s not a typical consumer/web app.

If you have to get a server admin involved to fix things, make sure they are comfortable/acquainted with the specifics of Nextcloud Server administration. And also that they are able to either isolate the root cause (to avoid future occurrences!) and/or are at least willing reach out here with the appropriate details to try to get assistance.
