I have no issues here. Check your repositories cat /etc/apk/repositories I know that for some reason the latest-stable branch was going to release candidates. I made a change here d468fc6. Try the below

#http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/latest-stable/main

http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.19/main

Thanks, the fix provided with the v3.19 repo worked, so I guess there is an upstream problem.

However there still seems to be an issue with the script, mine is unable to update:

I'm also unable to opt-out of that update, It somewhat forced me into that, as described above.

I can see yours is also still on v27.x and not v29.x

[tteck]

There are no issues with the script as I have shown. The script is using the Alpine Package Keeper (apk) for the installation. The version is currently 27.1.9 for Alpine 3.19 https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=nextcloud&branch=v3.19&repo=&arch=x86_64&maintainer=

[tteck]

[tteck]

A fresh install from this repository, should not create any issues.

[CrazyWolf13]

Thanks for clarification, could it be that nextcloud themself are trying tog et more users to update to their AI stuff?

Because to be honest, I've not touched nor changed a single thing, and the above screenshot appeared, as if auto-updates would be on.

[tteck]

I think that the issue started when their latest-stable branch introduced the Alpine v20-rc. You now have mixed packages, which doesn't work well. https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=nextcloud&branch=v3.20&repo=&arch=x86_64&maintainer=

Oh Yeah that seems to make a lot of sense.

Would you think editing the script to use latest (v3.20) repo and then reinstalling would solve the conflicts?

[tteck]

There is no Alpine v3.20 template.

[CrazyWolf13]

Oh I see, guess then we'd have to wait for that.

Thanks for the quick feedback and for maintainig those scripts.

[tteck]

🧐 As this issue is unrelated to the script, it is considered closed.

[CrazyWolf13]

According to this upstream repos should be fixed!

I updated the repositories manually to the latest, I ran then ran an apk update and apk upgrade followed by using the tteck script command in alpine which led me to the same error as you. This was to upgrade to nextcloud 29.0

Now when I try to log onto my cloudserver via the website I am stuck with the nextcloud maintenance window.

[CrazyWolf13]

Hmm strange, closing the maintenance mode is possible, but you probably just bricked your installation aswell!!

@tteck Possibly you can pin something, so this issue does not appear for any other users?

As much as I love the helper scrips, neither the alpine version nor nextcloudpi is what I want, so I'll switch to a manual installation with debian.

(If wished by tteck I can create a PR afterwards.)

[sic699]

im backup up and running after resintalling alpine-nextcloud no issues, I have not bothered to upgrade to 29.0 ill leave it as it is i just spent 3 hours fixing the new install up.

[CrazyWolf13]

@sic699 HSTS can be enabled on your reverse proxy or directly in the nextcloud apache server.

[sic699]

@CrazyWolf13 Ty everything is up and running luckily I had backups of my config.php and my previous data folders/files from my previous nextcloud install.

[flyguy729]

Hello @sic699 . Found a solution to your problem. The reason it cannot upgrade is because your config.php file is still on version 27.x.x.x. You need to nano to /etc/nextcloud/config.php and edit it to the version on Alpine : https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=nextcloud&branch=v3.20&repo=&arch=&maintainer=
which is currently at 29.0.0-r0.

Once you change that, you can update it. Took me a while to figure this out but found the solution here. nextcloud/docker#1652

I also had the files_reminders error and your post help me fixed that so i thought of giving back (:
