Nextcloud 27.1.2 Update - /etc/webapps/nextcloud/.htaccess.pacnew - triggers new Admin Overview Warning
by David C. Rankin 07 Oct '23

07 Oct '23

All, The new update for Nextcloud 27.1.2 causes a new Admin Warning when the new .htaccess files is incorporated. After the update and after 'occ maintenance:update:htaccess' the following warning is triggered in the Administrative Settings Overview check that runs: There are some warnings regarding your setup. Your web server is not properly set up to resolve "/nextcloud/ocm-provider/". This is most likely related to a web server configuration that was not updated to deliver this folder directly. Please compare your configuration against the shipped rewrite rules in ".htaccess" for Apache or the provided one in the documentation for Nginx at it's documentation page ↗. On Nginx those are typically the lines starting with "location ~" that need an update. The problem seems to surround the line: RewriteRule ^ocm-provider/?$ /index.php [QSA,L] which is present in the .htaccess.pacnew, but not present in the original .htaccess. Restoring the original .htaccess fixes the issue immediately resulting in "All checks passed" Since the line "RewriteRule ^ocm-provider/?$ /index.php [QSA,L]" is above the comment stating: #### DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ABOVE THIS LINE #### Is this an issue with the update package that needs to be fixed? I generally try to incorporate all .pacnew configs (at least go through them and migrate any changes). There are a number of changes in the new .htaccess.pacnew file above the comment line, so that leaves me questioning whether my current .htaccess is optimal even though the overview checks show "All checks passed". -- David C.

archinstall mystery
by Jude DaShiell 06 Oct '23

06 Oct '23

I used it earlier since I couldn't make sense of the efi and uefi encyclopedias in the Installation-guide. I now have a disk with two partitions on it first one being fat32 esp. The machine is uefi 64 capable. For that reason I can't figure out how to run grub-install on the latest update of grub. Does archinstall install for bios by default? If so, I think I can have grub-install ignore platform and install in /boot/grub with a couple options. I used the archinstall that was on the latest arch release and managed to get a working system by putting enough packages on the essential packages line. -- Jude <jdashiel at panix dot com> "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

An in my opinion dubious dependency chain
by Ralf Mardorf 27 Sep '23

27 Sep '23

Hi, to have a wider choice of media players I installed deepin-movie and deepin-music a long time ago, some dependencies were required, hence I had the following Deepin related packages installed: deepin-desktop-base deepin-movie deepin-music deepin-qt-dbus-factory deepin-qt5integration deepin-qt5platform-plugins dtkgui dtkwidget An obsolete package I already removed earlier was originally also installed: deepin-wayland IMO this is a reasonable amount of dependencies. When I tried to upgrade my Arch install today, by running sudo pacman -Syu this happens: :: There are 2 providers available for DEEPIN-ANYTHING-MODULE: :: Repository extra 1) deepin-anything-arch 2) deepin-anything-dkms Media players require a kernel module? So I'm going to pretend that I'm okay with that. This is what happens [1]. Those two media player that were installed a long time ago together with the required dependencies now pull in a complete desktop environment including a file-manager, wallpapers etc.. It seems a bit dubious to me, hence I removed the Deepin stuff from my machine. Am I being overly suspicious? I'm interested in opinions.

Fwd: Does anyone have Fresh Nextcloud Install on PHP-legacy with cache working?

Yes, I agree with Dee - even with a second webserver as a frontend proxy (I recommend nginx), it's not like doing twice the work - the heavy lifting will be done in the container. There are some small overheads in CPU, a bit more in RAM, and then maybe storage is the most noticeable, but probably nothing compared to what NextCloud is using anyway. Paul

Any though of having archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync check for iptables and recommend rule?
by David C. Rankin 24 Sep '23

24 Sep '23

Archdevs, Depending on how restrictive the iptables rules, if the IP for archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync falls into a blocked range, the logs quickly fill. An idea is to have the service insert a temporary rule to either (1) allow the IP for the sync check, or (2) allow established, related connections while the service runs. It may also be worth updating the wiki to provide model rules for iptables/nftables to allow archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync to run successfully. Just food for thought. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

New spurious journal entry begins 9/11 - DIGEST-MD5 common mech free
by David C. Rankin 22 Sep '23

22 Sep '23

All, There a number of reports from different distributions over time of spurious log messages of "XXXXX DIGEST-MD5 common mech free" that have been encountered with everything from mail packages to web servers. Starting September 11, this started on Arch with php-legacy installed. On this box I have 32 journals going back to April, 2023, After saving the entries from the journal, it's clear this error started on September 11 and that roughly corresponds to my setup of nextcloud on this box. The journal entries get quite chatty, e.g. Sep 22 06:55:25 2pi httpd[35305]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 22 06:58:34 2pi systemd[1]: Started Nextcloud; run cron.php.

Sep 22 07:13:36 2pi php-legacy[35525]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free There are a dozen or so on server startup and then when nextcloud runs it's cron job. Dumping the journal entries, it's clear when it started and it looks like most entries are due to php-legacy, but there are httpd and php-fpm-legacy in there as well e,g, $ jcnl | grep 'DIGEST-MD5 common mech free' > tmp/DIGEST-MD5commonMechFree.txt $ head tmp/DIGEST-MD5commonMechFree.txt Sep 11 02:44:53 2pi php-legacy[12486]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 02:49:53 2pi php-legacy[12526]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 02:54:53 2pi php-legacy[12558]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:00:03 2pi php-legacy[12589]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:05:03 2pi php-legacy[12727]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:10:03 2pi php-legacy[12763]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:15:03 2pi php-legacy[12798]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:20:13 2pi php-legacy[12895]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:25:13 2pi php-legacy[25576]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Sep 11 03:30:13 2pi php-legacy[25691]: DIGEST-MD5 common mech free Is this something of concern or just something that is chatty but does no harm? -- David C.

bash 5.2 and BASH_COMPAT question
by Genes Lists 19 Sep '23

19 Sep '23

Hi: I believe that bash 5.2 was/is held back due to incompatible Changes with 5.1 [1]. The obvious first thought would be to set BASH_COMPAT="5.1" globally and then update to the current 5.2 version. This would work for any shell which sees the BASH_COMPAT variable. User login shells, users running things which in turn invoke bash would get the variable passed down. Users who want to use the 5.2 features would have the ability to unset the variable - but recognizing the caveat below. I do see one caveat (may be others): When bash is invoked from a non-login shell without the BASH_COMPAT variable or from a tool which cleans it's env before invoking bash, those would need adjusting to set their own BASH_COMPAT variable should they depend on the 5.1 behavior or be changed to support 5.2 Which leads to: - do we have a list of tools that invoke bash but clean env variables before doing so? (pacman perhaps) - is their a task list of what needs to be done (either fix the incompatibilities or push the BASH_COMPAT variable down). - what else needs to be done to allow us to update to 5.2 Thoughts? thanks gene [1] https://github.com/bminor/bash/blob/master/COMPAT

gdm3 stalled

After an upgrade several months ago, gdm3 get stalled at each boot and gnome can't run properly. So, I've disabled gdm.service and gnome start properly without gdm. All the upgrade system in these months have not been able to solve. Could you help me to do an useful debug in order to solve? Thanks.
