No WebDAV to NextCloud instances

[punk-t]

Describe the bug

When trying to connect to my selfhosted NextCloud instance an "address not found" error is shown. In fact the address is reachable and checked via browser. As a detail: When the WebDAV window pops up a HTTPS address is suggested in the address field, but after entering my HTTPS address, the entry changes to HTTP. My server redirects HTTP requests to HTTPS.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have NC installed, WebDAV enabled & checked
2. Start fresh installed or factory reset 2fast
3. Ignore/skip tutorial
4. press 'new data file'
5. press 'use WebDAV'
6. enter server address and valid credentials
7. See the error

Expected behavior

An errorless connect to my NC instance ;)

Sorry for the late reply. How you call up the address? Is there an extra port in the address or is the dav call accessible in a sub-address?

[punk-t]

I can call any folder or file via WebDAV. For testing I called https://cloud.{fancydomainname}.de/remote.php/dav/files/punkt via browser and logged in. The message This is the WebDAV interface. It can only be accessed by WebDAV clients such as the Nextcloud desktop sync client. suggests a functional WebDAV service.

I copied the WebDAV address to 2fast address field (including HTTPS), error is shown and address field changed to HTTP.

Ah I see, the problem is here, that the status.php of the nextcloud service cannot be reached. My method tries to add the status.php to your address, which fails. If you remove the ...remote.php/dav/files/punkt part, it should work.

Address:
https://cloud.<your-name>.de/index.php/login

Status page of your server:
https://cloud.<your-name>.de/status.php/

In the future I will also add the support that if the status page requires a login, the login can be executed. Described in #151

[punk-t]

I think I'm giving up. I tried

• https://cloud.punk-t.de/
• https://cloud.punk-t.de/index.php/login
• https://cloud.punk-t.de/status.php/

neither worked.

I already read #151 but did not know how to take a solution on this.

Why is the "address not found" shown and why changes any HTTPS-Address to HTTP?

Are there any further logfiles or anything I could check?

[jp-weber]

I am sorry that there are still problems. The error message address not found can be regarded as generic. This has been addressed and further improved in the current preview of version 1.3.5 and the next preview versions. As well as a better error logging, which is in v.1.3.5. With this version I had no problems with the server call and the query of the status page.

The log is accessible as a menu item via settings/functions or via cmd: https://github.com/2fast-team/2fast/wiki/Open-(error)-log-via-cmd

Okay, thanks. I try to create an error log file for further analyzing :)
