Can no longer share files or calendars with people, only with groups

[Pazu]

Although I have shared files and calendars with individual people (users) in the past, and they remain shared with those users, attempts to share additional items with those users now fails. ownCloud shows the message, “No people found” when I type in the username.

Expected behaviour

Share dialog should show results of JSON query for partially-typed username

Actual behaviour

"No person found" is shown for any input

Steps to reproduce

1. Access Share dialog of file or calendar
2. Type in partial username
3. Observe "No person found"

Just found this issue, by googling for "No person found". Got this message when trying to share pictures, with a person which is in the same group and can see the shared files but not the pictures in the gallery.

ownCloud 5.0.11 - upgrading to 5.0.12 did not help

My issue may be unrelated to yours, since I can find some individual users, but not all.

Could you please log the SQL statements created when doing the search. I am using sqlite and found no configuration option to turn on logging. For mysql this should be quite easy.

@lupusmeatus Sorry, only have access to my MySQL server via cPanel and it offers no access to SQL logging.

This is probably owncloud/core#5016

Closing as duplicate of owncloud/core#5016 then. Please reopen if it’s not fixed with 5.0.13
