NC 16 & Group folders 4: Can't move files or folders between different group folders

[jpbraun]

It is not possible to move files or folders between different group folders ever if the group folders have the same permissions.

I am having the same issue moving files or folders from a non-group-folder to a folder.

I am also seeing an error in the nextcloud logs.

I am trying to move the file "test-log-for-git.txt" from the Folder "Dokumente" which is owned by my user and shared to another user to a group folder "Dokumente-Test" which is available to a group with both users and full access.

Same happens from the Nextcloud root directory of my user for the file "test-log-for-git2.txt" to the same directory "Dokumente-Test"

I am aware that I could simply copy and paste the files via a client, but I want to keep the tags, versions etc of my files and because of this want to move the files.

Creating files in the group folder works, moving files via a desktop client delivers a 500 error in the client.

Nextcloud version Nextcloud 15.0.7
Group folder version 3.0.2
Server setup debian stretch as lxd container with apache, mariadb, redis

[icewind1991]

@jpbraun do you have advanced permissions enabled for the folders?

[jpbraun]

@icewind1991 Yes. Both folders have advanced permissions.

[jpbraun]

It is probably another problem. I can't open or download the files. I tried deleting and changing the permissions and much more.

I just tried the same for nextcloud 16 and group folders 4 on debian buster. I am getting the same error and cannot move files from non-group-folders to group folders. As jpbraun is describing a slightly different problem I am wondering if I should open a new issue.
Also I tried with and without advanced permissions and it won't work.

Are group folders implemented through external storages? If yes, then maybe this has to do with external storage support. That's at least where I faced very similar problems moving files into and out of external folders: nextcloud/server#15227

[jpbraun]

Our group folders are not implemented through external storage.
I disabled the App "External storage support". Same problem as before.

[langfingaz]

Hm ok, I just read that folders will appear as external storage in the README file of this groupfolders project (last bullet point under Notes), but I'm not a developer and don't know the actual implementation of how the group folders are handled in Nextcloud.

Maybe that's because they have a special icon and are configured in the admin panel instead of creating them in the files - this is also the same for external storage.

[jkoopmann]

Just hit the very same problem which unfortunately leaves this useless for me at the moment.... Any ideas on this so far?

[ElmarJongerius]

Same issue. Group folders are really important for our use, but they started misbehaving.
Moving files (on Win7 / Win10) is problematic, as is renaming.

[Vitriia]

I have the same issue on my side.
I have :

• Decrypted all my files
• Disabled encryption
• Disabled the encryption app

And after it's worked fine. I think there is an issue between the Encryption app and the Group Folder app

[pierreozoux]

encryption is not yet supported #912

and the move part is duplicate of #243
