Impersonate not working after update NC to 20.0.4

Closed this issue · 6 comments

After updating Nextcloud to version 20.0.4 on Ubuntu server I can no longer find the "impersonate" item in the three-dot menu. The application is installed, I tried to remove and reinstall it, but as an administrator I can no longer use it.
The admin user is in the admin group, I tried to make him an administrator of the other groups as well and to insert the other groups in the impersonate user list, nothing has changed.

I am on 20.0.9, and it's also not working...

Edit: I forgot to mention that in all prior versions (12-19), this worked as expected, and all I did was a standard upgrade to v20, and realized now that it is no longer working. I am not aware of any other changes I made that could have caused it to stop working. I am the system admin as I have always been.

+1, Same here, Update to +20 Impersonate menu option of user is not available any more.

+1, Same here.

However, I could fix it by running these commands:

[www@s16 ~/nextcloud]$ php occ app:remove impersonate
impersonate disabled
impersonate 0 removed

[www@s16 ~/nextcloud]$ rm -rf apps/impersonate

[www@s16 ~/nextcloud]$ php occ app:install impersonate
impersonate 1.8.0 installed
impersonate enabled

This happened to me (or I realized it) too @ v22.2.3
I disabled the app and re-enabled it within the app menu. The impersonate menu option re-appeared - works normal.

total log out after impersonate, instead of going back to admin account

Closing as fixed. Report back if not working in recent versions (23+).
