Replace defective version 0.9.0 by 0.9.1=0.8?
Closed this issue · 5 comments
By accident I came to read your warning against using version 0.9.0. I went to check on my NC-instance and found out that I had already updated to that version as was suggested by the updater. I have deactivated since so this is my work-around.
However, I wonder what could have happened if I had not spotted this announcement by chance. Would it be a good idea to retract version 0.9.0 by replacing it by a "phony" version 0.9.1 which would in essence simply be the previous one from the 0.8 version? This way, version 0.9.0 could be removed from servers that had it installed semi-automatically by the very same procedure.
After studying the warning more carefully, I would rather have re-phrased the title of this issue to "Replace unsafe version (...)". Sorry if it should sound offensive which is not at all my intention.
No it's not offensive at all. As this issue arise I thought what could I do to notify all the users because Nextcloud doesn't offer a way to do so. So I decided to delete the version 0.9.0 from the Appstore and add a warning to the repository.
"Replace unsafe version (...)"
That's a very good idea I will do this but I will also add a recommendation to disable the app until this is resolved.

Would be a good possibility. I try to reproduce and solve this issue this evening if I'm not able to do so I will replace 0.9.0 with a 0.9.1 which is the old version 0.8.0.
I removed the app completely and replaced it with a dummy app with warnings to disable or remove the app.
Uh, that sounds really bad. Good luck with finding a solution! Sorry that I am not of any help when it comes to the actual code. However, I am sure that many people find this app an extremely valuable extension to Nextcloud.
It was necessary as I dont want to harm any data. Sadly, it's not possible to disable the app for all users via the app store. I hope with this I can reach all the users.
