Updating
It is quite important for operators to check this file before updating their production instances, as it may contain information that is critical for good continuity of the services.
Kinds of breaking changes
Nextcloud upgrades
Nextcloud upgrades must be carried out in a very specific order, if you follow DD closely you should not have issues with this on 2023 and beyond.
However, if you run an older instance, please find the 2022-12 - Nextcloud 24 section on this document, and follow the commands closely.
Further major upgrades will be documented here too, but they should have little to no impact.
Important changes in reverse chronological order
2023
2023-03 - Nextcloud 25.0.5 + NC Docker rework
Update version to 25.0.5 and rework its docker image.
The image now manages volumes and configuration in a better fashion, thanks to that we achieve an image that is closer to the original one, but gets the plugins that we want and the configuration that we want for integration with DD.
You can now define BBB_HOST and BBB_API_SECRET as variables in dd.conf,
which are used to configure the corresponding plugin on Nextcloud.
You can also define a list of custom plugins to enable/disable in Nextcloud
with the dd.conf variables: NEXTCLOUD_PLUGINS_ENABLE,
NEXTCLOUD_PLUGINS_DISABLE. See dd.conf.sample for more information.
If upgrading from previous versions, you probably will want to check the
permissions assigned to the user_saml plugin directory.
You can also force its reinstallation with proper permissions with:
# Usually SRC_FOLDER in dd.conf is /opt/DD/src
rm -rf "${SRC_FOLDER:-/opt/DD/src}/nextcloud/custom_apps/user_saml/"
# Restart the NC container (only if previous command runs after upgrade)
# docker-compose restart dd-apps-nextcloud-app
