Changelog for ownCloud Desktop Client 5.2.0 (2023-11-27)

The following sections list the changes in ownCloud Desktop Client 5.2.0 relevant to ownCloud admins and users.

Summary

  • Bugfix - Fix url resolution for app provider: #11296
  • Bugfix - Fix crash on unhandled status code on rename check: #11379

Details

  • Bugfix - Fix url resolution for app provider: #11296

    We fixed a bug in the url resolution for the app provider. If owncloud is installed to a non root directory we computed a wrong url for the app provider urls. This could trigger a connection validation in the client, which intern triggered a request to the app provider. Reulting in an endless loop rendering the client unusable.

    https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/11296

  • Bugfix - Fix crash on unhandled status code on rename check: #11379

    We fixed a bug that caused the application to crash instead of just aborting the current sync.

Changelog for ownCloud Desktop Client 5.1.2 (2023-11-10)

The following sections list the changes in ownCloud Desktop Client 5.1.2 relevant to ownCloud admins and users.

Summary

  • Bugfix - Fix crash when keychain job takes longer than expected: #11361

Details

  • Bugfix - Fix crash when keychain job takes longer than expected: #11361

    In 5.1.1, we introduced a timeout for keychain jobs that killed them when their execution time exceeded 5 seconds and log this to allow debugging of problems related to secrets handling.

    Apparently, there are valid cases in which these jobs can take longer than the expected timeout, e.g., when the user needs to unlock their keychain first or configure it otherwise.

    We now let the jobs run indefinitely and log every 5 seconds whether the job is still running.
