Do any of you have that one service that just breaks constantly? I'd love to love Nextcloud, but it sure makes that difficult at times (lemmy.world)

This is probably what I'm doing wrong. I'm using linuxserver's docker which should be okay to auto update, but it just continuously degrades over time with updates until it becomes non-functional. Random login failures, logs failing to load, file thumbnails disappearing, the goddamn Collabora office docker that absolutely refuses to work for more than one week, etc.

I just nuke the NC docker and database and start from scratch every year or so.

The problem is, that there are at least two, completely separate update processes going on.

NC updates its internal file structure from time to time, which should be done by NC itself, but isn't activated by default, so you have to run an upgrade script yourself.

Separate from that is the database. I'm not sure, how mariadb handles it, but postgres definitely needs a entirely offline upgrade script on every update.

Absolutely bonkers, if you ask me.
