I am running grapheneos and got nc from fdroid if it matters. I also use nc on my local network only.

So I could not find logs that pointed to any specific file giving the errors. Still I took the advice that it might have to do with file names. That made me suspect it had to do with my music folder which has some foreign music, so i renamed files with a special character. So far it seems that was it. This was odd because those files have been there and synced for a while, but the message was not happening until recently. Still wanted to update in case someone else has this issue there is some resolution that might be helpful.

So I couldn’t really find what are the offending filenames, but they were from the music folder. I guess I didn’t mention that that was the most recent folder I set as a two way sync. I get most of my music from yt-dl and naturally wanted to have it on both my laptop and phone. I since have discovered Power Ampache 2 . It is a music player and it can just stream and download your music on your Next Cloud. So far it works well and I have no more errors regarding filenames as I no longer need the Next Cloud app to do a two way sync.

      I agree. In principle Nextcloud is a great idea and project but it has a lot of issues that make maintaining a pain. I had it for over 2 years and at every update it was painfull. I gave up and moved to Syncthing+Radicale. Is there something I miss? Yes, the ability to share as Syncthing doesn’t allow sharing.

        Syncthing doesn’t allow sharing Like, between users? You can set up a shared folder with that user, although I know it’s not the same.

        I’ve recently been made aware of Copyparty, which is a web GUI for serving files, with great access control, and the main dev reported people have been running it over a Syncthing-synced directory without any issues. Has an Android app too. I don’t have any need for sharing over HTTP right now, but if I did, that would be my go-to.

      What should I use if I just want dumb file storage that is accesible from any device (linux/windows/android) remotely? I’m already self hosting a media server if that matters

    I really want to like Nextcloud, but it had way way too many issues and limitations for me the last time I set it up (May, I think?)

      I switched to OpenCloud a month or two ago and it’s been much better overall. A bit of a pain to set up but now it’s running smooth, does everything I need it to do and is much more performant than Nextcloud was for me.

    Eek, I’m moving towards nextcloud (and away from Google fast as possible). Is there a better all-in-one groupware + files + collab + office apps suite out there?

    It does appear that nextcloud’s devs are eyeballs deep in php tech debt, so their pace of development and integration has slowed.

    It’s so big that none of their FOSS components are going to be #1 on their own.

    Recently upgraded the version and had to allow untested app versions (which had just disappeared) because they hadn’t been updated yet. That’s a weird problem and yeah, I don’t really want to be beta tester everytime I try and open a document.

    They also don’t really have a nice docker compose based deployment yet.

    But I couldn’t be happier to be leaving google in the dust, so there’s that.
