Upgrade to 5.0.6 broke calendar sharing for me
I did a web admin interface upgrade from 5.0.4 to 5.0.6 and now shared calendars are not showing up in the interface. Anyone else having this issue?

ownCloud 5
Made a fesh @Owncloud 5 installation on my server at home. Somewhen between oC 3 and oC 4 the updates from the git repository screwed up my old installation; now it's plain from the released tar.gz.

The android app now works as does the calendar sync \o/ The feeds will remain inside ~friendica ~friendica

I installed owncloud 4.5.7 on my shared host, and I thinking about upgrading to owncloud 5... is it easy to update from the tar.gz file? What should be backuped before? Or should the tar-gz-file just be decompressed into the old owncloud directory?

I think the config and data folders hold your stuff and everything else is oC stuff; but I may be wrong - never did a clean update with oC ;-)

Gepostet inCommunity, Allgemein Bookmark the permalink. Today we released ownCloud 5, a very important milestone for the ownCloud community and perhaps the most important release so far.

If you are updating from their git repository you need to clone some extra repositories. For example the 3rdparty libs are in their own repository, but not included as submodules, so you need to take care yourself. The same for the apps.
Otherwise the update worked without problems.

Anyone else having issues getting the latest version of Owncloud to install on a shared web hosting account? Most of the previous version would throw a php error after submitting the user and mysql database accounts details, but refreshing the page would always work, no more errors.

This time around it's different, I still get the php error after submitting user account and mysql database config info, but now I get an Internal server 500 error. >:(

I'd check the version of PHP. The requirement for OwnCloud went up on one of the recent releases - I got stung by this too on a hosted Virtual Server.

Facebook and Dropbox? There will be blood
So what a great announcement by Facebook and Dropbox (http://www.digitaltrends.com/social-media/facebook-adds-dropbox-to-groups/) this week – No privacy has met no security!!
In my mind this partnership tells me two very important things. First, file sync and share is incredibly desirable to very large portions of our society. The second is HOLY CRAP, is this the perfect storm where no privacy meets at the corner of no security??

Listen, I'm all for sharing of data, and ideas and even intellectual property – hell, I started ownCloud around file sync and share – but combining Dropbox and Facebook is, pardon me here – JUST STUPID.

Companies are already facing the dilemma of employees using unsecured BYODs to carry and share corporate data. Employees, who just want to get their work done however they can, do not always understand the risks involve using an app like Dropbox – or Facebook. Now, added to the anti-IT arsenal is the linkage of Dropbox AND Facebook. Mark my words folks, there will be tears.

Look, companies need to protect their data and privacy, but they need to also enable their workers. There ARE solutions out there (hint, hint) but Dropbox/Facebook AIN'T it.

Facebooks users will see it as a fantastic feature. And be honest, a shared folder in a social netwok group is a great thing.
The Problem is FB and Dropbox. Sometimes I think most of them (most of my friends) give a sh** on privacy and security.

I need some support with owncloud.
I just installed the ubuntu sync client (1.05) and tried to sync with an owncloud server (4.06). The client shows some attempt to sync, at least the changing symbol implies that. But it does only show this working-symbol for a few seconds and changes it to a red x-symbol. Afterwards I had no new files on my local harddrive and no new files in the web interface.
what is wrong?

Now use ownCloud on your iPad, iPhone or Android! | ownCloud
Now use ownCloud on your iPad, iPhone or Android!

That’s right, available today for the first time are ownCloud apps in the Apple AppStore and Google Play. So now your customers and employees can quickly, easily and inexpensively (they are only 99 cents) access ownCloud from the world’s most popular mobile devices.

Here is another tool in your arsenal to move your employees to a more secure, self-hosted software that seamlessly integrates into your existing infrastructure – from storage to security to reporting systems.

With these new apps, end users can securely log into an ownCloud instance, browse files and folders, and then download, open, update and upload files as needed. Photos and videos can also be set to be uploaded automatically from the Android app, and you can log into multiple ownCloud accounts. You can get more information here. Tell us what you think.

The new Android ownCloud client is now tablet aware. Looks nice and makes much better impression than the last release. It just crashes if it is running in background sometimes.

New version 1.1 is available in Source and .apk form.
If you did install version 1.0 you will need do delete or de-install the previous ownCloud App.

Upgrading
To upgrade your ownCloud instance, just replace the files with the new set from the download. Leave the config/ folder and data/ folder intact to preserve your data. The upgrade will happen automatically when you first login.

Correction of my statement above: Actually, not the complete contacts/calendar data is sent, but a list of links to all contacts/events with a modification each. The syncing device must now look at every entry and compare its modification time to the one it currently has (very expensive with many entries, of course) and then download the entries that have been changed.

With "real" CardDAV/CalDAV, the syncing device only has to send a "sync token", and the server will present a list of those entries that were changed.

@Tobias Sure, the rest is really just topping for now, but it would be good if it was able to be more than that, like the reason why someone installs owncloud in the first place.

I don't have much need for online files, though sometimes I do, and then it's great to have my owncloud from now on.

Has anyone gotten their Android contacts and calendar to sync with their Owncloud instance yet?

I'm looking at Owncloud as a replacement for my current #Funambol sync + #Onemediahub setup.  This setup works pretty damn well to be honest, however I'm still storing my data with a 3rd party (boooo...) and setting up my own Funambol server seems rather onerous compared to an Owncloud setup

4.0 is working smoothly now since upgrading to the latest release. I was able to get both CardDAV and CalDAV working and syncing my contacts and calendar betwixt phone and owncloud.

Overall, the Funambol/OneMediaHub setup seems a bit more polished and comprehensive. I have not bothered to setup my own Funambol server, Owncloud is much easier to get going therefore it will remain my personal cloud backend for the time being.

looks great, thanks.

here's an fyi that mght be helpful to someone installing owncloud.

*if you happen to build modern php using 'old' configuration options 

--with-sqlite=shared --with-pdo-sqlite=shared

php will build fine without complaint. but owncloud can't load the PDO driver for sqlite...

When creating the first user in ownCloud, I received the error 'cannot load driver' - regarding sqlite.

I checked my config and these two configuration switches no longer exist (or at least they do not appear in config help). Building php *without* these two switches seems to solve the problem. (sqlite3 PDO installs by default). The php documentation for sqlite does not seem clear.

other than that the install went smooth, and it appears to function.

Do you have the latest version of ownCloud running on the server? Which version of Android do you have? I have ICS and it was working directly when I used the full url including /files/webdav.php
Have you tried to use WLAN? Unfortunately I also don't know much more.
