Steps to reproduce
- Use docker-compose to start a new 10.11 instance
- Change the version in the docker-compose.yml file to 10.15
- Run
docker-compose up -d
to start the containers with the updated ownCloud instance
- Downgrade back to 10.11 (I did this because 10.15 wasn’t working and I wasn’t interested in troubleshooting)
- Run
docker-compose up -d
again to start the containers with the downgraded ownCloud instance
- Attempt to log in
Expected behaviour
Login with 10.11 proceeds normally.
Actual behaviour
I get a 500 error and cannot log in.
Notes:
I experienced this issue and SOLVED it. I saw that someone else also experienced the problem and was not helped. I will put my solution in this thread.
The solution I found:
I managed to find the server logs that described the login error, and I found BadFunctionCallException: creationTime is not a valid attribute
The only thing I had changed was my ownCloud server container, and NOT my Redis or MariaDB containers. So, after removing and recreating the ownCloud container, when I was still having problems, I concluded that the upgrade had migrated something in one of these containers, probably MariaDB.
I entered the MariaDB container, logged into the database, and selected the ownCloud database. Using SELECT * FROM oc_accounts LIMIT 1;
, I could see a column called creation_time
. I took a guess that creation_time
was new, added during the upgrade. So I deleted the column with: alter table oc_accounts drop column creation_time;
After that, I was able to log in successfully.
