Owncloud infinite scale not working with onlyoffice

Infinite Scale

Ui not showing only office options

I’ve been trying to setup owncloud infinite scale on my homelab, the server works just fine but I can’t seem to get collaboration server working correctly.

I’ve noticed that the wopi server doesn’t register any mimetypes. At least thats what the logs suggest.

But my app-registry.yaml file

No other relevant logs at this point. Server loads, I can upload files and when I click on docx files, it just downloads them.

https://onlyoffice, https://owncloud and https://wopi are proxied via nginx.

What am I missing here?

Check the response of the https://onlyoffice/hosting/discovery . The missing mimetype information comes from there. It’s possible that nginx is redirecting to a unknown place, and it’s messing with the parsing of the expected information.

The content of the page should be an xml document, starting with <wopi-discovery>

3

the contents do include a 200 response; with wopi-discovery.

It’s pretty clear that there are problems for the collaboration service to get the info from OnlyOffice, but I’m not sure why.

I don’t think it’s relevant, but I have the `USE_UNAUTHORIZED_STORAGE` set to “true” in the environment variables of OnlyOffice.

Another thing you could try is to set every container in the same network, not using 2 different networks.

Hello,
Getting OCIS and OnlyOffice to work together is kind of the reason why I found this forum. But before detailing my own issue, let’s try to figure out yours. It does seem like I am a few steps further than you are :wink:

From the app-registry.yaml file you provided, it seems like the mime_type opendocument.text, opendocument.spreadsheet and opendocument.presentation have Collabora assigned as default_app. Check if correcting that setting to OnlyOffice, makes things better.

Also, check your browser console to see if any errors are returned there. To get it (almost) working, I had add the URL of my WOPI server to the CSP settings.
