I added a log output in
nextcloud/lib/private/Files/Node/Folder.php:173:
throw new NotPermittedException('Could not create folder, fullPath: '.$fullPath.', path: '.$path);

After i checked and the folder did exist for me. So to fix this i added a check on the creation if the folder already exists to fix this and changed it to:
if (!$this->get($path) || !$this->view->mkdir($fullPath)) { throw new NotPermittedException('Could not create folder, fullPath: '.$fullPath.', path: '.$path); }

The idea of letting the process run to end, and logging the errors is nice...

st3iny · 2022-04-13T16:39:26Z

@f4t-t0ny @stratege1401 I think I found the problem and developed a patch. The problem is, that I'm not able to reproduce the issue locally. Could you test it for me?

Patch: preview-duplicate-folder-creation.patch.txt

@f4t-t0ny @stratege1401我想我发现了问题并开发了一个补丁。问题是，我无法在本地重现该问题。你能帮我测试一下吗？

补丁：preview-duplicate-folder-creation.patch.txt

I tried this patch, it works ok now. I am running Nextcloud23.0 with preview plugin 4.0 on CentOS7,php8.

Can confirm, this patch fixed this issue for me.

st3iny · 2022-05-09T13:40:47Z

Thanks a lot for testing the patch. I'll submit it upstream.

Blisk · 2022-05-27T16:30:39Z

I have the same problem, don't know what this patch is and how it is used?

st3iny · 2022-05-27T18:06:37Z

It is already merged and released. The problem will be fixed if you are using Nextcloud >= 22 and installed the latest update.

Kh3nsu · 2022-06-12T19:30:06Z

Hello I'm currently running Nextcloud 24.0.1.
I got the same error and have installed PreviewGenerator 5.0.0.
I applied the patch but still get this error:

I am using Nextcloud 24.0.6 and 5.0.1 of this app and also get this error when trying to run php occ preview:generate-all. Let me know what logs I could provide to help with this.

Chuckame · 2023-02-04T23:46:23Z

Same for me, nextcloud 25.0.3 (plugin 5.1.1) and 24.0.5 (forgot to take the version) in docker environment

Chuckame · 2023-02-13T18:05:10Z

After a full reinstall, i don't have this error anymore

zvarnes · 2023-03-27T01:29:32Z

I'm running the most recent version of this app, and Nextcloud and still getting this issue...

@st3iny No I did not.

Same issue:
NextCloud: 26.0.1 (Docker)
PreviewGenerator: 5.2.4

CorneliousJD · 2023-04-25T15:33:52Z

I eventually kept running it over and over and it finished successfully.

arcoast · 2023-05-01T17:24:50Z

I'm also seeing this on v5.2.4 on Nextcloud v26.0.0

Just to update, I ran the scan for each user separately and it seems to have done the trick and I can't reproduce the above any longer.

zvarnes · 2023-05-04T01:56:10Z

Still getting this error on version 26.0.1

SchoolGuy · 2023-06-27T17:02:00Z

I was able to trigger this bug with executing two preview:generate-all in parallel on accident.

NC 26.0.2 and Preview Generator 5.3.0

zvarnes · 2023-08-16T21:13:50Z

~~Still getting this error on 27.0.1. Where can I confirm your patch backport was successful? @st3iny~~

~~Well apparently it's fixed in 27.0.2 😐~~

I've done more testing, and I think just rescanning the files would help get ride of the error that was showing up. I ran this on a loop until the error went away. while true; do sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ files:scan-app-data && sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ preview:generate-all; done

maxkratz · 2023-10-15T13:39:14Z

This issue also occurs on my Nextcloud instance (v25.0.12). Is there any ETA for a fix?

JOHLC · 2023-11-22T03:18:46Z

I am also seeing this.
Installation: Nextcloud VM
Nextcloud version: 27.1.3
Preview generator version: 5.3.0

It seems to get through 974 files/folders or more before erroring out, and seems to always be on the same folder.
A reinstall of the app didn't resolve it.

sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ preview:generate-all

Installation: Nextcloud AIO via docker*
Version: Nextcloud Hub 6 (27.1.4)
*all commands below have been prepended with docker exec -u 33 -it nextcloud-aio-nextcloud, but I left that out for simplicity

I am seeing the same thing:

In Folder.php line 162:
...
Could not create folder "/appdata_ocmqi08lafyh/preview/6/6/3/f/a/6/5/84785"

My best guess is that this happens when it gets to photos that have already generated previews for (as my process ran for about 120GiB worth of photos without errors, but then when it got to ones that I have accessed before in browser and on my phone, it spit the error).

Steps Attempted:

Scan Files (returns same error in same location)

php occ files:scan --all
php occ preview:generate-all

Scan App Data (same error but later on, so more previews were successfully generated)

php occ files:scan-app-data
php occ preview:generate-all

Mat-DB · 2024-01-19T20:00:38Z

I have the same error on NC28.0.1 and the preview generator app just installed and run number 3 I think.

What is the difference between the following?

php occ preview:generate-all
php occ preview:generate --all

njchristoffersen · 2024-01-20T21:01:27Z

The first is a correct command, the second is a typo that I made. Thank you for catching that and I've edited my previous comment accordingly.

joshtrichards · 2024-04-01T15:29:29Z

I think this may be nextcloud/server#36463 which was just fixed in nextcloud/server#41067 (Server v27.1.7 and v28.0.3 have the fix).

chrisborell · 2024-06-20T00:10:47Z
