Server: Quota: 0/0MB invalid NC12

[jasonbayton]

For quite some time it's been possible to set a user quota to 0 in order to prevent uploads, as of 12 this is no longer possible.

I understand there were issues around the ability to still _do stuff_ (https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/4577), however having an account essentially r/o or only able to upload to shared directories was quite useful.

If this was planned with solutions to both of the above use-cases, feel free to point me to the solutions 👍

Cheers!

We don't have a fix for this yet. It is planned to be fixed there, but I can't give promises.

@MorrisJobke Is it a big change? Maybe I can help if you point me in the right direction?

We have the same problem, as r/o users (referring to personal files) cannot be created any more. This feature is important for us, too. I hope it can be easily fixed without a major code edit.
And thank you again for the milestone!

Same here. We are also in the need of read-only users. This also implies preventing a user to create folders as described in #4577.

I tested this on 12.0.4 and the upcoming 13.0.0 and it works there. Let's close it here and check if it happens again.
