[croessner]

Steps to reproduce

1. Login as admin
2. Go to settings themeing
3. click on the symbol for chosing a logo
4. select a PNG 36kb image

Expected behaviour

Logo should be changed

Actual behaviour

The info says that the logo was saved and it stays endless at "Loading preview...". The background image below logo also shows a broken image link.

Web server error log

2017/08/26 10:18:49 [info] 3421#3421: *3 client canceled stream 483 while sending request to upstream, client: 193.239.106.201, server: roessner-net.de, request: "GET /nextcloud/apps/theming/styles?reload=1503735523907 HTTP/2.0", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php5-fpm-system.sock:", host: "roessner-net.de"

Nextcloud log (data/nextcloud.log)

For reasons I do not understand, there does not exist such log file. I only have php error logs for the user stored in another path /var/log/fpm-php/system/php_errors.log, which only shows errors, if the database server is rebooted. No other messages.

Browser log

See in the screenshot attached

Nginx config

It is mostly identical to the example on the nextcloud webside (I think ;-) )

Steps to reproduce in pictures

[danxuliu]

Thanks for the detailed report!

The bug is already fixed in the stable12 branch (see #6067), so it will be fixed in the next Nextcloud 12 maintenance release :-)

[croessner]

Thank you very much :-) I am happily looking forward to the next release.

[croessner]

Just tested theming in NC-12.0.3RC2 and it still does not work :-(

I can chose a logo and it tells that it got saved, but it is not used by NC. If logging out and back in, it still shows the default NC logo and background. So the issue is still open

Also the preview shows a broken image link in the thumbnail.

[croessner]

@danxuliu can you please re-open this issue?

[croessner]

I think this really should be fixed before releasing 12.0.3, as it exists since 11 release now.

I can't test 12.0.4 here but in 13beta at least it works flawlessly.

(background pic is Banana Bungalow in San Diego - location where in Jan 2010 oC was announced by Frank - 🎂 now 8 years ago)

Are you sure nothing is broken on your server? Our company server is also already upgraded to 13Beta otherwise I could simply show you there that it works, there, too...

I did test it on demo.nextcloud.com and it works without issues there so it must be a config on your side...

[tobia]

I just installed the latest stable release (12.0.4snap1 4371) and it's broken.

The small logo in the upper left corner (when you are logged in) is updated correctly, but the big logo in the login page and the background image remain the default ones. Also the preview is never shown and the status remains at "Loading preview…" forever. No error is logged in the console nor in the system logs.

Edit: is this an issue with the snap package not being able to write the files into the webroot?

[jospoortvliet]

Ah, you use the Snap? @croessner you too? If so, then it should be filed as an issue there...

[tobia]

@jospoortvliet well I suppose most people coming here with user-level feedback are using the snap, since it's the recommended way to install Nextcloud, according to the documentation.

Here's the snap issue

[sempervictus]

If the snap is the default install method, why is it a second class citizen for release testing? Next cloud version bumps should probably depend on issues being cleared up there as well since it seems pathologically behind and broken compared to docker or manual methods.

[jospoortvliet]

I don't believe we say Snap is the recommended way, the docs just say that if there are no packages and you don't want to use the tarball, you can use snaps... But yeah, we could put more effort in making the Snap work well, that's true. At the moment our primary 'product' is still the zip/tar file.

[mzeyrek]

After upgrading 13.0.0.1 having exact same issue. i can see uploaded logo in small window but no change, even can't see background at all. I did fresh install and straight to theming. The only change i made prior to my previous installation is i've upgraded my php version from 7.0 to 7.2 don't know whether related with php version or new release. Would be great if someone can confirm this is working stable in 13.0.0.1 ?

[eldelacajita]

Same here with a fresh install of 13.0.1.

• Name, web address and slogan are changed instantly. No problem.
• The newly uploaded .svg logo shows up on the small preview, but not on the actual interface or login page.
• Changing the color doesn't even change the preview.

I'm using the official VM.

[ErrorInPersona]

Fresh install of 13.0.1 and same problem. I can see the correct logo when hovering in the console, still not beeing displayed. Console gives SourceMap Error.
As well the errorlog is flodded with:

Error | no app in context | issuetemplate
-- | -- | --

EDIT: Everything shows up fine in the app!

[penzoiders]

Fresh install from Nextcloud VM scripts, 13.0.1, no way to display custom color logo or background on web GUI.
Title and url ok.
background and color in app ok.
web app is the affected part.

[mpscy]

Same here! 13.01. just previews the color and login-image under Settings-Theming, but does not actually use it then....

[lexkanev]

Maybe I have solution.
I did fresh install of 13.0.1, tried to change logo and background, but nothing happend. After that I have instaled Unsplash app, turn it ON and logouted. And so I have changes on the first page! After that I turned it OFF and got changes of logo and background.
Try this solution please.

[jospoortvliet]

That's totally weird... It is working just fine here, I can't reproduce the issue with a normal install, but perhaps it is something in the VM; if that is the case @enoch85 should know/test this! :rocket:

[ErrorInPersona]

I can confirm that the installation of any app does solve the problem.
@jospoortvliet yes, i´ve been installing via the vm on a fresh ubuntu 16.04. Thanks! 👍

[ace0024]

Same here!

I did fresh a install of 13.0.1, tried to change logo and background, but nothing happend. (vm)

The workaround with the Unsplash app is only working for the Logo. Background isn´t working...

[phlegx]

The _Theming App_ works fine! The problem is the image cache. The trick, changing the logo and background image in the _Theming App_ and then enabling and disabling the _Unsplash App_, seams to update the image cache.

As described in the theming doc it may be necessary to update the image cache. This is done by executing:

sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:theme:update

[bleed2002]

had the same issue, latest NC 13.0.1, using wonderfall/nextcloud docker image.
enabling and disabling Unsplash app did the trick for me (for logo AND background image), command maintenance:theme:update did not work for me, so unsplash app seems to do a bit more..

[heyitsmikeyv]

Noticed this exact issue today. You can force your theme changes to update by removing or renaming the data/appdata_(instanceid) and data/updater-(instanceid) directories and then resetting whichever application cache you're using, usually by restarting your web service.

It's pretty annoying to have to do this, and I hope it gets fixed, but hopefully this helps some people. Plus, it's a little more sustainable than the "install a new app to force the update" workaround since it only seems to work the first time you install a given app.

[pherman]

I'm using NextCloud 13.0.2 on Debian Stretch and neither installing and enabling then disabling Unsplash worked nor removing the data/appdata_(instanceid) directory. Changing the name, slogan, URL, or logo in the Theming app has no effect. php occ config:list shows the changes but the interface itself does not change.

[sempervictus]

Snaps are probably not going anywhere even faster now that the
closed-control market has also been compromised by malware. This thread
also indicates that the problem we are experiencing is inherent to how
snaps organize data and what remains writeable relative to how the actual
application does it. If you want customization, a read-only container
depending on a closed-source distribution mechanism may not be the best way
to go. The same can be accomplished with docker images in a compose file
without loss of functionality (but an increase in administrative overhead).
Maybe we should just be glad that grandma can run her own with snapd and
not expect plugins to work? That makes the other 98% of plugins which do
work a pleasant surprise instead of this functionality being a thorn in
one's side. :)

Just FYI, I'm not using Docker.

[GammaPi]

Same problem on 13.0.5
Installed via official docker image!
And my problem is exactly the same as described by @pherman .
Also, app unsplash can change background normally. But nither the slogan nor the logo changed with the setting of the theming app. The only thing happens when enabling the theming app is that the background image (the one with blue dots) disappeared.
And I cannot find any related error logs.
@jospoortvliet

[juresaht2]

This is not a caching problem, since running occ maintenance:repair is made to clear all caches yet does not resolve this issue.

I am experiencing the issue on the latest version, when modifying theme using occ. Doing it in the GUI works.
