Server: "Preview generation has failed" on Nextcloud 14.0.3

[rcdailey]

Using the nextcloud:apache Docker image at version 14.0.3, I get the following error in logs during preview generation in the "Images" tab of Nextcloud:

Error | gallery | Exception: Preview generation has failed | a few seconds ago

I get a lot of the "Max preview size 0" errors. I'm not sure why.

My docker compose is as follows:

version: '3.7'

services:
  db:
    image: mysql:8
    command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --binlog-format=ROW

[LifeBasher]

have you tried to use the preview generator app in nextcloud? and what os are u using for your server?

[rcdailey]

I have not, I expect the stock functionality to work. And the host OS is Ubuntu 18, but remember I said I'm using the docker image.

[LifeBasher]

Im not working with them so i cant say why the normal functionnality doesnt work but well you should try the command line :P

[kesselb]

Still happening? You usually see the above error if the calculation for the width or height of the image fails. Probably a image with broken meta information.
