This belongs under the notifications app.

rev138 on 23 Dec 2018

@rev138 not so sure this is a notifications app error. Wasn't the notification related to a share you received? Can you actually see the received share?

r3pek on 27 Dec 2018

@rev138 In my case, yes same issue... but only with sharing folder or files via federation.

victordariovera on 28 Dec 2018

I'm not convinced this is a notifications app issue, it could be either at this point.
The notifications app issue is at https://github.com/nextcloud/notifications/issues/232

Notifications not related to shares work just fine for me, like notification:generate ones.

On IRC @r3pek said the federated shares are also inaccessible without the notification even though they are shown in the Activity app as created and removed. Is this also the case for you @victordariovera and the shares are not shown?

I have to admit to not having used federation myself but it sounds like they shouldn't be tied to a single notification to be accessible since it can as shown here break. (Also notifications can be dismissed?)

Lartza on 28 Dec 2018

Agreed with @Lartza above. I could not find any mention of shares or alternatives to accepting or rejecting them other than through a notification. This means that if the notification is somehow dismissed without action, the share request might get stuck in limbo.

The notifications work fine in both the desktop client and the Android app, meaning the bug is only present in the web interface itself. I do not know enough about the inner workings of the notifications app to know if the fault lies within it.

My browser output is the same as https://github.com/nextcloud/notifications/issues/232. There is no server-side error whatsoever.

@Lartza yes! exactly. I can't access federated resources at all (I'm using a fresh NC v.15 installation). I try to share from another NC installation, receive the notification (I only see them via web browser native notification) but when I click over the notification bell on NC Web there's not notification at all. Well, the bell shows a tiny red circle (like it showing pendent notifications).

victordariovera on 29 Dec 2018

I try to accept the federated item in NC App (iOS) but notification does not appear. In activity there is a register for that sharing, but I cant accept it!

victordariovera on 29 Dec 2018

As a workaround: Use the android app to see the notification an to accept or refuse the shared federated resource.

brknkfr on 1 Jan 2019

Hi @brknkfr! I tried to accept federated resource from android..but I can't access it. Notifications appears in Android, and I can accept it, but the resource doesn't appear.

The "sender" instance is running in a home server on port 8088 (https). This is because my ISP blocks port 80. The "receiving instance" is running in AWS at port 443 (https). It can be a problem?

By other hand, I can't configure same NC instance (sender) as an external storage (nextcloud type). It seems that NC search the connection in port 80/443 and I don't have any option to configure a non standard port (8088 in this case).

victordariovera on 2 Jan 2019

Same problem here.

benhartwich on 3 Jan 2019

just stumbled upon the same... to summarize and conclude what I can reproduce myself:

receive a federated share notification (see the notification pop up (if browser notifications are allowed) with the text)
switch to your nextcloud browser tab and click on the notification icon with the red dot indicating there is something new
see an empty popover (if there were no other notifications)(but no "no notification text")(if there are other notifications, they are shown, but not the federated share request)

<div class="notification-wrapper"><!----> <!----></div>

The notification is shown in nc-android and from there I can accept the share successfully.

the console shows this.userRemoteTemplate is not a function:

I guess that's a javascript problem?
If this problem is only in the notification part and not in the server we can switch to nextcloud/notifications#232.
