OK, I keep you posted. Thank you

22

Clean install, restore config, and still no users and no software reinstalled :cry:
Shall I restore data to get something?

23

I could get back my users and groups thanks to:

24

But no application reinstalled

25

Is the NethServer able to reach the update servers?

On config restore screen, did you enable “Reinstall packages”?

Yes, of course

27

After install… did you run an software update before restoring configuration?

28

Yes, as advised. And I rebooted

29

Well… strange for the “software”. Configuration could not hold user data.
Time to restore the data, IMVHO. You should find the backup procedure working AND the restore point available.

30

Data restore ongoing

31

I ran out of tea for sipping time…

32

After data restore, still no application. I reinstalled them, some work, some not. Sogo is fine, Nextcloud gives the following error:
“Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator if this error reappears multiple times, please include the technical details below in your report.
More details can be found in the server log.”
But the main problem i that I cannot connect to Cockpit anymore:
“Internal error in login process”
I try to check the logs, but I would need help for being efficient…

33

Does your setup have an NSDC container? If the answer is yes, look for this command from shell/ssh systemctl status nsdc -l
you can start NSDC container with systemctl start nsdc.

34

No, I don’t think so. Where would that come from?

35

NSDC is the “component” that allow NethServer to “act” as AD domain controller.

36

No, I don’t have an AD, just local LDAP

37

It refers to an older version, but might help you to understand if LDAP server is running or not.

Also, please, post the output of yum update

38

yum update gives nothing to update
I can log in Sogo, so LDAP should be running

39

Is that an good idea to re-restore data after the application reinstall?
However, I first need to log in Cockpit

40

I have Cron message such as:
“PDOException: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table ‘nextcloud.oc_appconfig’ doesn’t exist in /usr/share/nextcloud/3rdparty/doctrine/dbal/src/Driver/PDO/Connection.php:82”
