Did Nextcloud update (20.0.5) break Carnet?

[jcm4atx]

Describe the bug Only able to install Carnet from source and then I just see a blank screen, not Carnet.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Unable to install Carnet from the web-based App Store. Get "Could not extract app carnet".
2. Unable to install at command line with sudo -u www-data php ./occ app:install carnet. Get "Could not extract app carnet".
3. Was able to install by downloading and installing the source:

   cd /tmp
   wget https://github.com/CarnetApp/CarnetNextcloud/archive/master.zip
   unzip master.zip
   mv CarnetNextcloud-master/ carnet
   sudo chown -R www-data: carnet/
   sudo mv carnet/ /var/www/html/apps/
   cd /var/www/html
   sudo -u www-data php ./occ app:enable carnet

   but only get a blank screen. I did restart Apache for good measure.

Expected behavior I expect the main screen with the fake notes.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: WIndows 10
• Browser Chrome
• Version 87.0.4280.141

I see the same behaviour. "Could not extract app carnet" both from browser and occ. I'm on a fresh install of NC20.0.6 with Apache in Docker with a reverse proxy in front of it. When I manually install from zip I get a blank page and an exception in log about CarnetElectron.

Does anybody know more?

EDIT: I do! To install Carnet from git you also have to resolve the CarnetElectron dependency. One way to do it would be to clone the repo recursively (git clone https://github.com/CarnetApp/CarnetNextcloud.git --recursive) or - as I did just now - to unzip Carnet and unzip CarnetElectron (https://github.com/PhieF/CarnetElectron.git) into carnet/templates/CarnetElectron. After that it works for me.

It would be cool to be able to install install through the app store. Could the submodule be the culprit here?

Same for me. I see the following stacktrace in the logs:

Carnet failed to install on NextCloud 20 via the App Store.

I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 on a Digital Ocean droplet. I did "snap install nextcloud". When I logged into the NextCloud as administrator, go to app store, select Carnet, got "Could not extract app carnet".

I did a new install of Ubuntu 20.04 did a "snap install nextcloud --channel=19/stable". logged in as admin, went to app store, select Carnet. Installed perfectly.

If you have an existing NC19 install, and do a snap upgrade to upgrade to NC20, and Carnet will still work. I did this on another machine.

It would appear the problem is not with running the code on NC20, but installing on NC20.

Good finding. +1 @fuzz500

It should install properly with latest carnet version ! :) if somebody wants to confirm

thanks for your reports and investigations !

[callahan22]

It's alive!

All good. Thanks for resolving :-)

[PhieF]

Haha sorry I didn't have time to work a lot on this

I'm closing this issue
