Missing "Group" list items in the "Add Shares" chooser

[WNYmathGuy]

What is going wrong? What did you observe?

In a recently build NC 22 instance, I have a plethora of User Groups and some similarly named Contact Groups. I can't confirm it at this moment, but I'm confident that the string differs slightly. e.g. the User Group is Board_Member and the Contact Group is Board Member.

A clear and concise description of what is wrong.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Create a new or select any existing Poll, then open the section for Shares
2. Click on the field for + Add Shares and begin to type the letters of one of the user groups.
3. Observe that a User Group is not selectable, but a Contact Group similarly named is selectable.
4. Keep typing letters till it's a unique User Group designation and only the Everyone User Group will show.

How should it work?

The interactive filter/group chooser share field needs to be able to display general user groups that administrators created in a NC instance.

I cannot reproduce this, I get the user group and the contact group as well. Please check your sharing settings settings/admin/sharing If this is checked, you have to be member of the group, you search for.

If this is checked, you have to be member of the group, you search for.

That's not checked on either of my NC instances.

I did more experimentation when I got home yesterday. My older but fully upgraded NC instance has trouble with the same thing as the new NC instance. What I'm finding out right now, is it might be a couple of factors based on experimentation.

1. Users, contact lists, and contacts are discovered with case insensitive searches, user groups are requiring case sensitive strings
2. User groups that are all lower-case one-word alpha strings come up in a partial search.
3. User groups that contain non-alphabet characters or mixed case strings need an exact match and the full string to be listed.

Even this is not reproducible for me:

[WNYmathGuy]

Well, hell. Would the version of MariaDB or MySQL make a difference? I don't use the lower number ones from APT for Ubuntu, I have the better ones direct from the maker's sites.

I guess you could make it a low priority thing though since I found that typing out the full same case string allows me to get the intended results.

Can you show me the SQL statements you use to populate that filtration of entities?

[dartcafe]

Group searching is done here, using the core GroupManager: https://github.com/nextcloud/polls/blob/ca43714937e58e357c96b7685b98e95b321b8599/lib/Model/UserGroup/Group.php#L63-L77

The app forms no SQL statements. And I don't think that the version makes any difference.

Is there any difference between adding a share in the polls app to adding it in the files app?
