nextcloud-client asks to connect accounts after each reboot #60012

caugner · 2019-04-22T09:02:58Z

Issue description

Since the upgrade to NixOS 19.03 (and nextcloud-client 2.5.0), the nextcloud-client tells me You have been logged out of ***@*** as user ***. Please login again and asks me to Connect to your account after each reboot, even if I entered the login data during the last session.

Steps to reproduce

Install nextcloud-client (in my case, globally).
Add one or more accounts (in my case, 4 accounts on 3 servers).
Reboot

Technical details

Please run nix-shell -p nix-info --run "nix-info -m" and paste the
results.

@caugner this might be due to how nextcloud-client gets its keyring.

Anything interesting shown on the console on nextcloud-client startup?

I'm probably missing something, but which keyring (i.e. Kwallet, gnome keyring or none) is used to remember the credentials?

teto · 2019-04-23T03:03:05Z

on login, I have a keyring unblock prompt triggered by nextcloud client (installed via home-manager)/Kwallet.

Thanks a lot for this! Unless @flokli is faster I'll try to reproduce the issue in a VM tonight :)

Ma27 · 2019-04-25T07:59:24Z

So, I managed to reproduce the problem in a VM, but I'm not entirely sure if I didn't screw up the keyrig somehow as I'm not a GNOME user.

IIRC we had similar issues in the past, so it would be awesome if @jtojnar could have a look at this :)

jtojnar · 2019-04-26T11:33:37Z

Do you have a VM config?

Ma27 · 2019-04-26T20:09:36Z

I checked this with the following VM:

{
  gnome3vm = { pkgs, ... }: {
    virtualisation.memorySize = 8192;
    users.extraUsers.vm = {
      password = "vm";
      isNormalUser = true;
    };
    environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
      gnome3.gnome_keyring
      gnome3.gnome-packagekit
      gnome3.gnome_session
      gnome3.gnome-disk-utility
      gnome3.gnome-tweak-tool
      gnome3.mutter
      libgnome_keyring
      nextcloud-client
    ];
    services.gnome3 = {
      gnome-keyring.enable = true;
      tracker.enable = false;
      tracker-miners.enable = false;
    };
    services.xserver = {
      enable = true;
      desktopManager.gnome3 = {
        enable = true;
        extraGSettingsOverrides = ''
          [org.gnome.desktop.background]
          show-desktop-icons=true
          [org.gnome.desktop.calendar]
          show-weekdate=true
          [org.gnome.desktop.interface]
          clock-show-date=true
          clock-show-seconds=true
          show-battery-percentage=true
          [org.gnome.desktop.privacy]
          hide-identity=true
          report-technical-problems=true
          [org.gnome.desktop.sound]
          event-sounds=false
          [org.gnome.mutter]
          experimental-features=['scale-monitor-framebuffer']
          [org.gnome.nautilus.icon-view]
          defualt-zoom-level=small
          [org.gnome.nautilus.list-view]
          use-tree-view=true
          [org.gnome.nautilus.preferences]
          always-use-location-entry=true
          automatic-decompressoin=false
          default-folder-viewer='list-view'
          executable-text-activation='ask'
          show-hidden-files=true
        '';
      };

      displayManager.gdm = {
        enable = true;
      };
    };
  };
}

It's based on the GNOME3 config from @caugner and can be built by running NIX_PATH=nixpkgs/path/to/nixpkgs nixos-build-vms vmtest.nix.

jtojnar · 2019-04-27T14:26:29Z

I had to add

  services.nextcloud = {
    enable = true;
    nginx.enable = true;
    hostName = "nextcloud";
    config = {
      adminuser = "admin";
      adminpass = "password";
    };
  };

I run strace on nextcloud and can confirm that it does not try to load libsecret.so, only libgnome-keyring.so. Which is weird, as we seem to compile qtkeychain with libsecret support.

I am not very familiar with Qt ecosystem but at a glance, nothing looks like it is choosing which backends to use in:

https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/blob/68983c54bbdb522df5c12dea321e57508d1b49ab/src/libsync/creds/httpcredentials.cpp

jtojnar · 2019-04-27T14:36:31Z

Hmm, apparently qtkeychain builds libsecret.cpp.o even when libsecret is not supported:

https://github.com/frankosterfeld/qtkeychain/blob/e7118623a44485c173cc43e7386725c8cfec0842/CMakeLists.txt#L150-L166

Will open a PR soon.

flokli · 2019-04-27T15:44:26Z

I was a bit busy recently, thanks a lot @jtojnar for tracing this down!

jtojnar · 2019-04-29T06:58:29Z

Fixed in #60327.

caugner · 2019-04-29T17:04:43Z
