System information

Here's the output of ncp-report, although it's probably not useful anymore at this point since it didn't reinstall nextcloud:

No response to this? What was your resolution? This is exactly why I don't ever want to upgrade my server. I did it once and the user data on my external drive ended up trashed as a result of upgrade problems (I don't remember the specific details).

Since I'm still on 26 I thought I'd see if upgrades are any more bulletproof than last time, hoping that if nothing else, waiting until newer versions have been patched for critical fixes would give me confidence I wouldn't be forced to start over from scratch yet again.

This report leads me to believe it's still far from bulletproof, and I guess I'll forever be stuck on 26 unless and until I'm ever ready to just install a clean server. :(

I had the same problem as @joneuhauser, but when upgrading from 27.0.1.2 to 27.1.3 (NextcloudPi v1.53.0). I finally got around to restoring the instance today. It was actually very easy: I was able to successfully restore the backup that was automatically created during the upgrade process (in /var/www) using nc-restore. I was then able to update NextcloudPi (using nc-update) and then Nextcloud (using nc-update-nextcloud) to the latest versions without any errors.

I do not know the exact cause of the problem. However, in an immediately preceding call of nc-update, the following lines were returned (within the expected output):

/usr/local/etc/library.sh: line 494: [: 0sh: integer expression expected
/usr/local/etc/library.sh: line 494: [: 0sh: integer expression expected
/usr/local/etc/library.sh: line 494: [: 0sh: integer expression expected

This is apparently a problem that was fixed in v1.53.1, see #1670 (comment). I suspect a connection with the Nextcloud upgrade problem, but according to the logs @joneuhauser seems to have already used v1.53.1.
