While updating to 23.0.9/24.0.5[1], it was discovered that Nextcloud silently changes db passwords in some cases (in case of MySQL in **all** now). This is inherently incompatible with our module. Further context is provided in the patch file attached to this commit. [1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/190646, see comments below

Subject: [PATCH] Setup: remove custom dbuser creation behavior
|
|
|
|
Both PostgreSQL and MySQL can be authenticated against from Nextcloud by
|
|
supplying a database password. Now, during setup the following things
|
|
happen:
|
|
|
|
* When using postgres and the db user has elevated permissions, a new
|
|
unprivileged db user is created and the settings `dbuser`/`dbpass` are
|
|
altered in `config.php`.
|
|
|
|
* When using MySQL, the password is **always** regenerated since
|
|
24.0.5/23.0.9[1].
|
|
|
|
I consider both cases problematic: the reason why people do configuration
|
|
management is to have it as single source of truth! So, IMHO any
|
|
application that silently alters config and thus causes deployed
|
|
nodes to diverge from the configuration is harmful for that.
|
|
|
|
I guess it was sheer luck that it worked for so long in NixOS because
|
|
nobody has apparently used password authentication with a privileged
|
|
user to operate Nextcloud (which is a good thing in fact).
