error backing up personal files to owncloud

[Norbert Preining]

Hi Martin,

I have set up aedict to backup user data to my own/nextcloud instance:

Backup storage: owncloud
Owncloud setting
https://...
username/password (application password) entered

I see the folder
Apps / Aedict / backups / UserData
in my cloud, but the actual backup gives the following error:
Failed to create automatic backup: list /Apps/Aedict/backups/Userdata failed: -1 HOST_NOT_AVAILABLE

Going into setting -> User data -> Backup/Restore I see
Failure: list /Apps/Aedict/backups/Userdata failed: -1 HOST_NOT_AVAILABLE

All the best

Norbert

Well, OwnCloud Java client is really horrible and it's hard to learn
from those messages what they actually mean. My guess would be that your
phone can't see your server for some reason. Can other apps ping your
server, or connect to your server?

Yes, the nextcloud app can easily connect without any problems.

Thanks! I'll try to investigate the client and improve error reporting
at least in this case. So that we have something solid as an error message.

But first, please open a bug at github aedict bug tracker and please
attach the exception which should be logged in your phone log. Thanks!
