I have a Rpi 3b+ on raspbian setup on sqlite and nextcloud.

I run the below command:

sudo -u www-data php /var/www/html/nextcloud/occ files:scan --all

get the below output:

Starting scan for user 1 out of 1 (pi)
Exception during scan: "files/188f1ba3ad89878fcf6e89bb6dfa8f6e" is locked

I tried to do the below link:

https://help.nextcloud.com/t/file-is-locked-how-to-unlock/1883

wasn't really of much help since I'm on sqlite. can somebody please help me & guide me here as to what's happening?

yes it started since an unexpected "freeze" of my pi and I had to pull the plug.

TIA

Additional Info:

  • The pi has Transmission running on background downloading "files" :P
  • three jobs run upon startup - one to startup ngrok
  • one loop with the below command running every 5 mins:
    sudo chmod 777 /location/to/data/data -R
  • one loop with the below command running every 5 mins:
    sudo -u www-data php /var/www/html/nextcloud/occ files:scan --all -v

the reason? I need to be able to "see" & "action" the files in nextcloud web interface that I paste from the server and not using the web interface. because the files will be download by torrent to be made available in the nextcloud web interface.

Torrent Client : Transmission

all users are added to all groups (if you think I missed something here, pls let me know)

the permissions are set so because I have OSMC also as an optional OS that I use to watch movies and all.

  • Ok, I think I fixed it somehow, I had created a user "test" with a password and gave it to my friends to test the new server. they added & deleted files. I am guessing it's because of that. now that I added the user back, I'm not having the error anymore. gotta investigate further.

Yes, I had deleted one user. adding the user back has solved the error. now I'll have to figure out a "safe" way to delete the user.
