405 Error - Related to ownCloud being hosted on URL with a directory

[liamoreilly]

Hi,

I am getting a 405 error when executing this script. The error I get is:

bash-5.1# php restore.php --url=https://xxxxx/owncloud --username="test.user" --password="xxxxx" --date="2022-05-24"

Deprecated: Return type of Symfony\Component\Console\Helper\HelperSet::getIterator() should either be compatible with IteratorAggregate::getIterator(): Traversable, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /app/vendor/symfony/console/Helper/HelperSet.php on line 94
Collection files to restore
Found 1 files to restore 
ERROR: The requested URL returned error: 405
File ownCloud Manual.pdf restored

I think the deprecated warning can be ignored. What is strange here is that it is correctly identifying the number of files to restore. So the communication seems to be working to some extent.

Any idea on what goes wrong here.

I am using PHP8.1. Our owncloud server is 10.9.1 (stable).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Liam

The issue seems to be that the restore URL is being computed incorrectly.

The value of $trashbinRecord['remoteUrl'] in the function restoreTrashbinData starts with "owncloud" (at least in our setup).

The URL we provide to the script is: https://mydomain.com/owncloud

The value of $trashbinRecord['remoteUrl'] ends up being /owncloud/remote.php/dav/trash-bin/test.user/6542166 which is then combined with $this->URI to form https://mydomain.com/owncloud/owncloud/remote.php/dav/trash-bin/test.user/6542166 (Line 103 of lib/RestoreTrash.php).

I guess the issue is that this script expects ownCloud to be available at the root of the domain. Not sure exactly.
