I have installed the latest version and it seems to be working correctly. I backed up all files and moved them in from the backup copy into the new OC installation directory. Syncing with the local copy took some time but it seems OK now.

Notwithstanding, I tried to get 8.2.7 and test if occ would run with php7. I moved /var/www/ownCloud to /var/www/ownCloud.bak and placed ownCloud from the tar.bz2 there. Then I ran "sudo su - www-data occ upgrade" but it said "This account is currently not available". I got "scared" and reverted /var/www/ownCloud.bak to its previous location (one user could change a file meanwhile and cause an error).

Unless I made a mistake when I tried this before, when I ran occ from the tar.bz2 it asked for php5. And php5.6 wouldn't do. But I may not remember correctly, so you may be correct.

If there is a safe way to test if occ runs with php7 in my current installation, I can test it if you like.

Thanks.

Hi,

i still think that you don't get the point here. Just:

1. Remove all files and folders except /data/ and /config/ from
/var/www/owncloud
2. Download the current version of your branch (e.g. 8.2.7) from
https://owncloud.org/changelog/
3. Extract the content of the archive to /var/www/owncloud
4. Run occ upgrade

Repeat this steps with 9.0.4 and 9.1.0. This issue here is not about any
dependency issue or distro upgrade. You just have skipped an major release
which is unsupported as stated at various points.
