Upgrade to Nextcloud 30 — Nextcloud latest Administration Manual latest documentation

# Upgrade to Nextcloud 30

## System requirements

- PHP 8.1 is now deprecated but still supported.

- PHP 8.0 is no longer supported.

- PostgreSQL 9.4 is no longer supported.

- MariaDB 10.3 and 10.5 are no longer supported.

## Web server configuration

Make sure that your web server is serving files with the `webp` extension (WebP images) correctly as static assets. This is included in the shipped `.htaccess` file but if you use another web server or custom configuration you need to check this manually.

## Nextcloud configuration

Changes to the available options in `config.php`.

- The option `blacklisted_files` is now deprecated and replaced with `forbidden_filenames`

- The option `forbidden_chars` is now deprecated and replaced with `forbidden_filename_characters`

- The option `forbidden_filename_basenames` was added to allow bocking files with specific basenames (the filename without extension (before the first dot))

- The option `forbidden_filename_extensions` was added to allow blocking extensions from being used on filenames

## Previews for PDF files with Imaginary

The preview provider `OC\Preview\Imaginary` is no longer generating previews for PDF files. Add the new preview provider `OC\Preview\ImaginaryPDF` to `enabledPreviewProviders` to enable preview generation with Imaginary for PDF files.

## Automated clean-up of app password

Nextcloud 30 will clean-up unused app passwords.

## Monitoring: Counting of active users

Starting with Nextcloud 30.0.12 the monitoring app was adjusted to count the active users in the same way as occ user:report and the support app.

## AppAPI (app_api) is now a default app

Starting with Nextcloud 30.0.1, the AppAPI app is included and enabled by default. See ExApps management for details.

You can disable this app in the standard manner via the Apps menu if you do not expect to use AppAPI integrations in the near future.

If AppAPI is disabled, other apps that depend on it will not be visible in the app store. AppAPI-related setup checks will also be deactivated.
