In case of problems please update the database manually to db shema from 175 to 176 using the scripts:

H2, MySQL, MSSQL, PGSQL

Improvement: Auto Cleanup "phantom" folders

It was possible that folders got stuck - only visible on client, hidden in web portal, but not on server storage. Creating a new folder with the same name was also not possible.

To cleanup this add/set the following entry to PowerFolder.config at the server:

server.sync.mandatory=true

Default behavior:

server.sync.mandatory=false

New Feature: Set minimum Client version to connect

To prevent older clients from connecting to the server set the following entry in PowerFolder.config:

net.version.minimum=17.2.100

by default the value is empty. That means any compatible version will be allowed to connect.

Support: ONLYOFFICE EE v7.X

PowerFolder server now supports the OO v7.X in docker or as stand alone installations, for update your installation please visit: ONLYOFFICE Setup Guide

MS Office 2003 formats e.g. DOC / XLS / PPT are not supported anymore, a new installation of PF server is installed with the new config. For the existing installation, after update please change the PowerFolder.config as follows:

web.inline_view.onlyoffice.extensions=xlsx|rtf|csv|docx|pptx|txt|pdf|epub|xps|odp|odt|ods
