Unable to add external storage as user

[Ra72xx]

I cannot add any external storage as OC user. The permission to do so has been granted in the admin settings.
However, when I try to enter the configuration of an external storage in the user's settings page, only the fields "name" and "type" are available at all. No more configuration can be entered.
Also it is not possible to add the storage manually by creating a data/user/mount.json-file. An external storage added this way does not appear in the "all files" view of OC's file manager. It does appear, however, when clicking on the "external storage" panel of the file manager, but cannot be browsed.
The same external storage works flawlessly when added as admin in the admin config page.

Can you post a full bug report as described here please?

I'll look into it when I've time.
But the problem is quite simple to reproduce for me: Try to add an external storage as user. The fields in which to put the detailed configuration simply do not appear on the personal configuration page, be it with Firefox or Rekonq (webkit). Web server (nginx) does not give any error, Owncloud does not log any error, Firefox console (I don't know too much about that, however) shows no special events. All software is on current stable release.

Steps to reproduce

1. Try to add an external storage to OC from user's config panel (not admin!)
2. Only the fields "folder name" and the dropbox with which you can select the type of external estorage are available.
3. Therefore no external storage can be added, as you're not able to correcty configure it.

Variant:

1. Add external storage to OC from admin's control panel, working as expected.
2. Copy the relevant lines from data/mount.json to data/user/mount.json
3. External storage appears in OC's file browser, but not in the "all files"-view, only in the "external storage"-view. It cannot be browsed, however, clicking it goes to the home-drawer.

Expected behaviour

User should be able to add external storage.

Actual behaviour

User is unable to add external storage as the necessary config options are not available in the web interface. Manually adding w

looks like the problem is tied to 'asset-pipeline.enabled' => true,

as a workaround you may try to disable this feature.

[Ra72xx]

Disabling the asset cache indeed seems to solve the problem, thx for the hint. However, running OC on very low end hw, I'm glad for every performance saver I can get, so it would be great to have this bug fixed.

[PVince81]

Strange, how can these be related ?

@Xenopathic do you have an idea ?

[RobinMcCorkell]

The inability to copy across a configuration from the admin mount.json to the user's one is probably a syntax problem - there are some subtle differences. However, as far as the actual issue is concerned, I think that asset-pipeline.enabled causes some problem loading JS files for the files_external section in Personal settings.

[ldidry]

I've got another problem that setting asset-pipeline.enabled to false resolved: the javascript files of the personal settings page for the activity app weren't loaded and so, I could'nt change the settings from the interface.

Just an idea (I've got a similar problem when developing Lutim): maybe the javascript files that are concatenated and compressed are not ending with a semi-colon and prevents the javascript code to be correctly evaluated. I solved the problem by inserting a file containing a semi-colon between each file.

[RobinMcCorkell]

Reproduced it on master.

[rjaeckel]

Same in my installation with enabled asset-pipeline.
Esp. the "personal"-Page did not work properly. FF logs two Entries in the Console about that:
TypeError: (intermediate value)(...) is not a function
TypeError: $(...).fileupload is not a function

May be the order of the scripts is wrong? With disabled asset-pipeline the CSP-Errors remain, without any negative effect.

@DeepDiver1975 another asset pipeline issue like the one from documents

[vutang50]

I had the same issue on my installation. Along with this, users were not able to add a personal avatar with asset-pipeline.enabled. As soon as I removed the setting, not only were users able to add their own storage but they were able to set their own avatars.
