Hey,

for a test case I installed old ownCloud 3.0.3 and copied later our lovely OC 4 over it. That's the upgrade path.

Few hours later I wondered about an error:
Error: scanFiles is not defined Source File: http://192.168.56.222/owncloud/apps/files_sharing/js/share.js Line: 220

The cause was that instead of
/apps/files/js/files.js
the old
/files/js/files.js
has been loaded.

Of course this and other files remained (actually whole /files) there after copying.

What can we do?

a) When running the update routine the affected app should remove old files. Problems can arise, when the web user has not enough privileges to remove them. In that case, detailed info should be shown.

b) Instruct users to delete everything but the config and data folder for upgrade reasons and only then copy all the new files.
That's not so-so funny for packaging, I believe. And complicated-ugly.

I pledge for a ;)

=> in any case we need upgrade instructions on owncloud.org :)

Afaik it only affects /files so far, however this scenario can come up again.

What do you think?

Cheers
Arthur
