nextcloud.log fails "check for expected files" while update

Thanks for helping improve our documentation!

• There is always room for improvement!
• All contributions (changes and change ideas) - from the largest to the tiniest - help make Nextcloud better and easier to use!

In the documentation the example config for file based logging is

"log_type" => "file",
"logfile" => "nextcloud.log",
"loglevel" => 3,
"logdateformat" => "F d, Y H:i:s",

The last update from Nextcloud 31.05 to 31.06 apparently doesnt't expect the log file in /var/www/nextcloud/, so it fails the first check.

Changing the file path to:
"logfile" => "data/nextcloud.log",
resolved the issue for me.

Notes

• Please be patient: this is a large open source project that is overseen by a mixture of volunteers and non-volunteers which are all ultimately busy.
• If your suggestion is a troubleshooting scenario or one you're not 100% certain about, please post for feedback on the Nextcloud Help Forum first.
  • Then return here to bring back your experience to help improve the documentation for clarity, etc. (and link back to the forum discussion in your report!)

Protip: If you want to help move things along (or just help out in other ways too) here are some suggestions:

• Look for areas where you can assist - even seemingly unrelated areas - because doing so frees up resources for your favorite topics and ideas.
• Submit a proposed change - that attempts to addresses your issue - as a pull request.
• Participate in a discussion on some other unresolved submitted idea ("issues") to help move it along.
• Post a comment or review on someone else's proposed change ("pull request") to help move it along.

Start with the linked logging configuration documentation and its file-based logging example. Verify whether the reported update check requires the log path under data/nextcloud.log, then update the example if confirmed; done means the documented configuration matches the current update behavior.
