Description

Expected behaviour

Sharing a file should work in the IOS-App.

Actual behaviour

When trying to share a file, the app gives an error message "Request failed: not found (404)"

Steps to reproduce

-open nextcloud ios-app
-"files" -> chose a file
-"share"-icon
-enter name of another user -> drop-down list appears -> select user

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

Obviously it is intended to work. On the android-app it works.

iOS version

13.4

App version

2.25.9.2

Server configuration

I assume the server is not the issue, because sharing works fine on the android app

Operating system:
I don't know, it is a shared host.

Web server:
Apache

Database:
mySQL

PHP version:
7.2.30

Nextcloud version: (see Nextcloud admin page)
17.0.3

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported sharing flow in the iOS app: open Files, choose a file, select Share, and select another user. Trace the request that returns 404 and compare the behavior with Android if useful. Done means sharing the selected file succeeds for the chosen user without the not-found error.
