Description

When I try to connect my android Notes app, nothing happens and I receive an error message. I believe it is a server error and not due to the android app.

Steps to reproduce

  1. open Notes app
  2. press on 'Choose account'
  3. select account (connected through Nextcloud app) and press 'ok'
Expected behaviour

Connect to nextcloud server Notes

Actual behaviour

Nothing happens and an error message is reported

Research direction

Start with the Android stack trace at ImportAccountActivity.java:102 and CapabilitiesClient.java:38, then inspect the Nextcloud server response and logs for the HTTP 500. Reproduce the account import with the listed app and server versions; done means the account connects without the reported error.
