Bug description
Desktop Clients für Windows and Mac don‘t display the links generated for a file or folder.
One can generate new shares that work, but the next time one right-click the file/folder to get the link, the share info is not displayed. It is on the web interface though.
That is ONLY (!) when one is not the owner of the folder where the file/folder is placed though. For all shares created in ones own folders, it works.
Steps to reproduce
- Right click on the file
- Click on Share Options
- Click + to generate a link OR enter username in the field above
- Close the window
- Right click on the file again
- Click on Share Options again
- See that the share dialog does not display the generated share
Expected behavior
Shares should be displayed ...

Additional info
I don't have logs I can share.
This has become a serious issue for us. Is no one experiencing this? 3.16.5 has not fixed it.
I just tried to reproduce it locally (with client 3.16.5 and server 31.0.5.1) and it's working fine on my end 🤔
can you try running the client with the --logdebug parameter and check the debug logs for anything related to OCC::ShareManager, src\gui\filedetails, and /ocs/v2.php/apps/files_sharing/ when you open the sharing dialogue? I can provide a file drop link if you don't want to share those logs here on GitHub
Thanks for taking a look at this, @nilsding I don't have access to instances running above 30.0.4, so it could be a server issue. It is though reproducible in all three instances I have access to, all running 30.0.4.
Will report back once I was able to test with 30.0.5 or newer.
