Steps to reproduce

open folder containing # in iOS Nextcloud App

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

its a bug

iOS version

13.3.1

App version

2.25.9.2

Briefly explained, as you can also see in the server logs above, the iOS app fails to encode # to %23, as it should, and the server therefore truncates the URL at the #. This might also happen for other special characters, please check. Doesn't happen for Android App, Web UI or Sync Clients on Windows and MacOSX.

This is a problematic bug and not a feature request. Would you mind to add the "bug" label?

[rygen]

Not sure if this is related to the same issue, but lately I've been seeing 405's being thrown all the time when using the iOS app. I even tried a fresh install of the app but I'm still greeted by the pesky 405s.

At a first glance it appears to me that the issue here might be solved with processing the string with .addingPercentEncoding(withAllowedCharacters: .urlQueryAllowed). I don't know exactly where to look since it's a big project and I haven't touched it in a few years 🙈, but I'm happy to try it out and submit a PR - I must first find where the "offending" text is though... any hints appreciated :)

Regarding my pool of 405s,

Steps to reproduce:

Build the app from the develop branch Login with an empty test user Go to files

Expected results:

No error

Actual results:

Error with message "Request failed: method not allowed (405)"

Further info

To reproduce it several times, you can for instance switch from the tab More to Media.

I can move this to a new ticket if not related to #1196.

@rygen du you have try with the version 3 in TestFlight?

[rygen]

@marinofaggiana regarding my device - I was still on the App Store version. I've now tried the TestFlight version as you suggested and the 405s seem to be gone. 🎉 However, the reproduction steps above were done after building from the latest commit on develop.
