I saw other "invalid URL" issues that seemed related but most of them are either quite old or hitting at a different moment (people seem to be able to log in), so I open a new one.

Steps to reproduce

1. Log out or install the app to get to self-hosted server URL page
2. Enter server URL
3. Fail

Expected behaviour

The app should redirect to the user login screen.

Actual behaviour

Right when typing enter after the server URL, get pop-up message "Invalid URL".

Logs

Unfortunately, I don't have any logs.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

The server is fully functional, accessible from the URL https://nessie.kimou.fr from a web browser, from the Android client, from the Linux and Windows desktop apps. I don't have access to a different iOS device to test if the problem is this specific device or the iOS app in general.

Environment data

iOS version: e.g. iOS 18.6.2

Nextcloud iOS app version: 7.1.2

Server operating system: docker

Web server: nginx (swag)

Database: mysql 11.4.8

PHP version: 8.3.25

Nextcloud version: 31.0.8

I'm having the same problem

I‘m getting this connection error now as well, in a setup that was working flawlessly before. Unfortunately I can not pin down if/which Update triggered the issue.

iOS 18.7.1 NXC app: 7.1.9.1 NXC Server: 32.0.9

I'm having the same issue at the moment and this is basically the only thing coming up on Google.

For me, I had rebuilt my Nextcloud server from scratch and had to do a migration.

When I deleted my account from my Nextcloud app and added a new one (different login, same URL), it was throwing the "invalid server URL, error: -1000" error.

Deleted the app from my iPhone which deleted all of it's on-device data that was cached. Reinstalled and logged in again; all working.

So just noting that it might just be the app caching weird things.

Deleting the ios app and reinstalling it solved the problem for me.
