Does this happen in the Text app (i.e. when accessed from Files) too or from Notes?
I access it from Files, then this is probably the wrong app I reported the bug against.
@cryptomilk if you open a markdown file from the Files app, this opens the Nextcloud Text editor, which is in this very repo. So you reported it at the right place 😊
Some questions to get a better understanding:
- Do you experience this with one particular file or with different/all markdown files?
- Does it happen all the time you open a markdown file or only sometimes?
- Does this only happen for existing markdown files, or also if you create a new markdown file using the plus button in the Files app?
- Do you use the Nextcloud Desktop sync client?
- Can you please provide a screenshot of the editor when running into this error?
- Create a markdown file text.md
- Open the text.md
- Write some text
- Close it
- Open it again and I get the error
Looking at the console it seems to fail to save it. But if I can create a file and upload files, why shouldn't I not be able to save the text file? There is no issue with any other file including onlyoffice. It is just this text app.
I had the same problem where the text app would complain that there is a conflict and would fail to save files on NC 32.0.2. The related errors were:

Upon inspection of /data/appdata_oc6pscrih1eo/text, there was no documents directory for some reason. There was a documents_old_1762109792 though. I simply created the directory at /data/appdata_oc6pscrih1eo/text/documents and now it works again.
@LMBishop the error Could not create path "/appdata_oc6pscrih1eo/text/documents/291588.yjs" sounds suspicious. Do you have the folder /appdata_oc6pscrih1eo/text/documents on your instance? Also do you use any special network/cluster filesystem setup for storage?
No I did not have that directory, which is why I recreated it manually, after which it all started working again. I got some advice on IRC to rename the documents_old_1762109792 directory I had back to documents which had the same effect.
I am not sure why my documents directory disappeared. Perhaps an update removed it, as evidenced by the documents_old_1762109792 directory, but I do not know enough about this. The filesystem is a NFS mount, but I do not see a scenario where only this specific app would be affected by that. Either way, it works now as intended after recreating that directory.
