Description: When tapping on "ownCloud" in the file open dialog (upper left corner), a message appears "Unspecified error connecting to ownCloud server". It actually does connect to the server but then fails. Connecting with the native ownCloud client for Android succeeds. Perhaps this is because the ownCloud API has been changed (dav vs. webdav). The native client connects successfully to /remote.php/dav/... while LibreOffice Viewer tries to connect to /remote.php/webdav/. (The OC server version is 10.3.2) Here are the server logs: 1. nginx/access.log: xxx.xxx.213.153 - thomas [06/Jan/2020:09:45:50 +0100] "PROPFIND /remote.php/webdav/ HTTP/1.1" 207 23291 "-" "Android-ownCloud" 1a. successful connection with the native ownCloud client: xxx.xxx.213.153 - thomas [06/Jan/2020:13:08:59 +0100] "PROPFIND /remote.php/dav/files/thomas/documents/example.odt HTTP/1.1" 207 892 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Android) ownCloud-android/2.14.1" 2. owncloud.log (loglevel=0 (debug)): Exception: HTTP/1.1 401 No public access to this resource., No 'Authorization: Basic' header found.

I'm wondering whether it makes sense to implement/maintain a separate ownCloud connector in the LibreOffice Android app after all or it wouldn't make more sense to use Android's "system file dialog" to select files, which can be triggered via Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT. This way, everything for which a DocumentsProvider is available will be available, if the app is modified to support those. That would mean that there's no need to implement support for all of the different providers (like ownCloud, NextCloud, Google Drive,...) separately, but those work "automatically" once the user has installed and configured the corresponding apps (like the NextCloud app for access to NextCloud, etc.).
Moving to NEW and changing to enhancement

A series of patches implementing this is now in Gerrit, s. https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/112769 and its parent changes. I only quickly tested with Nextcloud and opening, editing and saving back files worked. When the connection to the Nextcloud server does not work properly (e.g. due to network issues,...), the app might "hang" for a while (but I didn't do any closer testing so far), which is one of the aspects that could probably be improved further if necessary (and somebody has the time + motivation to work on it).

(In reply to Michael Weghorn from comment #7) > A series of patches implementing this is now in Gerrit, s. > https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/112769 and its parent changes. I've merged the patches now. Opening and editing files from ownCloud and nextCloud should work again starting with the next daily build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Android-ARM@86-TDF/ **when the corresponding NextCloud/ownCloud app is installed in addition**. I only quickly tested with a demo NextCloud instance myself. Closing this bug as RESOLVED. In case you run into issues, please write it here (if it still doesn't work at all) or open new bug reports and leave a link here (if there is a specific aspect that doesn't work as you think it should).
