Cross-node share fails if gs.federation is set to its default value

[pmarini-nc]

In the following setup:

• Global Site Selector Node: Nextcloud Enterprise 21.0.7 with Global Site Selector 2.0.0
• Global Scale Nodes. Nextcloud Enterprise 21.0.7 with Global Site Selector 2.0.0

if a user user1@gs-node1 tries to share a resource with user user1@gs-node2 the share fails with

Error creating the share: Sharing Templates failed, could not find user1@gs-node2, maybe the server is currently unreachable or uses a self-signed certificate.

gs-node2 is reachable from gs-node1 (they are on the same network) and no self-signed certificate are in use (I'm using mkcert to simulate trusted certificates).

If I set gs.federation to true, it works. According to documentation though, I understand that setting this parameter to true shouldn't be needed in a Global Scale setting.

This seems to be a server issue actually, see nextcloud/server#14323 from the implementation I cannot really see yet how the gs nodes should be allowed if the mode is set to internal.

Thank you @juliushaertl . I'm not sure then if we should keep this issue open or not?

Fine to close here I think, maybe you can just add the server related ticket to the overviews where this one was mentioned.

Sure
