## Description

"Once upon a time…", you need to connect at your WebUI Nextcloud, with your ids. Normal!

But, this day, you cant: impossible to connect. You're redirected on `login?redirect_url=/apps/files/` and your ids are asked again! Booo.

"You're under a loop login!"

## Resolution

{{< color red >}}Check{{< /color >}} :

* **read an write permissions** on thoses folders:
    * `netcloud` : `0750`
    * `cache` : `0755`
    * and, for the sessions PHP: `0750` seems to be functional, else `0755`.
* **user rights** on same folders: those of your web user and group; default, on OpenBSD `www`, but this depends on your web architecture *(i.e, Apache, Nginx, etc)* and your {{< abbr OS "Operating System" >}}.

### OpenBSD

On OpenBSD, I noticied this little problem: after a PHP upgrade, user rights on folders `cache`, `tmp` in the chroot are reset for `root:daemon` and `0700` with `sticky bit`.

It seems necessary to set at the web user, web group and change again read and write permissions to `0755`.
