ownCloud "Downgrading not supported" after apt-get upgrade

I am running an ownCloud installation on Raspbian on an RPi2 and I just ran:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

Now I get the following message when I try to go to my ownCloud-site in the browser:

Downgrading is not supported and is likely to cause unpredictable issues (from 8.2.2.2 to 8.1.5.2)

I did not make any changes and definitely didn't do any downgrade (consciously). The files are stored on an external HDD and seem to be unaffected. I wasn't really actively using my cloud storage yet (fortunately), so I wouldn't really mind if the data I had put there was lost, but I'd like to keep the other data stored on the HDD (outside the ownCloud folder) if possible. What would you suggest as the best way forward? I thought about just removing ownCloud via apt-get purge - or would that be unsave or leave some junk on my system (I'd maybe have to delete the database manually)? And how can I avoid this problem in the future?

same problem here - find out that i have old owncloud http in source list: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/community/Debian_7.0/

new one is (check official page) http://download.owncloud.org/download/repositories/stable/Debian_7.0/

change it, run upgrade again and manually disable maintenance mode (in /var/www/owncloud/config/config.php)

thank you fixed if still have problems try this

Stop the upgrade process this way: cd /var/www/owncloud/ sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:mode --off And start the manual process: sudo -u www-data php occ upgrade If this does not work properly, try the repair function: sudo -u www-data php occ maintenance:repair

have a look at https://www.der-webcode.de/owncloud-manuelles-updateupgrade-von-owncloud/. Works fine for me. Don't forget to set Maintaince to false in your config.php.

Same issue for me... Just this morning... I think it's necessary to download current release from OwnCloud and re-install starting from it. But before: I'll check if is possible to add OwnCloud as source of apt package, so a new apt-get update / apt-get upgrade will solve the problem and avoid future similar issues.
