Nextcloud sync fails on all but the default profile

This could probably play a role because of https ://nextcloud.com/office/, especially if several users are to be able to edit the same document at the same time.

I'm really grateful you're putting so much effort into this. After updating both the desktop client and the Android client, now the sync seems to run smoothly – with one exception: When I hit the “check sync settings” button in one of my four profiles on the Android client, it returns this message:

“Error: Please check that URL, username, password, etc. are correct and that the sync target is accessible. The reported error was: WebDAV directory not found”

Since the sync with the same Nextcloud server works for all the other profiles (and for all profiles on the macOS client), there's a small chance the problem lies with the Nextcloud user account, which I am about to investigate, but I presume the Joplin app on Android might be the cause of the issue as well. When I ignore the failed sync test and initiate the sync it spits out a “completed” message followed by “Last error: Error: MKCOL locks/: Parent node does not exist (Exception Sabre\DAV\Exception\Conflict) (409): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <d:error xmlns:d="DAV:" xmlns:s="http://sabredav.org/ns"> <s:exception>Sabre\DAV\Exception\Conflict</s:exception> <s:message>Parent node does not exist</s:message> </d:error>

When I do a search on SabreDAV, its website says that it comes with an experimental WebDAV-Client that's a wrapper around curl. Can we rule out that the Joplin Android app implements alpha/beta stage code from that WebDAV client?

(I triple checked my config input in the Joplin Android app, and even retyped the URL when I noticed a bug that moves the cursor to the left of a character that I insert anywhere in the string but the very end.)

Update to NextCloud 28.0.8 did not fix the problem

Who needs to do what to ensure that the fix/workaround proposed by @roman_r_m is included in the Joplin release schedule?
