@nfebe could this issue be related to your pull in regards to sharing #49115?
garyx commentedon Dec 5, 2024
This exact behavior is also happening for our setup as seen with the screen recording the OP provided with an upgraded instance to NC 30.0.3.
Though we do not have a "default share expiry and force a date" enabled on our end.
We do have "Always ask for a password" enabled. Disabling that does fix this issue for us, but that's not optimal.

For the case it helps: I do not have the password enforcing set in administrative settings and made some tests. The problem is even more severe: Although you can create share-Links with password if not enforced in admin settings, when those share links are opened, no password necessary and link is opened!
mwildam commentedon Dec 6, 2024
I am on MariaDB and not on PostgreSQL btw, so not a DB provider specific issue.
mwildam commentedon Dec 6, 2024
When the expiration date is enforced the creation of the link popup dialog is not closed and the link is not created. You could click the button several times and it seems to create the link several times. But when you finally click cancel and refresh the page those links are all gone:
mwildam commentedon Dec 6, 2024
In my opinion when the enforcing of passwords and expiry dates is deactivated there is no further critical issue if the user carefully ready possible error messages before they vanish.
mwildam commentedon Dec 6, 2024
What is strange: If I enforce password protection and disable in security the 2 password checks against haveibnpwned and common passwords, the same problem with the expiring date occurs although no expiration date enforced.
I have set minimum password length to 8 characters in this test.
