Feature description

In Nextcloud appear a Wrong row format error that seems could not be solved by the Nextcloud updater or an OCC command.

Steps to reproduce

Update from V30 to v31

To solve these Problems, only an obscure database hack seems possible to solve this:
https://help.nextcloud.com/t/upgrade-to-nextcloud-hub-10-31-0-0-incorrect-row-format-found-in-your-database/218366

In my opinion, Nextcloud created this error, so Nextcloud should also correct this.

I think it is a shame that Nextcloud publish an Update that lead to an error in the database that could not be automatically corrected.

Nextcloud think something is not set up the best possible way? Then Nextcloud should also give a solution. And a link to SQL documentation is not what I understand as a proper solution.

Expected behavior

Possible behavior 1:

• Nextcloud Update
• check for database entries which need changes
• do it

Possible behavior 2:

• Nextcloud Update
• check for database entries which need changes
• create split it into smal steps and do it when possible

Possible behavior 3

• Nextcloud Update
• check for database entries which need changes
• allow admin to repair it by an occ command

#!/bin/bash

# Prompt for database credentials
read -p "Enter Database Name: " DB_NAME
read -p "Enter Username: " DB_USER
read -s -p "Enter Password: " DB_PASS
echo

# Execute all ALTER TABLE statements in one query
mysql -u "$DB_USER" -p"$DB_PASS" "$DB_NAME" -Bse "
SELECT CONCAT('ALTER TABLE \`', TABLE_NAME, '\` ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC;') 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = '$DB_NAME' 
AND ENGINE = 'InnoDB'
" | mysql -u "$DB_USER" -p"$DB_PASS" "$DB_NAME"
