or 

Insert your config.php content here. 
Make sure to remove all sensitive content such as passwords. (e.g. database password, passwordsalt, secret, smtp password, …)

Are you using external storage, if yes which one: local/smb/sftp/...
local

Are you using encryption: yes/no
no i dont think so

Are you using an external user-backend, if yes which one: LDAP/ActiveDirectory/Webdav/...
no i dont think so

With access to your command line run e.g.:
sudo -u www-data php occ ldap:show-config
from within your Nextcloud installation folder

"root@nextcloud:/var/www/nextcloud# sudo -u www-data php occ ldap:show-config


  There are no commands defined in the "ldap" namespace.

"

Without access to your command line download the data/owncloud.db to your local
computer or access your SQL server remotely and run the select query:
SELECT * FROM `oc_appconfig` WHERE `appid` = 'user_ldap';


Eventually replace sensitive data as the name/IP-address of your LDAP server or groups.

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #2357 (Sharing a file via email and password protect the link), #7469 (Cannot set password for share by email links), #5537 ("shared by link" doesn't show folder or files shared via email.), #9170 (redirect), and #8241 (image).

the whole option is gone. i can see the that there are old share links active, but i can unshare them because the interface is gone.

The link shares are still there, but look a bit different:

Clicking the enable will give you the link again. Unsharing works the same way it did before: just untick the checkbox again.

Does that help you?

that did not help.
there is somthing missing for me

[lordhippo93]

huh.................. that i did not expect....! the option is there, but get caught up ublock origens cosmetic filter. that was a new one for me :)

i have ublock origens in both chrome and firefox, and it fails so rarly it dident cross my mind until your picture :)

I also had another person complaining about the missing option which also resulted in the ad blocker being the cause.

We will have a look and maybe update the identifiers.

Same issue with AdGuard. For some reason, this was totally missing: https://i.imgur.com/6kjRkv4.png

So we have 2 solutions here:

1. We fix it at all the Adblockers → they will likely have more rules in the future and we need to adjust
2. We fix it in our software → this will likely mean not using the word "share" anywhere … totally stupid rule from the adblockers. Also, they might even block the word we decide to use.

Any ideas?
