SnipeIT install - anyone have a working guide?

[DustinB3403]

The topic says it all, I'm having a hell of a time getting this to setup properly.

Even following snipeit's guide isn't proving helpful as it appears to be missing critical steps.

[DustinB3403]

Yeah none of the installation instructions seem to work. I've run every version of instructions I could find here on ML, the developers website and directly from their github.

I had this working about 2 weeks ago and now nothing. I think something was changed.

Their install script still works fine for me, just created a new install with it.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snipe/snipe-it/master/install.sh
chmod 744 install.sh
./install.sh

[DustinB3403]

@Romo wtf . . .

I did the same thing and it didn't work.

@Romo what OS are you using?

Might be a newb question to ask, but did you yum update?

[DustinB3403]

@NerdyDad Yes.

[Romo]

@DustinB3403 is the install script showing you any error?
Check the scripts log /var/log/snipeit-install.log

Ok, it appears that I've got an install started here. The installer isn't happy with the php version included with the CentOS7 default repository. I used @JaredBusch's nextcloud instructions to get php71 installed: https://mangolassi.it/topic/12878/install-nextcloud-11-0-2-on-centos-7-with-php-7-1-from-remi

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it

Install composer (make sure to be a regular user and that the snipe-it directory is owned by the user account used to install composer)

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source

/opt/snipe-it/install.sh

The install is still running, but no errors now. You can probably use PHP 5.6, which you'd need to specify php56 when installing instead of PHP 7.1.

[Romo]

@travisdh1 The install script uses PHP 5.6 so anything >= to it should work =).

#Install PHP and other needed stuff.
echo "##  Installing PHP and other needed stuff";
PACKAGES="httpd mariadb-server git unzip php56u php56u-mysqlnd php56u-bcmath php56u-cli php56u-common php56u-embedded php56u-gd php56u-mbstring php56u-mcrypt php56u-ldap"

[travisdh1]

The installer finished up with no problems, but I've got this when I goto the web page:


Should've told me that during the install Looking through logs will have to wait.

Not exactly.

That installer is installing PHP 5.6 modules specifically.

Did you have to do anything else besides the above steps? I know that I ran through that process and it failed to work. Will check the logs shortly, building a clean installation.

[travisdh1]

@Romo Yep, it works. I was making it way harder than it needs to be.

[Romo]

@DustinB3403 I cloned a vanilla Centos 7 minimal vm, ran yum update, installed wget, downloaded the script and ran the script.

That got me to a working SnipeIT installation which I just used to validate my production SnipeIT vm backups and they are working fine.

The install script adds the IUS repo for PHP.

[JaredBusch]

script worked perfectly.

Just did this from a CentOS 7 Minimal r1611 ISO on my Hyper-V lab.

[DustinB3403]

Trying in my lab right now and see what occurs, if anything.
