Instead of upgrading, why not move to a fresh box with working PHP 7.1? Keep the two separate, just copy over the database.
Because I'd have to reinstall everything. . .
Um... reinstall what? It only takes a minute. And if you scripted, or followed a script, or used Ansible, Salt, etc. it's just a push of a button away.

I've been doing it like this for everything but plex at home to get the kinks out before I migrate.

Yeah, a key thing I do for installs is do a test run and then do the final via automation so that I can always recreate at any time.

The scripted install uses PHP 5.6 on CentOS 7.
He would need to move to Fedora to get around that.

I just installed Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 the other day via the install.sh script and it's running PHP 7.1.13. The script kept failing on Fedora 27.

What happens when using the script on Fedora?

snipe.shagain?I had previously installed it on Fedora 26 and had no issues. I looked at some logs but honestly couldn't figure it out and didn't have the time to dedicate to troubleshooting. Just tried CentOS 7 to see if I'd get the same message and it worked flawlessly.

Looks like the last commit to snipe.sh was mine. it should work.
Let me poke at it.
-
Shit, there is a big pull request pending for it

I would get to the pre-flight page and everything would look good. I would have a red X next to the part about the .env file but all the settings inside it looked correct. If I clicked next, I would get a page saying that "Whoops, something went wrong". Tried to install it 4 different times with same result.

None of this relates to my issue of "how the H do I upgrade php without borking the whole damn thing..." lol

It does, because our answer is to install clean and migrate the DB.

And you will get an updated version of PHP as you wish

I suppose, seems painful to do that though still.
I could simply backup my .env file I suppose.

I guess the core question I have that is irritating me is why can't I just point snipe-it to the updated version of php?

Not yet, as its mid-day and people are using the system.

That would be my recommendation then. shutdown the VM, make a snapshot, then power it on and try that.

I just went through the git history. the installer was changed to install php 7.1 on Oct 2, 2017.
