I'm glad to go over it with you in detail via email or PM if you like.
Not at the moment, cause I'm tired and need a beer lol. So won't really be paying attention.
Remind me tomorrow maybe.

Hi,
this guide no longer works on latest Centos
CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core)
I am starting to think that those install helper scripts from dev do more damage than good, and manual way are longer but better:

the script will actually report to you that it is finished installing successfully and you can browse to to your site, and it never works. so no real error was displayed. I reran everything a couple of times, same result.
I dont want you to test or re-write anything, its their installer script and they changed it. Either that or I screwed something up but I sticked to the defaults.
If you ask me installer scripts are nice and all, but they distance you from understanding the whole process, the guide I listed is not very accurate, for instance he actually use this command:
systemctl enable start httpd
but it will make you understand the whole process and troubleshoot it better. -
@emad-r try
setenforce 0
and the go to the IP address. -

but it will make you understand the whole process and troubleshoot it better.You are not supposed to know how to install this from scratch. The developers supported method is to run the install.sh.
If you do it any other way, then you need to accept that if it fails, it is your problem.
This worked on 7.3 a couple months ago when I submitted the pull request to change it to use git on CentOS 7.
I can test again later this week.

I haven't upgraded yet. But I did my initial install using option 1(git clone).
There is a detail documentation for upgrading.

I upgraded yesterday and it was a bit of a bitch to get done.

This is roughly what I had to do (with the help of @tiagom and Hinsk from Gitter)
cd /var/www/html/snipeit/
git pull
nano composer.json
Edit :
"doctrine/inflector": "1.2.*"
to be"doctrine/inflector": "1.1.*"
save the file
remove these files
rm bootstrap/cache/config.php
rm bootstrap/cache/services.php
andrm bootstrap/cache/compiled.php
composer dump
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan view:clear
php artisan config:clear
git pull
php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source
php composer.phar dump-autoload
nano .env
adding
APP_LOCALE=en
andLEGACY_APP_KEY=<duplicate_APP_KEY_value
php artisan migrate
Reboot and the site should work.
-
Of course - create a backup first!
It took us a few times in getting this process sorted out as there is an issue from the master branch and develop branch.

Having issues upgrading.
One issue I have is can't remember the original install method but I think I used the install.sh method from 1st post.so I've cd into /var/www/html/snipeit
git pull
that seems to bring new files down
vi composer.json
looked at the file and doctrine/inflector": "1.2." is already set to 1.1.rm bootstrap/cache/config.php
says there is no file ???composer dump
gives mecomposer: command not found
Could I backup the DB do a fresh install the restore? or has the structure changed in the DB???

This is the upgrade process (as it should work). But I believe I had the same issue. You might want to jump onto gitter and ask them to assist you with that as I don't recall what I had to do to correct it.
-
@dustinb3403 Yeah that's the procedure I've been trying to follow then tried what you mentioned above.
OK i'll have a look gitter and see what I can work out But will leave it till Monday now

Have anyone installed Snipe-IT by using option 1 and then upgraded successfully to v4?

@scottalanmiller said in Installing Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 and MariaDB:
vi app/config/app.php
This is wrong
Should be:
vi config/app.php
It's no longer in the app directory.
-
Looks like timezone is set to UTC by default now.
-
@scottalanmiller said in Installing Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 and MariaDB:
php artisan app:install
This also no longer works as of version 3...
-
Also, nothing about opening firewall ports in this guide.
