NextCloud and PHP 7
-
I've been building on Fedora 25 because of this issue.
-
That the recommended method isn't supported is a foundational problem - it indicates that no supported or recommended at least option exists.
-
-
And the supported platform list specifically states PHP5.6 + required. So that is not any different because it is not part of RHEL/CentOS.
-
That's why I decided to just make the leap. Once I was not going with 5.4 it just didn't feel like any of it made sense.
It works beautifully on F25.
-
@scottalanmiller I will not continue to support and recommend a company that cannot be bothered to do anything except tell me to become a customer when they purport to be such a FOSS supporting company. This is really f[moderated] basic.
Provide the method required to be considered a valid install path for the recommended system configuration.
Why would I ever want to trust them for anything when they say one thing and act another way.

That is not even on their supported list BTW. I mean I know what Fedora is, but it is specifically not listed.
-
I don't think that there is an end to end supported option. Either the OS or the PHP is going to be outside of support. No way to get every vendor to consider it supported for their portion.

Yeah that's frustrating. I actually opted to stay with Nextcloud 10 this time around because when I attempted to upgrade to PHP 7 and install Nextcloud 11 with my test server I ran into a lot of problems.

Almost exactly one year ago btw on the first shit storm on this..

I am looking to perform a new install.

Right--that's what I was doing, but I still needed to upgrade to PHP 7 to get Nextcloud 11 working and never could
-
Is NextClouds business model to offer support for people who install this themselves?
-
NethServer 7 has NextCloud built in. Maybe they are the official install
-
And @jospoortvliet still seems as clueless as last year. I get he is marketing and not technical. But FFS, just get a technical lead to post an officially recommended repo for acquiring PHP 5.6+
-
@JaredBusch I know you favor CentOS, and I do too, but what about Ubuntu 16.04?
-
For those CentOS 7 users. You can use IUS repo. When installing SnipeIT with their script, it use EPEL (required) and IUS.
yum install php71u
-
@black3dynamite Thanks for that

Yeah, someone from the ownCloud team had finally posted a recommendation last year, for a source and I believe they used IUS.
I had already went forward with using Remi by that point though.
Again, right now, I want the official recommendation from NextCloud.
SHould be dead simple, but it is apparently not.
-
I understand the perspective of both sides on this. I see Jared's frustrations and I see the NC team's frustrations.
From Jared's side of it, I do believe you are owed an answer.
I can also see the frustration from the NC team. They make a really nice, capable product and probably 98% of users are using it for free. They need to sell support to keep their doors open.
