regarding snipe/snipe-it#8750 any love?
I've edited the original script to install php 7.4 and all goes well.
however, the login page appears blank.

I fixed it by issuing:
sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit
sudo chmod -R 755 storage/
sudo chmod -R 755 public/uploads

But why? if the user that script uses "snipeitapp" belongs to the apache group?

The original script is here:
https://snipe-it.readme.io/docs/downloading

I replaced the following:
echo "* Adding IUS, epel-release and MariaDB repositories."
log "yum -y install wget epel-release yum-utils"

#log "yum -y install https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm"
#log "rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/IUS-COMMUNITY-GPG-KEY"
log "yum -y install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm"
log "yum-config-manager --enable remi-php74"

echo "* Installing Apache httpd, PHP, MariaDB and other requirements."
#PACKAGES="httpd mariadb-server git unzip php71u php71u-mysqlnd php71u-bcmath php71u-cli php71u-common php71u-embedded php71u-gd php71u-mbstring php71u-mcrypt php71u-ldap php71u-json php71u-simplexml php71u-process"

@yosiasz

@samotelf so you are good now? it is working?

samotelf

@samotelf

@yosiasz It was lways working.

@yosiasz my production env is always working :)
although I'm always trying to contribute, and maybe migrate my prod environment since the first time it was installed manually.
For the purpose of others I was just trying to install clean using the script provided by:

Snipe-It Install Script
Script created by Mike Tucker
mtucker6784@gmail.com

In CentOS 7 with php 7.4.

everything went well.
now if i try to visit.

samotelf

@samotelf

blank page with error:

file_put_contents(/var/www/html/snipeit/storage/framework/cache/cf/90/cf906e7195218453e4ff6f1bdcdc6b2d9f6cae71): failed to open stream: Permission denied

this did not happened before using the script.

so if i do a ls -la /var/www/html/snipeit the permissions are correct

so now ill do a:
sudo chmod -R 755 storage/
sudo chmod -R 755 public/uploads

no, i will not

samotelf

@samotelf

becasue its already 775 wich means the group apache can write it, and the user snipeitapp is inside apache.

is this that i dont understand

[root@localhost snipeit]# cat /etc/group | grep snipeitapp
apache:x:48:snipeitapp
snipeitapp:x:1000:
[root@localhost snipeit]#

where am i being a dumbass?

samotelf

@samotelf

exactly:
it only works when i do a sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit

no me gusta

Yosi

@yosiasz

ok @samotelf let's take it from the top. Help me help you.
You are trying to to install a clean snipeit using a script provided by MIke Tucker?

samotelf

@samotelf

@yosi I am, but the script is deprecated.

Yosi

@yosiasz

so why are you using it :)

samotelf

@samotelf

so I changed the script.

Yosi

@yosiasz

ah, got it you are trying to fix it up so that others can use it

samotelf

@samotelf

because i want to fix the script to help others

yes.

Yosi

@yosiasz

:clap:

where is this script at now? I can take a look

samotelf

@samotelf

i was here before in snipeit forum, I even got an user testimony mention, albeit with other name

sure

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

the install .sh will download the snipeit.sh
Take a look at line 655 to 668

I replaced it with this:

`echo "* Adding IUS, epel-release and MariaDB repositories."
log "yum -y install wget epel-release yum-utils"
#log "yum -y install https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm"
#log "rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/IUS-COMMUNITY-GPG-KEY"
log "yum -y install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm"
log "yum-config-manager --enable remi-php74"

echo "* Installing Apache httpd, PHP, MariaDB and other requirements."
#PACKAGES="httpd mariadb-server git unzip php71u php71u-mysqlnd php71u-bcmath php71u-cli php71u-common php71u-embedded php71u-gd php71u-mbstring php71u-mcrypt php71u-ldap php71u-json php71u-simplexml php71u-process"
PACKAGES="httpd mariadb-server git unzip php php-mysqlnd php-bcmath php-mcrypt php-gd php-curl php-mysql php-mbstring php-ldap php-xml php-zip php-posix"
install_packages`

samotelf

@samotelf

basically, I just install yum-utils and add the repo for php 7.4

if you look at the script you will see that he does set permissions in line 220:

echo "* Setting permissions." for chmod_dir in "$APP_PATH/storage" "$APP_PATH/public/uploads"; do chmod -R 775 "$chmod_dir" done

and in line 225 makes the direcroy owned by snipeitapp:apache

so far so good

what puzzles me is that this work in the past, i remember this working.
now, it will only work if I chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit

maybe a preciosism but wouldnt it be better to be owner:group instead of group:group?

bathroom brb :)

samotelf

@samotelf

back

@yosiasz your 2 cents please?

Yosi

@yosiasz

sorry, got distracted by something else.

samotelf

@samotelf

np :)

samotelf

@samotelf

@yosiasz i'll have to leave.
I'll be back later.

In conclusion: There's something wrong with permissions.
Maybe leaving with apache:apache it's not so bad.
My prod env is like that.
dinner time.
see you.

Yosi

@yosiasz

ok boss, enjoy dinner

samotelf

@samotelf

@yosiasz any news?

Yosi

@yosiasz
