Problem instaling BookStack #833

ricardasg commented 6 years ago

Hi, I am having a problem instaling BookStack. The thing is I have issues with composer. When I try to install it, i get this error.
I am using php 7

Problem 1

The requested PHP extension ext-tidy * is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's tidy extension. Problem 2
Installation request for gathercontent/htmldiff ^0.2.1 -> satisfiable by gathercontent/htmldiff[0.2.1].
gathercontent/htmldiff 0.2.1 requires ext-tidy * -> the requested PHP extension tidy is missing from your system.

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
C:\xampp\php\php.ini You can also run php --ini inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.

enable extension tidy in php

ssddanbrown commented 6 years ago

Hi @ricardasg, The error kind of explains itself. This is a PHP extension required by BookStack for revisioning. To provide more detail:

Find and open the file C:\\xampp\php\php.ini for editing.
Search for the line: ;extension=php_tidy.dll in this file.
Remove the ; at the start of this line.
Save the file and retry.

Hope that helps, Please confirm if that fixes things.

Hi, if some face a similar problem on Linux and does not find the extension he may install the extension: sudo apt-get install php7.2-tidy make sure the version of PHP.

Hi @obiefy, You are commenting on an old, resolved issue.

If you still are experiencing issues I'd advise you please open a new issue with details which include the full version of linux you are using and details of how you have installed BookStack.
