Clean installation with PHP 8.2 is not working #916

Open HonkXL opened 1 year ago

HonkXL commented 1 year ago

Tying to perform a clean install on AlmaLinux 8 with PHP 8.2 and MariaDB 10.8.8 is not working. On step 3 of the installation it tries to create the tables in the database, but nothing happens. If I click again to "Next" it says that the tables already exists, but in fact the DB is empty. A already installed FormTools on the same server still works.

Here the error message from the log:

AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: There is no active transaction in /formtools/global/code/Database.class.php:148\nStack trace:\n#0 /formtools/global/code/Database.class.php(148): PDO->rollBack()\n#1 /formtools/global/code/Installation.class.php(88): FormTools\\Database->rollbackTransaction()\n#2 /formtools/install/actions-installation.php(180): FormTools\\Installation::deleteTables()\n#3 {main}\n thrown in /formtools/global/code/Database.class.php on line 148', referer: formtools/install/

Hi man, unfortunately this github forum is terrible to find help. So I faced the same problem, I downgraded some software and libraries and works. So do it this:

In summary:

1) Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS 2) wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.12-1_all.deb 3) apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 467B942D3A79BD29 4) apt install -f mysql-client=8.0 mysql-community-server=8.0 mysql-server=8.0* 5) apt-get install php7.4 6) apt-install pdo-mysql

Reference: Formtools 3.1.11 Requirements: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS PHP 7.4 Mysql Ver 8.0.33 for Linux on x86_64

Is the most important: when you setting up mysql please, choose the authentication option to keep the compatibility (Use Legacy Authentication Method) with Mysql 5.x. Any question, let me know.

In general it is not good idea to downgrade to outdated versions. PHP 7.4 is no longer supported and for security reason it should not be used in a productive environment.

In my opinion it's a bug that the installation of formtools is not running in a up to date environment.

A dirty workaround is to set up the aplication in a testenvironment with outdated php and dump the database to the productive system. But it's still a bug...

I have problem instaling formtools on ubuntu 22.04 and php 8.1, apache and nginx. There is a way to create the tables on MariaDB command line.

HI.

I suggest you must do exactly that I had done. Installing ubuntu old version and Apache Php too, after in the next step updating everything. There are some packages that don't work with this recent version of Ubuntu and Apache (mod_php and mysql).

I didn't try MariaDB. This software is so terrible to install. I hope you get it!

Text me again if you get in trouble.
