Testing SnipeIT on Fedora

hobbit666

@obsolesce it seemed to do that no matter what I set the permissions to

hobbit666

@obsolesce Gives me a oops something went wrong so guess it's alright.

hobbit666

@obsolesce Are you using MariaDB or MySQL? Also what versions.

I'm getting SQL Syntax errors on the pre-flight but looking on line i can see a post about version 10.2 causing issues.

hobbit666

Even the install script seem to be giving me jip as well.
SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '''' at line 1 (SQL: ALTER TABLE assets CHANGE _snipeit_mac_address _snipeit_mac_address_1 VARCHAR(191) DEFAULT ''NULL'')

MariaDB, latest repo version... 10.2.

Look at #6 here:

@obsolesce said in Testing SnipeIT on Fedora:

To install Snipe-IT on a fresh Fedora 28 minimal install:

Install Fedora Server 28 minimal from NetISO.

Okay to install the typical packages:
dnf install -y wget cockpit cockpit-storaged net-tools dnf-automatic

Download and run the Snipe-IT install script:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snipe/snipe-it/master/install.sh
chmod 744 install.sh
./install.sh

By default, the laravel log has bad permissions and needs to be fixed for Pre-Flight to work:
chmod 0755 /var/www/html/snipeit/storage/logs/laravel.log
chown apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit/storage/logs/Laravel.log

By default, you won't be able to send mail with SELinux, allow it to:
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1
setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail 1

Pre-flight will now show and pass. Click the next button, it will fail. Then run this command to fix the DB issue:
reference: https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it/issues/5242#issue-307531010
mysql -u root -p
ALTER TABLE snipeit.assets CHANGE `_snipeit_mac_address` `_snipeit_mac_address_1` varchar(191) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL NULL ;

Now go back to the Pre-flight page, and it should continue on as normal.

hobbit666

@obsolesce Yeah did your Alter table and i'm up and running and also imported my data from the old version.

Now to get it to work from behind a NGINX proxy

hobbit666

Now got issues adding machines, or doing anything add/edit wise. While in debug can see it all relating to the SQL stuff.

Guess its down to how i've exported and imported the database.

Yeah probably due to that. I can add/edit fine using the instructions I provided.

If oyu were not on the same version things will be bad.
because they update the database between versions for bugs or enhancemnts, etc.

hobbit666

@obsolesce @JaredBusch
Yeah doing a clean install then will use the Export to CSV and re-import method so i can map the columns.

Backups via the SnipeIT Admin web interface won't work unless php-zip is installed:
dnf install php-zip

Something still not right but home time and day off tomorrow
So will pick up Monday.

Quick question apart from changing the APP_URL and APP_TRUSTED_PROXIES, have you done anything else on the Snipe server to make it "work" under https? Like .htaccess or Virtual Host files?
