      Never used SnipeIT. I’ll try it tonight if I finish my other task in time.

        Trying to install it now.

        I'm curious, am I right in assuming the Fedora 26 ISO from https://getfedora.org/en/server/download/ installed without selecting any extra options via installation = "minimal" install? I know with CentOS there is an ISO specific for a minimum install.

          Both DVD and netinstall install Fedora Server Edition by default.

            True, but are they "minimal" installs of the server edition, like CentOS? https://www.centos.org/download/

              No.

                  The software selection options are quite different for the Fedora 26 installer I'm using (such as no mention of a Minimal Install), but it seems that choosing the Fedora Custom Operating System with no addons achieves "minimal."

                  My SnipeIT install failed the first time. About to try it again with the aforementioned minimal.

                    You must have started form the DVD install and not the netinstall media.

                      I did. I ought to have followed my hunch that said netinstall media = minimal.

                        Netinstall = less than minimal. It has to download all the packages.

                          @eddiejennings Fedora Custom Operating System and Minimal installs the same amount of packages. The only difference I noticed is the kernel version.

                            I'll give it (and SnipeIT) a go tomorrow after work and concert.

                                Made a new pull request to their dev branch and it is already merged in.

                                So next time they push to master it will officially support Fedora.

                                  That pull request went live, so Snipe will now install on Fedora.

                                  Someone else also added a bit to open the firewall for HTTP to the CentOS 7 section, so I just made a new pull request to turn that into a subroutine and called it from both the CentOS 7 and Fedora sections.

                                    If you’re running KVM, virt-builder has a very minimal image and it already has the serial redirect in GRUB so you can just do virsh console vs using a VNC or SPICE client.

                                      Is this still the method of getting snipe on Fedora?

                                      How would you do upgrades when new releases come out?

                                        Yes. It is in the native repository now. So follow the official instructions, do not use my github.

                                        If you are on a new/current version you use

                                        sudo -u apache php /var/www/html/snipeit/upgrade.php

                                          I ran the install.sh script on Fedora 28 minimal install.

                                          As far as I know, that takes care of all dependencies, prerequisites, including cloning the SnipeIT git repository and .env configurations.

                                          After install, browsing to the page results in blank white page.

                                          For troubleshooting purposes, i put SELinux in permissive state and gave the whole /var/www/html/snipeit directory 0777 permissions, just to rule out SELinux and permissions.

                                          What else could it be?

                                            I think I've got it down now to install a clean setup.
                                            Just waiting to get my Hyper-V server running to do a production VM.

                                            Once I do I'll post the steps I did. Might not be the best method but it works 😁😁 well seems to.
