        Did you follow the instructions that I posted 17 days ago?

          Have anyone installed Snipe-IT by using option 1 and then upgraded successfully to v4?

          I did, but I was on gitter and received assistance directly from 2 of the developers there.

            The upgrade from v3 to v4 was the most painful part, since upgrading my upgrades to keep current have been very simple.

            #!/bin/bash
            #Should update Snipe-IT Automatically
            
            cd /var/www/html/snipeit
            git pull
            chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit/
            sudo -u apache php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source
            sudo -u apache php composer.phar dump-autoload
            sudo -u apache php artisan migrate
            sudo -u apache php artisan config:clear
            sudo -u apache php artisan config:cache

              @dustinb3403 Yes but got errors during it which confused me as to what method I used in the first place to install it.

                And did you proceed with the process of jumping onto gitter and asking for assistance there?

                    Why keep spinning your wheels? Just jump on gitter and speak with them directly.

                    @tiagom is one of the people who helped me to get upgraded.

                        Scratching my head trying to update from 3.6.3. @JaredBusch was super helpful in getting us up and running.

                        We are looking to move our VM to a new server so I installed a fresh version of 4.0.13 with the above method and its working great.

                        I am attempting to update the existing server so I can do a backup then restore it on the new server.

                        I have tried following above directions and can not do a git pull as I used the install.sh script originally. I tried doing an install.sh on top again and no luck. I tried a git clone on top as well and no change. I am still loading up to the 3.6.3 version. Gitter hasn't been super helpful so I am crossing my fingers here.

                          Do steps 1 -4 from the official guide - https://snipe-it.readme.io/docs/upgrading-to-v4. Step 3 is not required if no one else is using the app. Run the commands as the apache user ( sudo -u apache .........)

                          5- Follow along the first part from @JaredBusch guide to upgrade you install to use git

                          git clone https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it temp
                          rm -rf /var/www/html/snipeit/.git*
                          mv temp/.git* /var/www/html/snipeit/
                          rm -rf temp/
                          cd /var/www/html/snipeit/
                          git reset --hard origin/master
                          git pull --force
                          chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/snipeit/
                          

                          6- Run the following as apache user as @JaredBusch guide recommends.

                          sudo -u apache php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source
                          sudo -u apache php composer.phar dump-autoload
                          

                          7- Add APP_LOCALE=en to your .env file.

                          8- Double-check that your storage directory and all sub-directories are writable by apache user

                          9- Apply db migrations as the apache user

                          sudo -u apache php artisan migrate
                          

                          10- Open your .env file again and change your current APP_KEY to LEGACY_APP_KEY and add a new APP_KEY= to the file. So assuming both fields are the last ones of the file, your .env file should look like this with the changes:

                          ....
                          ....
                          LEGACY_APP_KEY=thisisyourpreviouskey
                          APP_KEY=
                          

                          Save your .env file with the changes and run

                          sudo -u apache php artisan key:generate
                          sudo -u apache php artisan config:clear
                          sudo -u apache php artisan snipeit:legacy-recrypt
                          

                          If you get a "Whoops" error when you try to login or refresh your Snipe-IT page, you probably forgot to clear your browser cookies. That error happens because we use a more encryption cipher to encrypt your data (including sessions), and clearing your browser should fix that.

                          11 - If you put the site on maintenance bring it up (sudo -u apache php artisan up)and go to your snipeit url.

                            @aaronstuder does anything replace this step in v4 or it's just no longer needed?

                              when heading to Step 3, Create Admin User, the server defaults to an http connection. Is there anyway to configure snipe with https before getting to the setup page for the first user?

                                I think you can modify the .env file to use https://your-ip (or installation name).

                                  In your .env config file, you would change APP_URL=http://snipeit.domain.com to APP_URL=https://snipeit.domain.com

                                    @romo Worked first time. The -u apache was what I was missing in my code.

                                      What is the best practice for restoring backups?

                                      It looks like exporting and importing CSV you lose some data. I am obviously not super familiar with linux but can probably figure out SSH if that is preferred method?

                                        Greetings of the Day!

                                        We installed snipe-it but the pre-flight check page is not appearing.

                                        The below command we used to install...

                                        setenforce 0
                                        mkdir -p /var/www/html; cd /var/www/html/
                                        wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snipe/snipe-it/master/install.sh && chmod 744 install.sh && ./install.sh

                                        0_1509522239425_Capture.PNG

                                        nano /var/log/httpd/snipeIT.error.log
                                        [Wed Nov 01 08:27:56.547689 2017] [php7:warn] [pid 9026] [client 192.168.173.175:49699] PHP Warning: require(/var/www/html/snipeit/vendor/composer/../psy/psysh/src/Psy/functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/snipeit/vendor/composer/autoload_real.php on line 66

                                          You don't need to run

                                          setenforce 0
                                          mkdir -p /var/www/html; cd /var/www/html/
                                          

                                          The script handles selinux setup on CentOS 7.

                                          I just tested it and successfully install on CentOS 7. Can you provide the output of /var/log/snipeit-install.log ?

                                            @robblehead You restore the database and then restore the files to the appropriate place. I don't have a backup in front of me but the file structure is preserved in the backup.

                                            If you're extracting on windows don't use the builtin unzip. You need to use 7zip or another file archiver.

                                            SnipeIT currently as far as i am aware does not have an automated restore backup feature.
