I have nextcloud client in TW. During the latest zypper dup command I have messages that warn me of the misfit of php packages. What do you suggest to do? Deleting nextcloud is not an option. The other possibilities offered are keeping the old apache_mod_php7, or break nextcloud package by disregarding some dependencies.

better send the detailed error you encountered during upgrade...

Thanks for the tip!

I get:

so choose option (Solution) 2 and wait until the package requirements are available to complete updating nextcloud. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

In addition to other suggestions that have already been made (use option 2, Luke :) here's another couple of possibilities: (a) I don't use nextcloud and know very little about PHP but I do know it is possible to have more than one version of PHP on a machine. So reconfigure nextcloud to explicitly use a local/private copy of the existing PHP and then upgrade the system PHP. (b) run nextcloud in a container/VM I don't know whether either of these possibilities are attractive or even possible, but better suggested than not. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

So reconfigure nextcloud to explicitly use a local/private copy of the existing PHP and then upgrade the system PHP. There is a PHP 7.3 repository. Unfortunately it's only available for openSUSE Leap 15.0 and 15.1:

https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/php:/php73/ May be someone should ask the repository owner, if the repository can be configured for Tumbleweed. Probably Nextcloud is not the only PHP software in openSUSE Tumbleweed which has problems with PHP 7.4. Greetings, Björn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

But would installing from a repository allow it to operate in parallel to the main system installation of 7.4, which may well be wanted by other things? It depends. nextcloud-17.0.1-87.1.noarch for instance has a dependency to mod_php_any >= 7.0.0 and mod_php_any < 7.4.0. PHP 7.3 would match

Dave Howorth wrote: this. Other PHP packages may have other dependencies. If at least one PHP package depends on PHP >= 7.4.0, then PHP 7.3 will not work without dependency errors. Of course you can not mix PHP package versions on openSUSE. If you downgrade to PHP 7.3, all PHP 7.4 packages must be downgraded. # rpm -q nextcloud -R | grep php mod_php_any >= 7.0.0 mod_php_any < 7.4.0 php-bz2 php-ctype php-curl php-dom php-fileinfo php-ftp php-gd php-iconv php-intl php-json php-ldap php-mbstring php-mysql php-openssl php-pear php-posix php-xmlreader php-xmlwriter php-zip php-zlib Personally I have a "fake" mod_php7 package, because I use php7-fpm and this is incompatible with mod_php7. Installing "fake" mod_php7 packages may be an option to solve dependency problems. I installed the package manually like this: # zypper install --download-only apache2-mod_php7 # rpm -Uvh --justdb /var/cache/zypp/packages/repo-oss/x86_64/apache2-mod_php7-7.4.0-1.1.x86_64.rpm --nodeps Greetings, Björn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I know nothing about rpm either! :) From the Apache/PHP/Mod_PHP perspective you can not have two active PHP versions. But two PHP versions can run in one Apache instance using PHP FPM. But configuring PHP FPM is a bit time consuming if you begin with this.

From the RPM perspective you can not have PHP 7.3 and PHP 7.4 packages installed together because both PHP versions have the same names. e.g. php7, php7-intl can be php7-7.3, php7-intl-7.3 or php7-7.4, php7-intl-7.4 etc.

All together I would recommend you to use PHP 7.3 (and only PHP 7.3) with Mod_PHP if Apache/PHP 7.3/Mod_PHP/Nextcloud is your setup. The RPM hack is only needed, if a PHP package stricktly requires PHP 7.4 - in fact it will run on PHP 7.3 too. The main problem is currently to get PHP 7.3 packages for TW. May be you find the PHP 7.3 packages in old Tumbleweed snapshots. Do you know the "tumbleweed" command to manage TW snapshots? I would try to download PHP 7.3 RPM packages directly, otherwise the whole TW system will stick on a snapshot. Later you can lock the PHP 7.3 packages with YaST or Zypper.
