v4.0-alpha Released

about 7 years ago by snipe

❗️

PHP > 5.5.9 or greater is REQUIRED

For a full list of requirements for version 4.0, please see the v4 documentation.

The long-awaited alpha is out! We're still kicking the tires on this release, as it's a pretty big one, but we'd love the more adventurous of you to install/upgrade and report back. We obviously test new installs and upgrades before releasing, but our users use Snipe-IT in such weird and wonderful ways, on all kinds of different systems, so we can definitely use some help there.

🚧

THIS IS ALPHA SOFTWARE - ONLY INSTALL/UPGRADE ON TEST ENVIRONMENTS

This software is pre-release, which means there are likely to be bugs our testing didn't catch. While we always try to make sure any database/system changes are reversible, this should NOT be installed on a production system.

After switching to the develop branch (or downloading and overwriting your old install files), remember to run:

php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source
php artisan config:clear
php composer.phar dump-autoload
php artisan migrate
php artisan view:clear

You will ALSO need to run:

php artisan passport:install

AFTER you've run the previous upgrading commands above.
