installing it on recent Linux is another thing, you need php 7.0 to run it so you either install it on old Linux system or use something like sury.org repositories to install older php version in newer Linux version

Hi can you be more specific in details what is the requirements do you have any automated install script because i try so many install scripts with a felure .
Thanks i apriciate this

Running automated scripts is wrong, you trust the creator of the script to do thing on your system.

I can give some guidance, what do you prefer, Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 13?

Following is a simple guide that works for plain Debian 13. apache2 / php should not have been installed, if they have remove everything to start clean

First setup sury.org repo

apt update
apt -y install lsb-release ca-certificates curl
curl -sSLo /tmp/debsuryorg-archive-keyring.deb https://packages.sury.org/debsuryorg-archive-keyring.deb
dpkg -i /tmp/debsuryorg-archive-keyring.deb
sh -c 'echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/debsuryorg-archive-keyring.gpg] https://packages.sury.org/php/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list'
apt update

Then setup nodejs 20

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_20.x | bash -

Then do the rest

apt install apache2 php7.0 memcached ntpsec mariadb-server mariadb-client
apt install php-pear php7.0-xml unzip
pear channel-discover pear.phing.info
pear install -Z phing/phing-2.16.1
change to /var/www/html and unzip minista-5.6.10.zip
go to stalker_portal/deploy and patch build.xml with this patch like this:
patch -p 0 < patch_build_xml_for_composer2_and_new_debian.patch
Then go to stalker_portal folder and patch for nodejs 20 (npm 10.8.2) like this:
patch -p 0 < patch_support_nodejs20.patch
go to /etc/mysql/conf.d and create file strict_mode.cnf with content
[mysqld]
sql_mode=""
and do systemctl restart mariadb
then go to deploy directory and run phing

At this point you should have a correct ministra 5.6.10 installation, you still need to configure apache2/nginx etc as shown in Infomir's old installation guide for Ubuntu 16.04

links for the two patches
a. patch_build_xml_for_composer2_and_new_debian.patch

https://pastebin.com/raw/67mFrWLv

b. patch_support_nodejs20.patch

https://pastebin.com/raw/0KXLRFE1

the nodejs patch is only needed if you care about smart-launcher etc

And some explanations what the patches do:
a. for build.xml, we upgrade composer to 2.2.21 (1.x is no longer working) and we also remove the composer.lock file in order to allow composer to work with 2.x dependencies. We also change the version checking to match debian versions. composer 2.x does'nt like running as root so when we run dump-autoload we prepend COMPOSER_ALLOW_SUPERUSER=1 to avoid interaction. Also composer 2.x does not understand --suggest so we removed it. we also remove hirak/prestissimo dependency since it is not needed in composer 2.x. Finally we update the apt-get command to match sury.org and nodejs repos

b. for nodejs 20, we just need to patch ministra to not complain for version 10.8.2 and also set the registry to https (http is deprecated and will stop working anytime soon if it hasn't already stopped). Finally we make dependencies work like old nodejs by adding: npm config set install-strategy nested

That's all

Finally if this works for you and you make money out of it, please make a donation to deb.sury.org in order to continue providing this excellent service.

not working

not working

of course it works because I tested it step by step before posting. You missed something or did something wrong.

Where does it fail for you? In phing? what is the output?
