Install Oro Platform 3.1.3 on Centos 7.4.1708 - Nginx 1.12 - PHP 7.1

Posted About 5 years ago. Visible to the public.

Reference the official install guide Show archive.org snapshot .

We are using Symfony Framework v. 3.4 LTS in Oro Applications v.3.x.

Errors I Encountered and How I Fixed Them

Apache is Active

Check Port 80

[kiat@reporting /]$ sudo netstat -tulpn | grep :80
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      55851/httpd

Port 80 is used by Apache (as user httpd).

Disable Apache

[kiat@reporting /]$ sudo systemctl stop httpd
[kiat@reporting /]$ sudo systemctl disable httpd
[kiat@reporting /]$ sudo systemctl mask httpd
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/httpd.service to /dev/null.

Enable Nginx

[kiat@reporting /]$ sudo su
[root@reporting /]# systemctl start nginx
[root@reporting /]# systemctl enable nginx
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/nginx.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/nginx.service.

Install Missing PHP Extensions: mysqli & intl & zip

Sample Error Messages When Install with Composer

[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev
Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies from lock file
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - Installation request for oro/platform 3.1.3 -> satisfiable by oro/platform [3.1.3].
    - oro/platform 3.1.3 requires ext-zip * -> the requested PHP extension zip is missing from your system.
  Problem 2
    - oro/platform 3.1.3 requires ext-zip * -> the requested PHP extension zip is missing from your system.
    - oro/platform-serialised-fields 3.1.3 requires oro/platform ~3.1.1 -> satisfiable by oro/platform[3.1.3].
    - Installation request for oro/platform-serialised-fields 3.1.3 -> satisfiable by oro/platform-serialised-fields[3.1.3]

Note: instead of installing as user myself, kiat, it's better to install as user nginx:

$ sudo -u nginx composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev

$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php-mysqli php-intl php-pecl-zip
$ sudo systemctl restart php-fpm nginx
$ php -m

Search for Extension in remi-php71 Repository

For example to search for zip extension:

[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ yum search php71 | grep zip
php71-php-pecl-zip.x86_64 : A ZIP archive management extension

The search result shows that the complete name of the extension is php71-php-pecl-zip.x86_64. To install it in server running single version of PHP, remove the prefix php71:

$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php-pecl-zip #try this first for server running single PHP7.1 version
$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php71-php-pecl-zip # for server running multiple PHP versions

Install Oro Platform

File Permission Error

[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ php ./bin/console oro:install --env=prod --timeout=900

In Filesystem.php line 104:

  Failed to create "/usr/share/nginx/html/oroapp/var/cache/prod": mkdir(): Permission denied.

The above would run as user kiat.

Set Permissions, Owner, and Group

devs is the developer group:

[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ cd ..
[kiat@reporting html]$ sudo chown -R nginx:devs oroapp
[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ cd oroapp
[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ sudo find . -type f -exec chmod 0664 {} \;
[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ sudo find . -type d -exec chmod 0775 {} \;

And then install as user nginx:

[kiat@reporting oroapp]$ sudo -u nginx php ./bin/console oro:install --env=prod --timeout=900 

PHP Ran Out of Memory

There are many repositories by OroInc Show archive.org snapshot . The repository of interest is OroPlatform Show archive.org snapshot - business application management system that is a backbone of the OroCRM and OroCommerce, and not this platform - Main OroPlatform package with core functionality Show archive.org snapshot .

$ sudo -u nginx composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev
Deprecation warning: require.nesbot/Carbon is invalid, it should not contain uppercase characters. Please use nesbot/carbon instead. Make sure you fix this as Composer 2.0 will error.

Set 5GB Memory

Contrary to the memory_limit setting in the guide Show archive.org snapshot , which is 1024M, I needed to set it to 5120M:

$ sudo vim /etc/php.ini
$ # type "?memory_limit" to go to the param
$ # press Insert button on keyboard 
$ # change the value from 1024M to 5120M
$ # press Esc and type ":wq" to quit
$ sudo systemctl restart php-fpm
$ sudo -u nginx composer install --prefer-dist --no-dev

Deprecated Composer Package

The following are known issues:

Package phpoffice/phpexcel is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use phpoffice/phpspreadsheet instead.
Package guzzle/guzzle is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use guzzlehttp/guzzle instead.

See issue #821 Show archive.org snapshot and #20 Show archive.org snapshot .

Fatal Error: ClassNotFoundException: Attempted to load classOroTwigInspectorBundle

This is due to missing oro/twig-inspector package, which is only installed in dev environment. To fix this, just use composer to install without the option --no-dev:

[kiat@reporting misoro]$ sudo -u nginx composer install --prefer-dist

var/cache/prod is not writable

After complete installation and warming the cache with $ sudo -u nginx php ./bin/console oro:api:doc:cache:clear, and firing up the browser, the URL returned a blank page, but I expected the login page.

[kiat@reporting misoro]$ sudo setenforce 1 # turn on SELinux
[kiat@reporting misoro]$ sudo semanage permissive -a httpd_t # allow nginx to run in permissive mode temporary

Reference SELinux guide Show archive.org snapshot .

[kiat@reporting misoro]$ sudo chown -R root:devs .git
[kiat@reporting misoro]$ sudo find .git -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;

Update Local Master From Upstream

Reference How to Upgrade to a New Version Show archive.org snapshot

I created a new local branch upstream_master for synching with upstream remote repo.

[kiat@reporting misoro]$ git checkout upstream_master

M       bin/dist
M       var/import_export/.gitignore
Switched to branch 'upstream_master'
