Migration to 5.8.0: 'Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOMySql\Driver' not found about munkireport-php HOT 8 CLOSED

I don't think we want to keep supporting EOL versions of PHP, so I'm closing this issue. I think we need to update the docs so it's clear that PHP 7 is not supported anymore in MunkiReport 5.8

Is your server running php 8.x?

Thanks for your help. It is indeed running v7.4.3. Can this be the cause of the error?

from munkireport-php.

Yes, that is probably the reason. Composer will install a newer version of DBAL when PHP is upgraded

Make sure to run composer update after you update the PHP version on the server

I run composer update before running the migrations, so it should be up to date.

I just checked it installs doctrine/dbal 3.6.3 (latest version) even with my php 7 version, and with this version the migration failed.

According to https://stackoverflow.com/a/65075035 the downgrade fixes the error about the missing class (which it did for me). Looks like the class does not exist in dbal 3, see doctrine/dbal#4439? For me it looks like there might be an error using Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOMySql\Driver with dbal 3, but this is just a guess.

I will update to php 8 soon to be on the supported version – for now everything seems to work even with php 7 after the migration completed with the old dbal 2 version.

Aah probably it is because illumniate/database is incompatible with dbal 3 ... it installs v7.30.6 for me, probably the later versions are not compatible with php 7.

Seems to be only supported from v8.15.0 onwards, see https://github.com/laravel/framework/releases/tag/v8.15.0

Added Support DBAL v3.0 (laravel/framework#35236)
