Thanks! We have too many things that we can't take big risks on so we keep to the Enterprise grade type of stuff. We are still waiting on several big vendors to properly adopt to RHEL 7 before we jump ship. I am /really/ hoping to stick it out on RHEL 6 till at least the end of the year with a migration next year, but more and more it is getting challenging to do so. It is kinda funny. Two years ago I led the crusade to get rid of RHEL 4 and last year I started the hard push to migrate off of RHEL 5. I just wanted a year break before starting the push to get off RHEL 6. :-D ~Stack~ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ User mailing list User@owncloud.org http://mailman.owncloud.org/mailman/listinfo/user

To be honest, if you look at my history on this forum you will see a recent post where I too got blindsided by this very thing. The Software Collections route I went to was something new to me, but it ended up not being too bad. Now I have httpd24 and php55 running on Scientific Linux in production with owncloud 8. The post shouldn't be too hard to find, but if you need help let me know. I will be happy to do what I can. I would think that E in RHEL means that the packager should be careful about screwing up your users. Trust me. This is one of my biggest pet-peeves. Especially with the absurd notion recently of pushing bleeding-edge packages that haven't hit a one year birthday yet into Enterprise grade OS and LTS support. This really frightens me. But I would also expect that an admin who joins me in the fight for keeping that E of highest importance would break a dev box...not a production one... ~Stack~ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ User mailing list User@owncloud.org http://mailman.owncloud.org/mailman/listinfo/user

Hi Matěj, On 06.03.2015 15:56, Matěj Cepl wrote: Given the complete ineptude of the whoever packages owncloud on the OpenSUSE builder for RHEL-6 I have build my own package to be included into EPEL-6 proper. It is just owncloud7, but that seems to work correctly with php53 which is what we have on RHEL-6. While I appreciate your efforts, I would like to remind you of our Code of Conduct (https://owncloud.org/community/code-of-conduct/). I think you're around Open Source projects long enough to know that insulting people is, for a good reason, frowned upon outside the realm of LKML. That said, I think whoever packages ownCloud on OBS would have appreciated a hint. A patch like this should be easy enough to integrate, but not obvious to someone who doesn't know all distributions and their RPM extensions by heart. So if the purpose of thise post was to be helpful, rather than just bashing OBS, please consider contributing to our packages next to the Koji ones.

Couple of notes on idea staying with php54 from the Software Collections (official or not): * Requires: php54 (Software Collections are all based around the idea that two versions of packages should stay on the system, so its PHP package will never provide plain php) * You have to remind your users, that Apache cannot load two versions of mod_php at once, so if they want to have other packages depending on the system PHP53 they must somehow reconfigure them (probably using cgit?). I don't know about ngnix, but I guess the situation will be similar. Lovely to do it on the production system! There are certainly other disasters looming on the horizon.
