how to use console

[mentos77]

Hello,
I’m new with part-db and in last days added some components. Now it’s time to backup database data.
So, I would like to use console command php bin/console partdb:backup. But all console commands didn’t work, I get always Could not open input file: bin/console.
So, my maybe stupid question how to do this? I installed part-db with helper-script on my proxmox server. No matter what console command I enter, I always get the same message.
Thank you

Hi,
I think this is not a partdb issue. As mentioned in the Part-DB Documentation https://docs.part-db.de/installation/proxmox.html these Proxmox scripts are not supported by Part-DB developers. So maybe go to https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/discussions and ask there. But out of curiosity I've tried it myself on my Proxmox server and had the same problem. Adding "sudo" didn't help, as I was logged in as root on the VM anyways. Also using app/console didn't work and the helper script uses php bin/console itself, so it should be available in the VM/LXC Container:

export COMPOSER_ALLOW_SUPERUSER=1
$STD composer install --no-dev -o --no-interaction
$STD yarn install
$STD yarn build
$STD php bin/console cache:clear
php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate -n > ~/database-migration-output

But please go to https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/discussions and ask the developer there.

Hello, thanks for your answer. I started a discussion there
community-scripts/ProxmoxVE#2437 (comment)
Meanwhile I will install a direct installation on my server so that I have everything "in my hands".
