New in v4.0-beta 3

This pre-release contains many improvements to API consistency from the previous alphas, in addition to some smaller bugfixes and UI improvements. See the complete changelog here.

Remember to run:

php composer.phar install --no-dev --prefer-source
php composer.phar dump-autoload
php artisan view:clear
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:clear
php artisan migrate

If it exists, you may delete the bootstrap/cache/compiled.php file. It is no longer used.

Important Note on Upgrading

THIS IS A BETA RELEASE. BACK UP YOUR APP KEY AND DATABASE FIRST.

If you are upgrading from a 3.x version of Snipe-IT, your app key was generated using the (deprecated) mcrypt library. Snipe-IT 4.x defaults to using an OpenSSL cipher instead of mcrypt - which will cause no issues if you are installing for the first time, but if you're upgrading, you may get a cipher error. If this happens, do the following:

  • open your .env file and add a new field called LEGACY_APP_KEY= and add your existing APP_KEY value there.
  • run php artisan config:cache to clear your config cache
  • run php artisan snipeit:recrypter
  • run php artisan key:generate to generate a new, non-mcrypt APP_KEY
  • clear your browser cookies

You MUST make sure you've backed up your original APP_KEY. The recrypter attempts to use mcrypt to decrypt any encrypted custom fields you have. If you do not run the recrypter and you change your APP_KEY, it will:

  • make any encrypted fields undecryptable
  • make your LDAP password undecryptable
  • void all browser sessions
