My #Pixelfed node is back up again. I had forgotten to reinstall the bcmath extension when I downgraded #PHP from 7.4 to 7.3 because #Nextcloud on the same machine isn't compatible, which prevented #Composer to pull the latest dependencies, which triggered a PHP Fatal Error. 😅

Ah, the joys of #selfhost without containers! I'm more and more tempted to look into #Docker, but I'm afraid of the learning curve before I get the same setup I have now. Also it probably would involve converting about 20 #Apache configuration files to #nginx which I'm not looking forward to either.

Does anyone have any pointers for either task, containerization and/or migration from Apache to nginx? #help

I knew I could define a minimum version of #PHP in the composer.json but only last week I learned to use the config.platform.php key to force #Composer to update dependencies against the same minimum version regardless of the local PHP runtime version.

Yesterday I shot my #Nextcloud instance by switching my server's #PHP version from 7.3 to 7.4, I learned I should have waited for version 18, don't be like me.

15 years after I started using #PHP, I finally made my first contribution to the php.net documentation pages. 🥳
