Any help gratefully received.

Hi,

It looks like you may have downloaded the zip from GitHub without running composer install.

Thanks. I thought I had downloaded it from https://download.invoiceninja.com/ - is this correct? Composer isn’t available to me on my shared hosting platform so I need the complete zip file.

Have tried re-downloading from the above link and reinstalling. Same errors persist.

5

Yes, that should be the correct file to download.

Sorry, not sure. Maybe try setting up a new install and copying over the DB and .env file?

Schoolboy error: I was allowing the file to unzip into a folder “ninja” within the root directory rather than unzipping and moving across. All fixed now.

I’m trying to understand from the docs and it’s not quite clear: Does version 5 require composer or can it still be installed from the zip file in the same way as v4?

7

v5 is the same as v4 in this regard, you can either use the zip (which has the vendor files) or composer.
