Invoice ninja 5.7 is now 64bit only? [YES]

Self-Hosted | v5

Hi Friends,

Is invoice ninja now a 64 bit only application? When I attempt to install 5.7.57, even 5.7.59, I can’t run the upgrade DB process as composer says it has 64 bit dependencies. I’ve been running on a raspberry pi, but see this is now not going to be possible any longer.

** running upgrade
Composer detected issues in your platform:

Your Composer dependencies require a 64-bit build of PHP.

PHP Fatal error:  Composer detected issues in your platform: Your Composer dependencies require a 64-bit build of PHP. in /var/www/5.7.59/vendor/composer/platform_check.php on line 28

Is this the official stance?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi,

@david can you please advise?

It looks like a package we added recently

PHPOffice to support .xlsx exports has a sub dependency on GitHub - maennchen/ZipStream-PHP: 💾 PHP ZIP Streaming Library which has enforced a requirement of 64bit architecture

:frowning: Ah well… will have to look into re-installing my raspi. Last time I looked, they were going to ignore 64bit, but looks like they’ve changed that stance last year.
