Unable to update to 10.4.1

Server

Hello all,

I am new to the owncloud and followed the pimylifeup.com article on creating your own cloud using owncloud. And if the tutorial it had me install version 10.2.1 but when I get into the web interface it tells me I need to update. So when I tried to by turning on maintenance mode from /var/www/owncloud I get this error. This version of ownCloud is not compatible with PHP 7.3, You are currently running PHP 7.3.14~deb10u1. So if the version of ownCloud I have installed doesn’t work with the version of PHP I got how do I update to 10.4.1? Any help would be much appreciated.

I got the same challenge updating PHP7.0 with the OCUpdate to 10.4.0 on raspbian. I also got PHP7.3 not running, but maybe I did something wrong. In my case I moved back to PHP 7.2 but need to compile the PHP memcache modules from source.

10.4.x should work fine with PHP 7.2 and 7.3. PHP 7.1 is still supported, but will be deprecated next.

I currently am using 10.2.1 because thats what the tutorial had me use. Am I stuck just re-imaging my sd card and starting over?

For these kind of questions the answer lies in the release notes:
https://doc.owncloud.com/server/admin_manual/release_notes.html#changes-in-10-3-0

As you see version 10.3.0 only started supporting PHP version 7.3. You should be able to update to version 10.3 before updating your PHP version and you should be fine, no reinstall/reimaging necessary.
