That is useless, I can't pass commands to it.

Hello,

i have some problems with composer in an chrootet environment.

I'm using this:

OS: ‪Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS‬
Produkt: Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 Update Nr. 71 , zuletzt aktualisiert: 26. Okt. 2019 00:49:08

It's not possible, to make composer available for a chroot user.

chroot /var/www/vhosts/chroot composer
/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (de_DE.utf8)

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Phar' not found in /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar:23
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
thrown in /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar on line 23

Can somebody tell me, what's wrong?

No extension could possibly cover all abilities of composer in my opinion. I would still prefer it as a CLI module that's why I personally add it to chroot in all my servers normally. However a lot of libraries are needed to make it work correctly in CLI context.

An extension is great, but there should be an option to use composer from cli as most of the developers would prefer to use it in a traditional way (from cli).

A possible solution, it works for me. The timezone and the path for php.ini and the php extensions directory maybe different:

wget https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/115005093613/update_chroot.tar.gz
tar -xvzf update_chroot.tar.gz
rm update_chroot.tar.gz
cp /etc/ld.so.conf* /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc
./update_chroot.sh --add ldconfig
./update_chroot.sh --add ldconfig.real
./update_chroot.sh --add env
./update_chroot.sh --add php
mkdir /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/share
cp -a /usr/share/zoneinfo /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/share
for i in /usr/lib/php5/20131226/*.so ; do ./update_chroot.sh --add $i ; done
cp -a /etc/php5/cli/php.ini /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc
sed -i.bkp 's/;date.timezone =/date.timezone = Europe\/Budapest/' /var/www/vhosts/chroot/etc/php.ini
mkdir /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/lib/plesk-9.0
cp -a /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/composer.phar /var/www/vhosts/chroot/usr/lib/plesk-9.0/
./update_chroot.sh --add composer
./update_chroot.sh --apply all
chroot /var/www/vhosts/chroot composer

Composer in chroot is most important. Most popular webmailer Roundcube needs composer for installing plugins...

All other server solutions habe no problem with copmposer only plesk has :( :(

Another example is additional commands relating to deploy with the composer:
php[env] artisan db:seed --class=delete_tables
php[env] artisan migrate

You've created a beutifull tool with you applications composer.json scan ;)

I think this topic is already done in Plesk 12.5 or?

Hi all,
reading the manual I have found here:
http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/Doc/it-IT/online/plesk-customer-guide/index.htm?fileName=74969.htm

it seems not to be possible to run composer in non-chroot enviroments. But carefully reading this post:

https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/2867

And copying the necessary files needed by php to run (namely, php modules like phar and others), it is possible to have it running. So, in my opinion, it is always best to do some investigations directly before asking support that could come very long after you have asked.

Hi plesk/parallels/odin staff, do you have a timeline for this feature?

It is really important to us to have PHP Composer in Chroot Env :)

composer in chroot is very important

Composer functionality in chroot vhost would be really nice

@AK
we are a hosting company and would appreciate the combination of the composer with chrooted environments, too.
