Call `occ upgrade` with same php arguments as `updater.phar` is called?

[jneuhauser]

I'm calling the updater with: /usr/bin/php8.1 --define apc.enable_cli=1 /var/www/nextcloud/updater/updater.phar --no-interaction

But while doint the full update, the command occ upgrade fails with: OCP\HintException: [0]: Memcache \OC\Memcache\APCu not available for local cache (Is the matching PHP module installed and enabled?)

Is it possible that updater.phar calls occ upgrade also with --define apc.enable_cli=1?

Good catch. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't come up before. Maybe most people just workaround it. 🤔

We call occ in two places:

updater/lib/UpdateCommand.php

Line 312 in aac9e4b

system(PHP_BINARY . ' ./occ upgrade -v', $returnValue);

updater/lib/UpdateCommand.php

Line 330 in aac9e4b

system(PHP_BINARY . ' ./occ maintenance:mode --off', $returnValueMaintenanceMode);

I see no reason we can't specify --define apc.enable_cli= by default when calling occ from the updater since it's the recommended default (and it shouldn't hurt to specify it even if the local admin has, say, already enabled it in their php.ini).

https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/maintenance/update.html?highlight=enable_cli#using-the-command-line-based-updater

PRs are welcome if you want to try. :-)

P.S. It's too bad apc.enable_cli is only PHP_INI_SYSTEM changeable so we're not allowed to set it via ini_set() ourselves in occ & updater.
