Upgrade from PHP version 7

[MerlinB]

Hello. After updating, I am stuck with This version of Nextcloud is not compatible with PHP>=8.2.. I determined that my installed Nextcloud is only compatible with PHP version 7.x. To resolve this I followed the guide at https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/manual-upgrade.md. Unfortunately, there exist no docker images for PHP versions below 8 that I could find to complete the update as described in step 6. Is there a way out of this?

Hi, you should be able to use e.g. the 8.1 tag

Sorry, I was mistaken, it needs PHP 8.0, not PHP 7.

Still, I did change the container to nextcloud/aio-nextcloud:php8.0-latest in /tmp/nextcloud-aio-nextcloud and ran it, as explained in the instructions. In the following container logs I still get App "Nextcloud All-in-One" cannot be installed because it is not compatible with this version of the server..

Here is the content of versioncheck.php:

// Show warning if a PHP version below 7.4 is used,
if (PHP_VERSION_ID < 70400) {
	http_response_code(500);
	echo 'This version of Nextcloud requires at least PHP 7.4<br/>';
	echo 'You are currently running ' . PHP_VERSION . '. Please update your PHP version.';
	exit(1);
}

// Show warning if >= PHP 8.2 is used as Nextcloud is not compatible with >= PHP 8.2 for now
if (PHP_VERSION_ID >= 80200) {
	http_response_code(500);
	echo 'This version of Nextcloud is not compatible with PHP>=8.2.<br/>';
	echo 'You are currently running ' . PHP_VERSION . '.';
	exit(1);
}

I figured out that while nextcloud/aio-nextcloud:php8.0-latest and nextcloud/aio-nextcloud:latest did not work, nextcloud/aio-nextcloud:php8.1-latest did work.
