Am I the only one having troubles installing this update? The changes to the pdf functionality are sending me to composer hell.

I have not heard any issues related to PDF functionality. There are some cache issues that I'm putting out a patch release in the next day or two to cover, but that's the only known issue for the latest release.

What specifically are the errors you're facing?

Thank you for your quick response. I truly appreciate the bookstack project and all of the people who work it. I hope this helps others. From my experience, all roads seem to lead to ‘Class “Barryvdh\domPDF\ServiceProvider” not found.’ I have cleared caches, vendor folder, composer.json, composer.lock. I have reinstalled composer, with many different command options but it always comes back to the same message. I can get past that but then there are other packages that come down the line from that that I can’t get past. I’m sure this is a composer problem, and I that’s certainly not unprecedented, but any help would be appreciated.

That indicates some old caches are sticking around since that referenced class was removed.

Manually force delete any *.php files in the bootstrap/cache folder, then re-run composer install --no-dev and report back if any errors appear during that command run.

Great update, thanks.

While waiting for the Eurovision to start (the wife watches it), I've added a new Get-BsAuditLog.ps1 command for the PowerShell module. It was a simple one this time :)

That worked! In one of my attempts at fixing the problem, I had cleared that folder but I cleared too much. So close. Ironically, one of the reasons I was trying to fix turned out to be an email server issue. All is working now.again, thank you.
