Issues with accounts class not found

[vishakha]

I’m setting up a local instance doing a clone from an existing instance. Ran into this problem
"Class ‘accounts’ not found"

It’s not able to instantiate the accounts class in Egw.php file
$this->accounts = new egw_accounts();

Not sure what’s the problem here
I’m using Ubuntu 19.04

When do you get that error?

The class is not part of the new API, it’s part of the old one, not installed anymore by default.

Which app are you trying to start, or what are you doing to trigger that?

I’m trying to get to the egroupware login page
I changed the way class is used
from
use accounts as egw_accounts
to
use EGroupware\Api\Accounts as egw_accounts;

and now I’m getting LDAP support unavailable issue

Please give more information about your installation.

Is it a new install or an update, which distribution, do you use package or docker-compose direct …

This can happen eg. if in an updated package installation the /usr/share/egroupware/phpgwapi directory is left over (eg. because you copied some files there). In that case run the following commands:

mv /usr/share/egroupware/phpgwapi /tmp
cd /etc/egroupware-docker
docker-compose restart

I’m using the old api version with phpgwapi. It’s an existing installation which I’m setting up on my local.
We are planning to upgrade very soon

Which EGroupware version is producing this error and how is the installation on that system made?
