My problem is:
Update from 4.4.12 as per documentation How to update Mautic — Mautic Documentation 0.1 documentation does not work and shows the following messages on the command line:

composer update --with-all-dependencies

    but it does not match the constraint.
  Problem 7
    - Root composer.json requires mautic/core-lib 5.1.0 -> satisfiable by mautic/core-lib[5.1.0].
    - mautic/core-lib 5.1.0 requires php ~8.0 -> your php version (7.4.33) does not satisfy that requirement.
  Problem 8
    - mautic/core-lib 5.1.0 requires php ~8.0 -> your php version (7.4.33) does not satisfy that requirement.
    - mautic/theme-vibrant 5.1.0 requires mautic/core-lib ^5.0 -> satisfiable by mautic/core-lib[5.1.0].
    - Root composer.json requires mautic/theme-vibrant 5.1.0 -> satisfiable by mautic/theme-vibrant[5.1.0].

Use the option --with-all-dependencies (-W) to allow upgrades, downgrades and removals for packages 
currently locked to specific versions.

Strangely, the composer command shows I run PHP 7.4.33 which is not correct. I run Mautic with PHP 8.0.30. That is what Mautic even shows in the System Info Menu.

These errors are showing in the log:

No log entries, not even in PHP error log.

Steps I have tried to fix the problem:

Only tried what is mentioned in the documentation. Unfortunately, the documentation does not state anything about updating from 4.4.12 to 5.1.0.

What do I need to do to update from 4.4.12 to 5.1.0?
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Personally, I’m not sold on Mautic 5 yet. What’s the draw for you @stemautic88 ?

@entrepositive Good question. Curiosity mostly. I run Mautic on several websites and wanted to try 5.1.0 with the one that has the lowest traffic. But as it seems, the update process from 4 to 5 is not yet very well documented. At least, I wasn’t able to figure out what to do. I’m not a developer, just a tech-savvy user. Though, I’m pleased when things don’t get too complicated. :wink:

But I’m fine to wait until there is a clear path to update from 4.4.12 to 5.x.
