Magento2: Setup Script not loaded

Question

I've been banging my head for a few hours now. I have setup a small Magento 2 module. It is enabled everything is working except the Setup scripts never run. Actually from my diagnosis right now, they aren't even required in the setup:upgrade process.

If it could be of any help here are the module configuration files:

registration.php:

<?php
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
 \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
 'Wizbusiness_CustomerSubscriptions',
 __DIR__
);

etc/module.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
 <module name="Wizbusiness_CustomerSubscriptions" setup_version="0.0.9" />
</config>

Setup/InstallData.php:

<?php
namespace Wizbusiness\CustomerSubscriptions\Setup;
use Magento\Framework\Module\Setup\Migration;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallDataInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleDataSetupInterface;
class InstallData implements InstallDataInterface
{
 public function install(ModuleDataSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context)
 {
 $setup->startSetup();
 $customerSetup = $this->customerSetupFactory->create(['setup' => $setup]);
 /** @var CustomerSetup $customerSetup */
 $customerSetup->addAttribute(
 Customer::ENTITY,
 'subscribedtags',
 [
 'type' => 'text',
 'input' => 'multiselect',
 'backend' => 'Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\Backend\ArrayBackend',
 'global' => \Magento\Catalog\Model\Resource\Eav\Attribute::SCOPE_GLOBAL,
 'label' => 'Subscribed Tags',
 'required' => 0,
 'system' => 0, // <-- important, otherwise values aren't saved.
 // @see Magento\Customer\Model\Metadata\CustomerMetadata::getCustomAttributesMetadata()
 'position' => 100,
 'filterable' => true,
 'option' => [ 'values' => ['Test', 'Test2', 'Test3' ] ]
 ]
 );
 $used_in_forms=array();
 $used_in_forms[]="adminhtml_customer";
 $used_in_forms[]="checkout_register";
 $used_in_forms[]="customer_account_create";
 $used_in_forms[]="customer_account_edit";
 $used_in_forms[]="adminhtml_checkout";
 $customerSetup->getEavConfig()->getAttribute('customer', 'subscribedtags')
 ->setData('used_in_forms', [$used_in_forms])
 ->setData("is_used_for_customer_segment", true)
 ->setData("is_user_defined", 1)
 ->save();
 $setup->endSetup();
 }
}

Also a smaller test in Setup/Recurring.php:

<?php
namespace Wizbusiness\CustomerSubscriptions\Setup;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\InstallSchemaInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\SchemaSetupInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Setup\ModuleContextInterface;
class Recurring implements InstallSchemaInterface {
 protected $logger;
 public function __construct(
 \Psr\Log\LoggerInterface $loggerInterface
 ) {
 $this->logger = $loggerInterface;
 }
 public function install( SchemaSetupInterface $setup, ModuleContextInterface $context ) {
 touch("<path here>/recurring.txt");
 $this->logger->debug('This is running');
 }
}

If anybody knows what's up, please help me!

• Vicent Nguyen: Let's see this: mageplaza.com/magento-2-module-development/…, do not do it yourself. I think you should coppy the names, paths, do not write by hand
• bfontaine: Just in case it helps someone: my issue was that I was using class InstallSchema in InstallData.php instead of class InstallData.

Answer 1

Install scripts only run when the module is initially installed. To have it run again, you need to remove that module's row from the setup_module table with a query like below:

DELETE FROM setup_module WHERE module=Module_Name

• Michaël St-Georges: Maked as the answer even tough it wasn't the solution to my problem as this is the most common trouble seen.

Answer 2

Same problem, I found the problem will appear when the module name have two or more capital letters, like Vendor\CapitalModule. I had set the folder name capitalization, namespace and class name is right too, but the Setup scripts still never run. Strange problem OTZ

I solved the problem by changing the module name to only one capital letter, like changing Vendor\CapitalModule to Vendor\Capitalmodule, then the Setup InstallSchema scripts will run.

Answer 3

I've finally found a solution. I renamed the module folder to match it's name(capitalization included) and now the scripts are running as they should.

• Ramon Vicente: For me, this has the solution.

Answer 4

i found that i was missing setup_version in etc/module.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
<module name="Name_ModuleName" setup_version="0.0.1">
</module>

Answer 5

I am having the same issue in my custom module. The issue was not the updated namespace of InstallSchema class.

I updated and it works

namespace Customvendorname\CustomModuleName\Setup;
