Hi,
I just started the automatic Update to 4.16.0 from within the Matomo Backend.
I was greeted with the message that composer was not installed and how I could install it.
But when I tried php composer.phar install I was told:
Composer could not find a composer.json file in /var/www/html
To initialize a project, please create a composer.json file. See https://getcomposer.org/basic-usage
There was no composer.json file anywhere. So I looked into the GIT repo and found it. I manually created the file withe the content from GIT and now the installation/update worked fine.
I looked into the Matomo.zip downloaded from the Matomo Website, and there was no composer.json either.
What am I missing? Why is composer.json needed but not included?
