A while back we added composer 2 in a separate path so that users could keep using composer 1 for backwards compatibility.
app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ which composer /usr/local/bin/composer app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ which composer2 /usr/local/bin/composer2
Recently we’ve had some users experience issues because software like Shopware 6 which requires composer 2 couldn’t find this alternative composer path. Some of their scripts depend on composer 2 being the system default composer. As of now we’ll provide composer 2 as the default composer version on new Hypernodes and we’ve made setting the system composer version to 1 or 2 configurable. All existing nodes will keep composer 1 as their /usr/local/bin/composer unless otherwise configured.
To switch between composer versions you can use the hypernode-api or the hypernode-systemctl command-line tool:
app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ ls -lah /usr/local/bin/composer lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 5 16:08 /usr/local/bin/composer -> composer1 app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ ls -lah /usr/local/bin/composer* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 5 16:08 /usr/local/bin/composer -> composer1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2.0M Jan 5 16:09 /usr/local/bin/composer1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2.3M Jan 5 16:09 /usr/local/bin/composer2 app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ hypernode-systemctl settings composer_version 2.x Operation was successful and is being processed.

And to switch back to composer 1:
app@levka6-appname-magweb-cmbl:~$ hypernode-systemctl settings composer_version 1.x Operation was successful and is being processed. Please allow a few minutes for the settings to be applied. Run 'livelog' to see the progress.
