That didn’t work, but I have succefully solved it.

Here is how:

1. Copy folder “app” from “vendor\robmorgan\phinx” to “vendor\bin”

2. Copy folder “src” from “vendor\robmorgan\phinx” to “vendor\bin\app”

3. In folder “vendor\bin” using Notepad edit file “phinx”:  
change line  
$app = require **DIR**. ‘/…/app/phinx.php’;

4. In folder “vendor\bin\app” using Notepad edit file “phinx.php”:  
change line  
$autoloader = require **DIR**. ‘/…/src/composer\_autoloader.php’;

5. Run this command: php vendor\bin\phinx migrate -c phinx.php

Couple of seconds later, migration is complete and I can login to my Xibo.

Now Xibo 2.0.0 is running with PHP 7.3 🙂
