XF 2.3 "CommunityHive" causing problems with cronjobs.

[DarkGizmo]

I tried uninstalling that "Community Hive" add-on because it started giving me server errors randomly, when I went to uninstall and delete it, I got this error:


I was on version 1.0.2 if that means anything. Now i'm stuck with these errors popping up, the files were deleted and i'm not sure how to fix it. I can't even remember my info to log into Community Hive and just want this fixed and removed from my forums.

Any help is appreciated.

Ensure you are running 2.2.16 Patch 2.

Security Fix​

Today we are advising all customers running XenForo that a potential security vulnerability has been identified. All affected customers should either upgrade to XenForo 2.1.15 or XenForo 2.2.16.

If you are a XenForo Cloud customer, a fix has been rolled out automatically, and no further action is required to address this issue.

If you are running a pre-release version of XenForo 2.3, you should follow the instructions in the announcement thread for the XenForo 2.3.0 Release Candidate 1 release.

The issue relates to a potential cross-site request forgery and code...

I should be, I upgraded via admin panel yesterday.

I'm getting server errors about the "Widget" from CommunityHive, it won't let me 'complete' the cronjob due to the error i posted and I can't seem to fully uninstall it because of this. Please help. I don't have a recent-ish backup of my data and really don't want to lose anything :-( Community Hive also seems to be a dead project so I just want to get it removed safely and move on.

This is the server error log i keep getting from it:

I tried re-installing, the only time these errors go away is if I disable add-ons completely, which isn't ideal for me at all! Please help!

I wouldn't recommend this generally, but in a pinch:

1. Enable debug mode
2. Replace the src/XF.php file (and only that file) with the XF 2.2.15 version
3. Uninstall the Community Hive add-on (ensuring its files are still in place first)
4. Restore the src/XF.php file to the XF 2.2.16 Patch 2 version
5. Disable debug mode

Ultimately the issue is the add-on violates our expected directory/class layout, and were it maintained then the add-on should be fixed.

I wouldn't recommend this generally, but in a pinch:

1. Enable debug mode
2. Replace the src/XF.php file (and only that file) with the XF 2.2.14 version
3. Uninstall the Community Hive add-on (ensuring its files are still in place first)
4. Restore the src/XF.php file to the XF 2.2.16 Patch 2 version
5. Disable debug mode

Ultimately the issue is the add-on violates our expected directory/class layout, and were it maintained then the add-on should be fixed.

I think i sorted it, I deleted the XF_Jobs table contents and it seems to have gone away.

I wouldn’t recommend that as it will leave orphaned data that could be troublesome in the future. There are also a couple of jobs which should always be in that table, otherwise some things like cron entries will not run as expected. In case you removed all of them, you may get the necessary ones back by rebuilding the master data.

I'll rebuild master data again, how do I do that? I forgot? I did it once before.....

Go to your install url https://yoursiteurl/install/, login and click "Rebuild Master Data".
