XF 2.2 suddenly getting: Accessed unknown getter 'prefix_id' on XF:ConversationMaster[29] whenever someone starts or replies to a conversation?!

[zoldos]

I disabled all my mods that involve conversations, as well as a few others (including Zodiac signs, shown below). But I keep getting this, and slightly varied server errors (depending on which mod is disabled) whenever a member starts or replies to a conversation. Very strange! I'm stumped. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Here is the exact error:

InvalidArgumentException: Accessed unknown getter 'prefix_id' on XF:ConversationMaster[28] src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php:213

Looks like it could be related to a third party add-on - ZodiacSigns.

I thought that, too. So I disabled that mod, and now I get:

The bad news is.. I've had similar issues in the past where simply disabling the add-on was not enough. I actually had to totally remove it.

 

[Paul B]

A customisation you have made/installed is to blame.
It could be an add-on, style, modified template, custom nav tab, widget, etc.

Try disabling all add-ons and rebuilding the master data.
If the problem is resolved, enable add-ons one at a time until it returns.

Do you remember what add-ons? I just started noticing this recently. But I don't recall changing any add-ons the past few weeks.

 

[zoldos]

@Brogan Will I lose any customizations to phrases and templates?

 

[TPerry]

Over the decade.. it has varied... it depended on how well they were coded.
Have you made any template changes?

Yes, a few. My template is a bit dated. There have been 4 or 5 updates, but I haven't had a chance to renew for the latest version....

Odds are this is going to be your issue.
look at the ones dealing with conversations as a priority.

 

[Paul B]

There's no issue with running an older version, as long as any third party styles and add-ons are compatible with said version.

And I can't believe I still have to post this, considering how many times it has been asked, but no, rebuilding master data does not affect your modified templates or phrases.

 

[Max Taxable]

What changed? You say you're "suddenly getting" these errors. Could your host have changed something?

 

[TPerry]

Errr.... it's pretty much standard if you want to use a newer version of XF, you need to use a compatible version of the style. If you can't do both, then don't do either. It's the very nature of the beast.

 

[Paul B]

Could your host have changed something?

It's not a hosting issue.

Okay, thanks! All plugins are disabled, and I'm still getting the error. I will try a master rebuild.

 

[zoldos]

Master rebuild complete, all plugins disabled. I get:

*Update: Now getting the error when just viewing a conversation (before, it was only when sending one)!

 

[TPerry]

Does this happen in a default style?

 

[zoldos]

It doesn't. Template issue then. I don't recall making any template mods that would cause errors. Things were fine for a month, then bam, server errors.

I did change a few things in the conversation template. I'll take a peak at it.

Thanks!!!

 

[zoldos]

*fixed, I messed up a template edit. Reverted it, and bam.

Thanks to all!!
