Error upgrading from beta6 to beta7: Invalid repository file

Arcadia

Same problem like this one: flarum/core487. But open_basedir in my php.ini is not set.

This happened after I run composer update and go to /admin enter database password.

run a test.php

<?php
$path = '/data/wwwroot/mountnoon/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Plugins/BBCodes/Configurator/repository.xml';
error_reporting(-1);
#phpinfo();

$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;

libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
var_dump($dom->load($path));
var_dump(libxml_get_errors());
die($dom->saveXML());

successfully parsed the xml file on server

failed remote with

bool(false) array(1) { [0]=> object(LibXMLError)#2 (6) { 
["level"]=> int(1) 
["code"]=> int(1549) 
["column"]=> int(0) 
["message"]=> string(131) "failed to load external entity "/data/wwwroot/mountnoon/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Plugins/BBCodes/Configurator/repository.xml" " 
["file"]=> string(0) "" 
["line"]=> int(0) } 
}

UPDATE
The problem is caused by an out of date BBCode extension. Not sure why it happens but disable the extension and other dependencies solve the problem.

Can you post your composer.json?

Did you disable all the extensions before upgrading? You should be able to do so in the database (settings > extensions enabled, remove all the extensions listed) even if you didn't.

It works. I failed to follow the basic rule...

The BBCode extension and another extension depend on it caused the problem. Disable both prevent the problem. I didn't noticed it cause I only tested with BBCode extension disabled before.

So it's an out of date extension problem. Thank you !

BBCode is a Flarum extension, it should be updated. Try running composer update flarum/flarum-ext-bbcode and see if it updates it.

Update not work. not sure if its a config problem or this is the latest version.
Try reinstall the extension. Still cause same error.

Hmm, beta.5 is the latest version, so that's not it.

Can you try php flarum cache:clear and then re-enable BBCode to see if it works now?

What is the output of php flarum info? It seems more likely you're still stuck at an older Flarum core version due to other packages blocking an upgrade.
