Upgrading from an old Beta Version

Mallinger

I continued my upgrade process by trying to install the first third-party extensions, all quite common:

fof/pages, fof/links and fof/upload

In all three cases, I received a yellow deprecation notice (likely negligible):

Deprecation Notice: Required parameter $path follows optional parameter $schema in phar:///usr/local/bin/composer/vendor/justinrainbow/json-schema/src/JsonSchema/Constraints/UndefinedConstraint.php:53
Deprecation Notice: Required parameter $path follows optional parameter $schema in phar:///usr/local/bin/composer/vendor/justinrainbow/json-schema/src/JsonSchema/Constraints/UndefinedConstraint.php:97

followed by a red error exception:

  [ErrorException]
  Trying to access array offset on value of type null

which terminated the process.

In all cases I ran e.g. composer require fof/pages on the command line from within my flarum directory.
PHP is version 8.0.26, both with Apache 2.0 (phpinfo.php) and on the command line (php -v).
My composer.json is still the one from the fresh v1.6.2 installation.

Has anyone an idea?

Mallinger the ErrorException was thrown by Composer, or by Flarum?

In either case you can try running the command with -v flag to get more verbose output which will tell us in which file the error happened.

Can you also check composer --version to see whether you have an outdated Composer version?

Thank you Clark.

Me stupid. On my computer I need to call php /usr/local/composer.phar for composer 2, simple composer still invokes composer 1 which seems to fail with pretty everything including composer --version.

php /usr/local/composer.phar fof/pages etc. did the job beautifully.
