Elasticsearch errors in System Logs / on fronted, default setup doesn't work?!

[Miso]

Ok, here's what's happening on our setup (Elasticsearch 7, MariaDB 11.4, PHP 8.3 while testing on 8.1 and getting the same results)... on the front-end we are getting this error for any search conducted on the forum:

TypeError: array_map(): Argument #2 ($array) must be of type array, null given (0)
#0 /home/domain/public_html/forums/system/Content/Search/Elastic/Query.php(1315): array_map(Object(Closure), NULL)
#1 /home/domain/public_html/forums/applications/core/modules/front/search/search.php(760): IPS\Content\Search\Elastic\_Query->search('digital', NULL, 17, 'or')
#2 /home/domain/public_html/forums/applications/core/modules/front/search/search.php(126): IPS\core\modules\front\search\_search->_results()
#3 /home/domain/public_html/forums/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(118): IPS\core\modules\front\search\_search->manage()
#4 /home/domain/public_html/forums/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute()
#5 /home/domain/public_html/forums/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
#6 {main}

 

and in the backend it shows that + the backtrace:
 

#0 /home/domain/public_html/forums/init.php(1049): IPS\_Log::log('TypeError: arra...', 'uncaught_except...')
#1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(TypeError))
#2 {main}

 

Any idea what's happening here and how to fix this?

Please could I confirm you are running at least 7.2.0?

PHP 8.3 is not supported, so you should really revert to PHP 8.1 anyway.

As I noted in the original post, both 8.1 and 8.3 produced the same result/error, so I highly doubt the PHP version has anything to do with this problem.

What I do suspect is that it has something to do with the Invision Board code, as per some other posts on this topic where Invision team has admitted that similar errors were caused by bugs in the current Invision code, and they fixed them at some point. I have a feeling this is one of those bugs that they didn't foresee or anticipate either...

 

p.s. Even though 8.3 is not "officially" supported, Invision Board works perfectly fine on it and we haven't seen ANY issues on 8.3, so there's that.

My colleagues question here looks to have been missed. Are you running ElasticSearch at least 7.2.0?

Yes, literally installed the latest v7 (7.17 I believe?) yesterday from the 7.* repo.

No, it does not. While the error you posted happens with both versions, there is still a difference in the end. You may not notice it immediately, but some things are most likely not working as they should.

 

For example, at some point, many people reported issues upgrading to a newer version, and they were all using PHP 8.2+. Switching back to PHP 8.1 allowed them to upgrade without issues. You might see it working, but it's not fully working at 100%.

Well, we've gone through half a dozen upgrades just fine on 8.3, without a single issue, and haven't seen anything or haven't had anything reported over the last few months on 8.3 from users or admins, so I'll assume it's working just fine until proven otherwise and until we see some sort of issues with the board on 8.3.

You might say it's not working 100%, but unless you can point out some specifics that aren't working properly on 8.3 I'll stick with our assumption and 8.3, thank you very much.

Anyway, back to this Elasticsearch issue instead... which, I mentioned, happens in exact same way on PHP 8.1 and 8.3, so it's not PHP related, that's for sure.

Please feel free to use 8.3 if you would like. However please bear in mind we are unable to issue support while you are using that version. As mentioned above, we do not support PHP 8.3

Ok, so if I flip it over to 8.1 and you assume that we're on 8.1 from here on, can you help with this issue then?

Yes, we can assist if you are using versions of items we support, of course.

Updated the FTP access details. Forum admin details shouldn't have changed at all, so those should be good to go.

Things look to work fine when all 3rd party items are disabled on your site. Unfortunately this appears to be one of your 3rd party items. Its worth noting also that your server appears to be very very slow at present
