Same issue on award day... Sigh. . Does this ever get tested?

Also no award post generated for winner. Winner widget does work though . In my case mode 2.

@MtoR

Clement · Oct 2, 2018

Hello,

Yes it does get tested, though there may be some corner cases.

From what I see of the logs, it seems you are not in mode 2 but mode 1 (odd as per what you say) as the error is in a portion of cron task code related to that.
Apparently, you have not set the user id in the options that is used to create the album in mode 1 as well as post threads/post on various actions.

All options are set as the contest did work in Mode 2 and thread was updated with my admin user ID on submissions etc. The end of the contest failed to create the winning post.

All I did was install the addon, change to mode 2 (as it installs mode 1 by default) then set the options. Is there another step here?

Clement · Oct 2, 2018

No no there is not.

Do you have any add-on that messes with the cron tasks ?

As you can see from your log:
#11 src/addons/XFA/XFMGMediaOfTheMonth/Cron/XFMGMediaOfTheMonth.php(19): XFA\XFMGMediaOfTheMonth\Cron\XFMGMediaOfTheMonth::cronMode1()

It's calling mode 1 stuff so that's not logical.

My apologies I should've copied in my error I assumed it was the same but may be a different issue (though same result):

Hi,

I reviewed the errors log, it's only possible if the attached option is not set.
You sure you did set it ?

Yes of course. Do you need an Sql export of your options table wherever that is?

Clement · Oct 3, 2018

No I believe you but that's not logical error.

This is the second error you get related to options, with this one:
https://www.xen-factory.com/index.php?threads/contest-thread-not-created.2767/

You are running latest xF2 version ?
Do you have some specific add-ons for caching or something like that that could be interfering with options ?

Yes that error you reference was resolved with a patch early September so thread was auto created (in wrong forum) which is another issue I am having together with another guy on here.

Running XF2.0.10. No special caching addons using standard XF caching and session cache with a Redis backend. If you have time you can have a peek via Teamviewer right now... I have a few mins

Clement · Oct 3, 2018

I have to install teamviewer

The user ID is set to 1 by default. Am I supposed to change that?

JayT · Oct 16, 2018

It's the same user I set it to with the XF1 version. Worked fine before.

Clement · Oct 16, 2018

You've installed latest version ?
There was indeed a little bug.
