Editing a file, I get: Call to a member function format() on false

[pat01]

Hello

I do add a file and save. This works.
After I open it to edit and save again. Then I get an error message:
Call to a member function format() on false

The same happens if I open an (older) existing file and save.

How can I solve this?

Thanks / Danke
Patrick

Hi,
which Joomla! version?
which Phoca Download Component version?
which PHP version?

Enable Joomla! 'Debug System' and set 'Error Reporting=Maximum' to get a more detailed error message (Call Stack).

Kind regards,
Benno

Hi Patrick,

We had similar cases where it was a bug in Joomla. It was fixed with Joomla 5.1.1.
https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/43234

Maybe check whether en/language is up to date?
Database: Click on repair?

Kind regards

Hi Christine

The database seems to be OK:

But now I did do update DB structure anyway for both (Joomla CMS and Phopca Download).

And after the error has gone!

It's strange that everything seemed to be OK in database, but obviously was not.

Anyway, the problem is solved.

Thanks a lot!
