Attempt to modify property "query" on null

Hi,

After upgrading to Php 8 we get the following error.

Attempt to modify property "query" on null

Here is the backtrace

The error is gone after switching back to Php 7 but since php7 comes to end of life next year we would like to start using php 8. We are using Joomla 4.2.5. I have already tried to install the beta version 4.0.5 but the problem still remains

Any ideas please?

Thanks in advance :)

Looks like that the version com_phocadownload_v4.0.5Beta4 solves the problem. :-)
Is there gonna be a stable version for that?

Thanks in advance

Hi, you can install the latest Beta, there are no plans to add new features so this version probably becomes stable soon.
