TypeError FlexDirectory.php ?

[jchalifour]

I just started experimenting with Grav on 1.7.17 about a week ago, then upgraded to 1.7.18 the other day and started getting an error when I clicked the blue Configuration button of the Pages admin interface. I'm just using my localhost setup of Apache 2.4.48, PHP 8.0.8 on Manjaro Linux. The error is:

TypeError
Grav\Framework\Flex\FlexDirectory::loadDirectoryConfig(): Return value must be of type array, null returned

I tried a completely fresh installation of 1.7.18 with no additional plugins, content, or customizations and got the same thing. Then investigating some more, it showed the following:

/srv/http/grav-admin/system/src/Grav/Framework/Flex/FlexDirectory.php

        }
     
        /**
         * @param string $name
         * @return array
         * @internal
         */
        public function loadDirectoryConfig(string $name): array
        {
            $grav = Grav::instance();
     
            /** @var UniformResourceLocator $locator */
            $locator = $grav['locator'];
            $uri = $this->getDirectoryConfigUri($name);
     
            // If configuration is found in main configuration, use it.
            if (str_starts_with($uri, 'config://')) {
                $path = strtr(substr($uri, 9,  -5), '/', '.');
     
                return $grav['config']->get($path);
            }
     
            // Load the configuration file.
            $filename = $locator->findResource($uri, true);
            if ($filename === false) {
                return [];
            }
     
            $file = YamlFile::instance($filename);
     
            return $file->content();
        }
     
        /**
         * @param string|null $name
         * @return string
         */
        public function getDirectoryConfigUri(string $name = null): string
        {
            $name = $name ?: $this->getFlexType();

Arguments

    "Grav\Framework\Flex\FlexDirectory::loadDirectoryConfig(): Return value must be of type array, null returned"

I'm new to this so not sure really what is happening however based on that message I did an experiment and reverted the FlexDirectory.php file to the one from version 1.7.17. All seems to work fine again. Note: I also noticed this issue with the Configuration tab in the Accounts section of the admin interface.

I hope this helps.

Oh, yes I think so, sorry I didn't see that before posting.

Let us continue in the other report.

At least yours has more php details for the guys to take a look at. So both combined could help, no?

[mahagr]

Already fixed it. :)
