issue with Smart Search cronjob

Post by nvsdesign » Tue Oct 26, 2021 9:34 am

Hi all,

I'm having some issues with setting up a cronjob for Smart Search indexing. I'm getting an error in my cronjob saying: 0 - Call to a member function getTag() on null

I did some tests and it looks like this is caused by the system plugin Smart search - content. If I disable this plugin, the error disappears. There are no other plugins active:

This is the full error I get in my cron notification:

Code: Select all

I'm using Joomla 3.10.2 on php 7.4.13.

Any ideas how to solve this?

Is there a setting in Joomla 3 Smart Search that allows you to disable Filter Numeric Terms?

There no such setting in Joomla 3 Smart Search. At least not that I know of.

It could be any other plugin. Enable debug in global configuration. Reproduce the error again. You should see a stack trace. Post it here.
