Can't call method "setArchivist" on an undefined value
This is what i get from my foswiki website:
Foswiki detected an internal error - please check your Foswiki logs and webserver logs for more information.
Can't call method "setArchivist" on an undefined value
Foswiki error log:
Can't call method "setArchivist" on an undefined value at /var/lib/foswiki/lib/Foswiki/Contrib/DBCacheContrib/Archivist/Storable.pm line 38.
Apache error log:
mod_fcgid: stderr: Can't call method "setArchivist" on an undefined value at /var/lib/foswiki/lib/Foswiki/Contrib/DBCacheContrib/Archivist/Storable.pm line 38.
I got the same exact error. It came in the middle of a day, I don't know for sure but I guess something got corrupt in the DBCache somewhere. Anyway I tried to change
DBCacheContrib to use BDB but then got the same issue as
Tasks.Item9118. I was using
FastCGI at the moment because I thought for a moment it was mod_fcgid related.
After much time scratching my head I cleared the
working/work_areas/DBCacheContrib
as described by
MichaelDaum in the
Tasks.Item9118 and switched back to my original mod_fcgid, and voila! I'm still not sure what the actual cause was.
