Hi, I'm getting this messaje:

any idea what es causing this issue?

[jason-platts]

Sorry about this - it appears there is a bug in the recent code changes that we did not spot as it is OK on our infrastructure (postgres database). mod/oublog/locallib.php

If you change line 3571 to:

$postauthornamefields = $userfieldsapi->get_sql('pa', false, 'poster', '', false)->selects;

It should fix the issue with any luck... thanks for reporting, and if there are similar errors elsewhere please update here and I can advise of a fix.

Can you fix this in the code and push it out to moodle.org?

[jstilwell]

Hi Jason, we're also seeing this issue on our platform. Do you just need a pull request for the proposed change in order to push up the fixed version to moodle.org?

[jason-platts]

There is a new version with this fix on moodle.org now...

[michaelwayneharris87]

Hi @jason-platts, I'm having trouble finding the git commit for the current version that is on moodle.org. We like to keep track of updates by pulling the repo. It looks like the tip of MOODLE_311_STABLE still points to 2020091401. Can you point me in the right direction?

[jason-platts]

Note there is no git version of the fix mentioned in this issue.... due to our git release strategy it won't turn up in github till March.

(Also the versioning on moodle.org is artificial. I had to manually increment the version as it doesn't allow you to update the download without a new version number)

[michaelwayneharris87]

Ah got it — thanks!

[nrosenquist]

Hi @jason-platts, outside of forking and editing a new repo to use for a few weeks, is there any way to pull code with this fix included via git before March? My team clones from this repo directly for our Moodle builds and this is currently a breaking issue for some clients. TY!

[michaelwayneharris87]

I second what @nrosenquist is suggesting — It would be very helpful if the code on github was up-to-date. As it is, we've had to stop cloning the github repo for our projects, which adds overhead to our workflows.

[jason-platts]

I've updated github with our latest code early - hopefully this will resolve the issues you are seeing.
