Error in cron job - Githubissues

Steps to reproduce

Install files_antivirus
Configure cron job to run periodically

Expected behaviour

Normal operation

Actual behaviour

Once per day (even though the cron job runs every 5 minutes), the cron job fails with the following stack trace:

Error: Call to a member function getTime() on null in /var/www/nextcloud/lib/public/BackgroundJob/TimedJob.php:94
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/nextcloud/cron.php(151): OCP\BackgroundJob\TimedJob->execute()
#1 {main}

This began immediately after upgrading to v4.0.0 (no other changes) on multiple nextcloud instances (both v24 and v25)

Server configuration

Operating system: Debian 11

Web server: Nginx
