Donrec disables scheduled jobs being triggered

[MichPoe]

Salut. Since a few civicrm versions, we need to turn off the donrec extension because once it is turned on, cron stops triggering jobs. The log shows:

Oct 11 11:32:05	[warning] Deprecated function CRM_Core_BAO_Job::retrieve, use API.

I tried to disable other civicrm extensions in case there is an interference. But nothing changed. What could cause this problem?

[MichPoe]

p.s: newest civicrm update 5.65.2 and donrec 2.3-dev

[jensschuppe]

I can't imagine a deprecated method call causing cron to stop working. Also, this method is not being called by the extension at all. Are there any other error messages logged (ideally with a stack trace)?

Would you be able to provide the exact version/commit of the extension you're using? 2.3-dev is not a tagged version and refers to the current master branch, where quite some things have happened since the last stable version.

Thank you. I reverted back to the recently released stable version 2.2.1 but still having the same problem (scheduled jobs not triggering after the install of donrec). I could find following log info (not many errors created as such):

Sorry, but those log messages do not seem to be related to this extension.

[MichPoe]

I know, there are no other error messages and therefore no way for us to find a hint for a solution. We can only disable and abandon the extension at this point. Thanks anyway for your replies.

[jensschuppe]

Sorry we couldn't help from here. If you're interested, feel free to send an inquiry to info@systopia.de for contracting us with debugging etc.

NEW:When triggering the cron manually, I get following error information, maybe helpful. PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=' in /srv/www/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/files/civicrm/ext/de.systopia.donrec/donrec.php on line 285

All the best, Michael

[jensschuppe]

This line contains the NULL-coalescing assignment operator ??= which has been introduced with PHP 7.4. If you encounter a syntax error, you are most likely on a PHP version older than 7.4 and should update your PHP version to a more recent one. PHP 7 has been End-Of-Life for over a year now, so you should update to version 8.1. or 8.2 at least.

Great, thanks for your hint.
