Cron error with Conf::$api on v17.0.2

[m-hefti]

Hi,

I upgraded from v15 to v17.0.2 and experience an issue with Cron jobs. I'm getting this error:

PHP Warning: Undefined property: Conf::$api in /[.../dolibarr]/core/class/utils.class.php (http://[domain.ext/dolibarr]/core/class/utils.class.php) on line 149 PHP Warning: Attempt to read property "dir_temp" on null in /[.../dolibarr]/core/class/utils.class.php (http://[domain.ext/dolibarr]/core/class/utils.class.php) on line 149

It seems that $conf->api is not always set, which is not checked when called through the cron_run_jobs.php file. I'm guessing it's the job trying to remove temp files that triggers this error.

I have found a reference that explicitly sets $conf->[...module...]->dir_temp in the source code (core/class/conf.class.php, line 442), but didn't really figure out how to start debugging as I'm not a Dolibarr expert... any fix (or help) would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Same error on Dolibarr 19.0.1., PHP 8.1.2 (Ubuntu), nginx 1.18.0, MariaDB 5.5.5-10.6.16-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.22.04.1-log PHP Warning: Undefined property: Conf::$api in /var/www/dolibarr/htdocs/core/class/utils.class.php on line 158 PHP Warning: Attempt to read property "dir_temp" on null in /var/www/dolibarr/htdocs/core/class/utils.class.php on line 158

still happens on 19.0.2 - do we have to create a new issue because the title reads v17? This ticket is open for a year by now without even a response... :(

I didn't get any answer neither. The problem remains, even if cronjob is run successfully (the bills are created). I just get an e-mail everytime it runs... a bit annoying but my clients are nevertheless able to work as expected.

I would still appreciate any fix.
