Saving new blog entries not working after upgrade to 2.8 - anyone else having th...

Hi,

I upgraded a local MAMP Perch site to 2.8 from the previous version. I can get into the Blog admin, but when I resave a changed blog post or create a new one, the screen goes to white in the admin when I click save. Checking the site, the changes aren't saved. This is with the existing Blog app - no use of blocks or repeaters. Saving content in non-Blog areas of the site functions normally.

Below is the debug message from the blog post UI. Nothing shows up on the blog post in the web browser at all. Below that is the Diagnostics Report.

Thanks!

Does the problem still exist after updating the Blog App to the latest version? That would be the first thing to try.

That fixed it. I hadn't realized there was a new version of the blog app.

Though it may make the diagnostics page a little long, it'd be great if apps were listed under Health Check (with the green checkmarks). I know they're listed under the summary information, but that doesn't list whether they're outdated.

Thanks!

Just adding to this, I have a customer also having a problem. Perch is at 2.8 (not yet 2.8.1) and Blog App is still at 4.5.4. When trying to add a new blog post, we get this error (and its re-creatable).

Fatal error: Call to a member function return_instance() on a non-object in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/perch/core/lib/api/PerchAPI_Form.class.php on line 407

Before I update Perch to 2.8.1 and Blog to 4.6, do you want any diagnostics?

Maybe its a prerequisite to update Blog to 4.6 if Perch has been updated to 2.8? I don't think it says this anywhere. I also didn't spot that the Blog App level had been increased. I'd echo Franz's request for Apps to be in the Health Check sometime.

Yes you need to update blog when updating Perch, the news listing is the place to look to see if official apps have been updated.

I agree, apps in the health check would be handy.
