Hi,

I have a channel field called “image” designed to allow me to add a thumbnail image to an article.

After updating to 2.5.1, I’m getting the following error (twice):

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: Wrong parameter count for array_unique()
Filename: libraries/EE_Javascript.php
Line Number: 68

And EE won’t let me add the image.

Actually, I cleared the cookies and cache and I’m getting the same error twice when I click Content > Publish > [channel name].

Really? Not even a “we’re looking into it.”

Hi mfraase,

Really? Not even a “we’re looking into it.”

We don’t work like that man. We want to offer you a possible solution with the first response, not placate your wait time 😊

Did you make sure to update /themes as part of the update to 2.5.1? What version of ExpressionEngine did you update from? UI errors like this are usually the symptom of an out of date /themes folder

I look forward to your reply!

Cheers,

Thanks for the response, Dan.

Yes, I’ve updated /themes. And I’ve double-checked everything.

Update was from 2.5.0 to 2.5.1.

Going now to triple-check everything.

Hey Michael,

Ok, so themes is out - is the field a standard file field? What is the process that produces the error for you? SInce this is 2.5.1 - I need to try to reproduce the problem if it’s a bug.

Any third-party stuff involved?

Cheers,

HERE’S WHAT I DID:

Re-installed all of the files from the 2.5.1 distribution (including /system/installer just to be safe).
Pointed my browser at the control panel. It told me everything was updated.
Went to Content > Publish > [channel_name].

HERE’S WHAT I EXPECTED:

The control panel to open so I can add an article.

HERE’S WHAT HAPPENED:

I received two instances of the following error:

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: Wrong parameter count for array_unique()
Filename: libraries/EE_Javascript.php
Line Number: 68

I’m unable to add an image to the draft article. My {image] field is a channel field in my “default” field group. Field settings type is “file” and field options file type is “image.”

As others have noted below, I’m also getting the above error (but only a single instance of it) in the File Manager.

I’m also suddenly getting a bunch of other PHP warnings all of a sudden that I can’t replicate just now.

Update: Here’s a sampling of the PHP warnings; most are repeated at least twice:

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined variable: plugin_info
Filename: models/addons_model.php
Line Number: 145

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: array_unique() [function.array-unique]: The argument should be an array
Filename: models/addons_model.php
Line Number: 145

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined variable: plugin_info
Filename: models/addons_model.php
Line Number: 183
{/code]

[code]
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: array_unique() [function.array-unique]: The argument should be an array
Filename: models/addons_model.php
Line Number: 183

And yes, there’s boat-loads of third-party stuff involved; I’ve tried turning off all of it that I can, with the same problem resulting.

Let me know if you want me to provide you with an admin login.

I’m actually also getting this same error when going to File Manager after upgrading to 2.5.1

Heya guys, just thought I’d add to the mix too. From 2.5.0 to 2.5.1, same PHP errors for me in File Manager and in addition when I try to create a new category for a channel (that could be just me however).
(Matrix/Exp:resso Store/Freeform only 3rd party)

Tried creating a new category and also got the same error.

HERE’S WHAT I DID:
I’m unable to add an image to the draft article. My {image] field is a channel field in my “default” field group. Field settings type is “file” and field options file type is “image.”

I report the same problems (and I think they are serious: angry customers 😊

I’m experiencing the same PHP errors in the File Manager and other areas.

Perhaps this thread could be merged with: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/218293/

So nothing on this yet? Anyone have 2.5.0? I might need to roll back to that version since this is a live client site that I’m having issues with.

Hi!

Well I looked into the EE_Javascript.php file at line 68 and the error says that the function array_unique() gets the wrong number of parameters.
I’ve checked that, and found out that removing the optional sorting parameter seems to solve the problem.

So changing

if (is_array($val) && isset($current[$var_name]) && is_array($current[$var_name]))
  {
   $current[$var_name] = array_unique(array_merge($current[$var_name], $val), SORT_STRING);
  }

into

if (is_array($val) && isset($current[$var_name]) && is_array($current[$var_name]))
  {
   $current[$var_name] = array_unique(array_merge($current[$var_name], $val));
  }

solves the issue for me.

It doesn’t seem to be a problem, because SORT_STRING is the default sorting, so removing it may not cause a problem.

Can anybody confirm the solution?

I’m also getting the error just going to Design -> Templates -> Template Manager. I upgraded from 2.5.0.

The fix by timoteus seems to resolve the bug for me.

Thanks Timoteus, this solved the problem!
