Object #<Object> has no method 'indexOf'

[Leonardo Galani]

Hi.. my v.0.9.x start to throw some errors on some recent topics. as show below:

Its not related to any plugin and i saw that this kind of error started when i changed to 0.9.x

What git hash are you on?

[Leonardo Galani]

Seems like topic titles with Á É é á are crashing..

My last git log entry:

commit cee3918e9b8096e421933678178ddfe4e3b71adf

fixing crash on settings save

[baris]

I will take a look.

@Leonardo-Galani Can you do me a favor and add the below code in src/controllers/topics.js

console.log(ogImageUrl, topicData.thumb);

Add it at line 176 and let me know the output of the log after you get the crash.

[Leonardo Galani]

@baris The output is this (just before* the crash)

  { email: 'oscar_correiaj@hotmail.com' } undefined

on another post:

{ email: 'katalifer@gmail.com' } undefined

[baris]

Looks like ogImageUrl is set to an object where it should just be a string. Do you have a profile image plugin or something? I'm guessing a plugin is setting postAtIndex.user.picture to { email: 'katalifer@gmail.com' } which is causing the crash.

[Leonardo Galani]

@baris
No, im not using any avatar profile img plugin...

Those are the ones installed and running:

 - nodebb-widget-essentials
 - nodebb-plugin-cards
 - nodebb-plugin-composer-default
 - nodebb-plugin-dbsearch
 - nodebb-plugin-desktop-notifications
 - nodebb-plugin-emailer-mailgun
 - nodebb-plugin-google-analytics
 - nodebb-plugin-markdown
 - nodebb-plugin-recent-cards
 - nodebb-plugin-rss
 - nodebb-plugin-soundpack-default
 - nodebb-plugin-spoilers
 - nodebb-plugin-sso-google
 - nodebb-rewards-essentials
 - nodebb-plugin-sso-facebook
 - nodebb-plugin-mentions
 - nodebb-plugin-custom-pages

[baris]

In that case can you change the console.log to console.log(ogImageUrl, postAtIndex); and post the log when it crashes.

@Leonardo-Galani said:

picture: { email: 'oscar_correiaj@hotmail.com' },

Shouldn't be an object, not sure why it's set to one though.

Run grep -R "filter:user.getPicture" node_modules/ in your nodebb folder and see if there are any matches.

[Leonardo Galani]

@baris

No matches

[baris]

Then I am officially out of ideas, you can set those users picture and uploaded picture property to an empty string through mongodb, and let them set their picture again.

See if that helps. I also added a check on master that should prevent the crash, but it still doesn't explain the issue of the picture property being an object.

[PitaJ]

@baris Maybe it's an SSO issue? Something like the SSO is returning an object for the image instead of a link to the image?

[baris]

@pitaj Yeah that makes sense I checked the sso-facebook and google plugins, they are saving the picture field but there are no checks if the data is a string or object.

https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-sso-google/blob/master/library.js#L120-L123

[PitaJ]

@baris yeah I'm thinking it's Facebook since the given email is a hotmail address.

[Leonardo Galani]

He used to have a image ( this user ) .. i will try to add something and delete to check it.

[Leonardo Galani]

@Leonardo-Galani YEP... avatar removed.. and post now working fine...
