Environment

• ILIAS version: 8.13
• PHP version: PHP 8.0.30
• Plugin version: 8.1.3 (2024-08-09)
• Opencast version: 14.6

Appearently the error occurs in a core ILIAS part Services/Language/classes/Setup/class.ilSetupLanguage.php stating that global $ilDB is null.
I don't understand it. PHP version is 8.0.30, Composer run without error.
Am I really the only one with this error?

I can confirm this issue when trying to update the plugin separately (with the --plugin option). But this seems to be an issue in ILIAS core, I can reproduce this with every plugin and even with non existing ones (e.g. php setup/setup.php update --plugin BlaBlaBla)

[mic-men]

Ok, and I can confirm that it works without the --plugin option. We are normally very reluctant to the overall php setup call when we just want to update a plugin (if something fails the whole ILIAS might be unusable). Therefore until now I did not check without the option.
So we know that it is an issue in ILIAS core (but I'm still wondering why it worked two weeks ago and we didn't update ILIAS in the meantime...).
Can we do something about it?

Can we do something about it?

The best way to report the problem is via mantis for the ILIAS core: https://mantis.ilias.de
You can link the tick here, then we have the reference.

I made a bug report in mantis

@mic-men thanks a lot!

According to mantis bug tracker the problem is fixed with ILIAS 8.15.
The issue remains open until confirmation by someone with this version.

The issue opened in Mantis (https://mantis.ilias.de/view.php?id=41905) got fixed. Can someone confirm the fix of this issue her, too?
