Internal PHP error: #2 Undefined array key "groups"

[nebulo]

Hello everybody, 

I am creating a nightly export of the froxlor-settings using a cronjob:

/var/www/html/froxlor/bin/froxlor-cli froxlor:api-call froxlor Froxlor.exportSettings > /var/customers/froxlor-settings.backup.json

Unfortunately today I recognized the file just contains:

Internal PHP error: #2 Undefined array key "groups"

Any idea what could be the reason for this?

is "froxlor" an admin-user in your froxlor installation?

[d00p]

# bin/froxlor-cli froxlor:api-call admin Froxlor.exportSettings
{
    "data": "{....}"
}

works just fine with an existing admin-user....

Yes froxlor is actually the admin-user. I am pretty sure that it worked in the past.

It looks like it is working again. I suspect it works after I've created an export via the WebUI which worked immediately. I'll keep an eye on this.

that's unlikely to be the cause. Any custom files in froxlor/actions/admin/settings? Because they all return an array starting with index 'groups'

No I don't have any custom files in

The issue is that it doesn't work if the command is not executed from withhin the froxlor-base directory even if the path to the froxlor-cli is absolute.

Okay, that's something we can fix, thanks for noticing

if you want, try the following patch, it should resolve the behavior:
