Hi all,

Im trying to run a website made using October 3 in my local environment but Im getting this really weird error

I cloned the project, ran composer install, everything went without errors

But I try to load the website, I get this:


Cannot access "parent" when current class scope has no parent

~/vendor/october/rain/src/Extension/ExtendableTrait.php line 509
        if ($callable !== null) {
            return call_user_func_array($callable, $params);
        }
  
        $parent = get_parent_class($this);
        if ($parent !== false && method_exists($parent, '__call')) {
            return parent::__call($name, $params);
        }
  
        throw new BadMethodCallException(sprintf(
            'Call to undefined method %s::%s()',
            static::class,
            $name

Updated from 3.6.12 to 3.6.13 because of a fix:

“blueprint pagefinder replacements on link generation”

and got the same error.

Yeah, it seems to be a problem on 3.6.13

After your post, I downgraded october/rain to 3.6.12 and the error disappeared and the site loaded normally

Apologies, some code for PHP 8.3 was introduced that broke 8.2 and earlier, and we rolled it back. Please try updating to october/rain v3.6.14 .

If anyone in PHP land stumbles across this, PHP 8.3 appears to have removed the arguments from the get_parent_class interface to overcome the ambiguity of the target class.

If you want the exact equivalent functionality of get_parent_class() in PHP 8.3 as it was in PHP 8.2 and below:

  • get_parent_class() is equivalent to get_parent_class(self::class)
