Hi,

I’m having issues with installing it with PHP 8.1 and Mautic 5.0.3.
I tried both:

• Release_ACS-2023.12.01-9
• RELEASE_ACS-2022.09.02

Still same error after php8.1 bin/console mautic:plugins:install no update
If I run the php8.1 bin/console cache:clear then mautic is out I need to delete the folder plugins/CustomObjectsBundle/ and then again cache clear and it is back again.

Any help?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @janoslaszlo, I’m also having the same issue, just on the 5.0.3 version. Did you find a solution?

Hey, the Custom Objects plugin is not yet ready for Mautic 5.

The composer.json file is where you can find the plugin requirements for all Mautic plugins:

acquia/mc-cs-plugin-custom-objects/blob/1da392f4a78b4dc8555f70bdafcfc9d2df6d5532/composer.json#L31-L35

The work needed to make the plugin compatible with Mautic 5 is in this pull request:

[WIP] Update to 5x

Please, get involved with testing if you’d like to speed up the process.

Linking Custom Objects together via API

After a while I finally got the plugin working. Maybe helpfull for other people who ran into the same problems. We’re running Mautic 4.4.12, with php 8.0.

First I tried to install the plugin with the following command (as www-data): php /var/www/html/bin/console mautic:marketplace:install acquia/mc-cs-plugin-custom-objects

That didn’t work. I got an error:

Then I did what I normally do when installing a plugin:

1. I copied the link to the github file. I used the branch @joeyk mentioned before: RELEASE_ACS-2022.09.02
2. Go to the plugin directory → cd /var/www/html/plugins
3. Download the zip file with the wget command: wget https://github.com/acquia/mc-cs-plugin-custom-objects/archive/refs/heads/RELEASE_ACS-2022.09.02.zip
4. Unzip the file: unzip RELEASE_ACS-2022.09.02.zip
5. Change the name: mv mc-cs-plugin-custom-objects-RELEASE_ACS-2022.09.02 CustomObjectsBundle
6. Install plugins: php /var/www/html/bin/console mautic:plugins:install
7. Then I got the message there were no plugins updated of installed
8. Clear cache: php /var/www/html/bin/console cache:clear
9. Then I tried to install the plugin again with the same command as in step 7.
10. I got this error message

12. I added the -vvv paarameter to my command to install the plugin: php /var/www/html/bin/console mautic:plugins:install -vvv
13. I logged in to Mautic and on the right in the settings menu there was a Custom Objects menu item.

Hope this helps someone!
