PHP 7.4.30

#2

@SteveG That code was newly added in 4.12.0 (with https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/pull/19490)

@SSFGizmo Do you know what exactly you did, when that error occured?

#3

@SSFGizmo could you maybe also check your database if the goals table has a description column or not?

@Lukas

Mouse click on ‘Administration’.

  • index.php?module=CoreAdminHome&action=home&idSite=XXX&period=day&date=yesterday
#6

@SSFGizmo That column should actually already have been added with Matomo 3.0.0
See https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/blob/c11469e4199405628e97650914f0cdbdea94dac7/plugins/Goals/Updates/3.0.0-b1.php#L36
You can add it manually to fix that error.

@SteveG OK, thank you

ALTER TABLE matomo_goal ADD COLUMN description VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '' AFTER name;
