CakePHP error importing entries fields

[janhenckens]

Description

We're seeing an error with feeds that have an entries field in the settings:

Invalid data type, must be an array or \\ArrayAccess instance. - Hash.php: 50

In this cakephp file.

When dumping the data that is causing the exception, that appears to be craft\\fields\\Entries.

This used to run without issues and I'm not sure since when it's broken.

Steps to reproduce

1. Have a feed that includes relations to other entries in the site
2. Have an entries field on that feed, set select the related entry

Additional info

• Plugin version: 4.1.2
• Craft version: 3.3.7

Update: after an afternoon of debugging & dumping stack traces we ended up seeing that Feed Me was trying to import and create Commerce products, simply because the field in question had "variants" as its handle. Changing the handle fixed it.

Commerce isn't installed on this site so this might be something worth having a look at. Thanks!

Just ran into this exact same issue. Renaming the field from variants fixed the issue. Thanks.

This issue still persists.

Thanks @janhenckens for posting this issue. Saved me from wasting time debugging!

Cheers @carlcs :) I was hoping this would be fixed by now :)

Having a hard time trying to reproduce this, unfortunately. Can someone send a sample feed, database dump, and composer.json file over to support@craftcms.com and reference this issue so we can dig in further?

Hello @angrybrad, here’s everything you need to reproduce this problem. Thanks for looking into it!

Ok, so there seems to be a new bug in Feed Me 4.3.3 that didn’t exist in 4.3.1. Even after changing the field handle to something else than variants, it’s still not importing content into that field. Probably unrelated to the “Invalid data type” error this issue is about. But I’d probably recommend to use 4.3.1 to reproduce and debug this.

Thanks, everyone - fixed for the next release.

This bug appears to exist in Craft 4 when importing from a feed with a key of productId. The same error listed above is returned, and relabelling the key resolved the issue.
