Question

I have installed Smile_Elasticsearch extension.It is working fine with the default mode but when I enabled developer mode it is showing an error.

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, first array member is not a valid class name or object in app/code/Smile/ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory/Model/Layer/Filter/Category.php on line 150

Please see attached screenshot.

Technology Detail's:

• Magento version: 2.3
• Smile Elasticsearch version: 2.7.0 (which is compatible with Magento 2.3)
• Installed Elasticsearch version: 5.6.15 (which is compatible with magento 2.3)

So, Please let me know how can I fix this error? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.!!!

Answer 1

The error you are seeing in the file app/code/Smile/ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory/Model/Layer/Filter/Category.php suggests that there is an issue with a callback function that is being called in the file. This error is typically caused when the callback function is not a valid class or object.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following:

1. Check that the file app/code/Smile/ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory/Model/Layer/Filter/Category.php exists and that it is not corrupted. If necessary, you can try downloading the extension again and reinstalling it.

2. Check that the class Smile\ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory\Model\Layer\Filter\Category exists and that it is being loaded properly. You can do this by adding the following code at the beginning of the file app/code/Smile/ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory/Model/Layer/Filter/Category.php

   die('Class: ' . get_class($this));

If the class is not being loaded properly, you may need to check your Magento configuration or contact the extension developer for further assistance.

Here parameter 1 [$virtualRule, $callback] must be an array to callback these functions.

Here is the solution.

Goto line around 151 to 156 /module-elasticsuite-virtual-category/Model/Layer/Filter/Category.php

if ($data === false) {
    $virtualRule = $category->getVirtualRule();
    //$data = call_user_func_array([$virtualRule, $callback], [$category]);
    $cacheData = serialize($data);
    $this->cache->save($cacheData, $cacheKey, [\Magento\Catalog\Model\Category::CACHE_TAG]);
}

Change to this:

if ($data === false) {
    $virtualRule = $category->getVirtualRule();
    $data = call_user_func_array(array[$virtualRule, $callback], [$category]);
    $cacheData = serialize($data);
    $this->cache->save($cacheData, $cacheKey, [\Magento\Catalog\Model\Category::CACHE_TAG]);
}
