Fatal Error on 5.2.2 when adding new fields

To follow up on this, I still have no resolution. After also going through this thread my result is:

..."email_address" string(3) "rte" string(4) "text" string(6) "select" string(11) "fluid_field" string(12) "multi_select" string(8) "duration" string(9) "file_grid"

again showing that file_grid is what is causing the issue. I know this is a new fieldtype, but I can’t find it. It doesn’t have a folder in my system/ee/ellislab/addons folder, its not shown in the core add ons page (neither is grid or relationships, not sure if that matters), it just doesn’t seem to exist in this 5.2.2 site. I really need to solve this, can someone help?

I did a fresh install of 5.2.2 and also don’t see a file_grid fieldtype folder, so it must live elsewhere. I can’t find it. My main site didn’t show file_grid in the field types table, so I added it, but still get the same error on add field page.

I found the file_grid field files, in the grid field type folder. So that’s that. Still no help for my error.

Hi there, I’ve faced the same issue, please help.

Thanks in advance https://popup-builder.com/

Hi There. Same problem here.

Hi There. Same problem here.

I also have this issue. I tried updating to EE v5.2.6 but this did not solve the issue

It manifests itself in the CP when I try to edit a channel /cp/channels/edit/<channel_number>

I added a try catch to line 681 of Grid_lib.php

try {
    if ( ! $fieldtype->accepts_content_type('grid') ||
     ($this->content_type != 'channel' && $field_short_name == 'relationship'))
    {
     unset($fieldtypes[$field_short_name], $compatibility[$field_short_name]);
    }

   } catch (\Throwable $th) {
    var_dump($fieldtype);
    echo "field name " . $field_short_name . "
";
   }

I get

> bool(false) field name file_grid

Do I need to reinstall grid and if so how?

** Hoorah! ** I looked in exp_fieldtypes on another site that I have that is using ee5.1.2 and found that there was an entry called file_grid which is missing in the site with the error.

I simply added the following record to the exp_fieldtypes table:

30 file_grid 1.0  n

The number 30 is just the auto increment for the record. I didn’t even have to work out what to do with the settings. I hope that this helps someone else.
