Question repository_hierarchy module error

Installed and did basic configuration (to see if error disappeared, turned off some). Saw error which mentions Vesta module that I have installed:
 

As far as I can see: this is not related to the Vesta modules.

Is the author of the module on the webtrees forum? I've deactivated it for now.

Do you remember where you got that module from?
Looks the same as what's mentioned here: www.webtrees.net/index.php/forum/4-custo...repository-hierarchy

Link on forum here. Went to GitHub.

first line tells: the module is repository_hierarchy. you know the author of that module.

Best is to report the issue there then...
github.com/Jefferson49/RepositoryHierarchy/issues

It may happen on your website only, to solve the bug he may be helped tremendously with a copy of your data.

Yes, it would be best to create an issue on Github and attach the Gedcom data of the individual or family, you have selected.

As the module author, I am also reading the webtrees forum posts, but only from time to time. If you file a Github issue, I will directly get an email notification.

A first draft feedback on the error is that it might be related to a repository XREF (i.e. 2 REPO @X1234@), which is used in a source citation. Maybe, the XREF is empty or the XREF (X1234) does not exist.

I will check in more detail in the next days and will try to improve the robustness of the code

Will have to turn the module on and seeing if I can replicate error. I assume you're referring to supplying the GEDCOM code for the record which was random. I happened to be on that person's record but don't remember who. So will note that when I experiment again.

Some minutes ago, I released a new version v1.3.8  of the Repository Hierarchy module. As a bugfix, the new version contains a robustness measure for XREFs in sources.

The error can be reproduced, if a source contains a wrong XREF to a repository, e.g. if X1234 does not exist in the following example, and "Source facts to show for sources within source citations" is used :

0 @I9117@ INDI
1 BAPM
2 DATE 31 JAN 1881
2 SOUR @S10698@

0 @S10698@ SOUR
1 REPO @X1234@

You can try to search for these kind of wrong repository XREFs, if you check the webtrees tree in the control panel:

Control panel / Manage family trees / Check for errors 



It might be possible to search in the browser for "Source:" or "does not exist".

I do have wacky Repository entries at the moment. Done during import (my fault not kiwitrees->webtrees). Will address these and then turn module back on and see what happens.

Since the module should be robust against wrong XREFs now, you can switch it on if you use the latest release (even if your tree contains errors)

I installed repository_hierarchy_v1.3.7
