RSS poster bot fatal error

[OUTL4W]

I keep running into this fatal error below when trying to run the rss psoter bot task.

Fatal error: Call to a member function query_first() on a non-object in /home/public_html/includes/class_bootstrap.php(103) : eval()'d code on line 3

That line is where the hook global_bootstrap_init_start is executed, so the problem is in a plugin using that hook location. I'm not sure why it would only happen when you run the rss poster task, that seems strange.

not sure why either....when clicking "preview feed" within the feed, everything works fine but when running it manually I get the above error.

I finally took the plunge and upgraded to 4.2.2 pl3 ran into the time zone issue which I finally fixed...but I am still having this posterbot issue.

Lets do this, disable plugins via the includes/config.php file.

To do that open your includes/config.php file and below <?php add the following.

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

So it looks like this:
<?php
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

Use a editor like notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.6.8.html) to edit any files, don't use Notepad or Wordpad.

If that fixes the issue enable plugins again by adding // before the line you added, then navigate to ACP --> Plugins & Products --> Manage Products and disable one mod at a time until you find the one causing the issue.

Once you find the culprit, post in that mods thread what the issue is, and maybe someone in that thread can help. :)
