Problem/Motivation

Since upgrading from 7.7 to 7.8, all attempts to save comments result in the following:

Warning: array_shift() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in _drupal_log_error() (line 266 of includes/errors.inc).
_drupal_log_error(Array, 1)
_drupal_exception_handler(Object)
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in _drupal_log_error() (line 269 of includes/errors.inc).
_drupal_log_error(Array, 1)
_drupal_exception_handler(Object)
EntityMalformedException: Missing bundle property on entity of type comment. in entity_extract_ids() (line 7389 of includes/common.inc).

I suspect that this may be related to #1067750: Let Field API fail in a tale-telling way on invalid $entity.

I can't recreate what other modules beyond core do you have installed?

Me too getting this error reported by my users.

From my watchdog:

EntityMalformedException: Missing bundle property on entity of type comment. in entity_extract_ids() (line 7389 of /home/abc/public_html/includes/common.inc).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add comment to a node.
2. Boom, u will goto error page.

Comment is still added though.

Happens on random nodes, some doesn't trigger the error. Unsure whats wrong.

Again what contrib modules do have installed - I can not recreate on a clean install of drupal.

This is up on my production site, so the list of modules is extensive. It is also a site that was upgraded from Drupal 6.22 to Drupal 7.4, then to 7.7 and most recently to 7.8. I've had other issues where the upgrade path got in the way.

I'll have to set up a new instance and start disabling modules, see what I can find that conflicts.

Contrary to ktleow's experience though, my comments are being created, but with blank bodies. So I end up with comments that look like this:

http://splicer.com/comment/4604#comment-4604

The email I get that notifies me of the comment has the text of the comment, but the comment itself has no body.

Actually, ktleow, if you could post your list of contrib modules, we can narrow down the list of ones to look at, by which ones we both have enabled. (I'm including Core modules in my list.)

I see a couple of red flags that came up while typing out the list, but I'll disable those and report on the results in a separate comment.

Disabled AJAX Comments (I can't tell what that's supposed to do anyway) and got no change.
Disabled Comment Notify, and saving comments works again.

It appears that this is a duplicate of #1273256: EntityMalformedException: Missing bundle property on entity of type comment. in entity_extract_ids() which is itself a duplicate (though not with the same symptoms) of #1255250: Remove some internal helper functions, add data to comment_load, fully load comments before alerting.

Applied patch found at http://drupal.org/node/1255250#comment-4944710 which corrected the problem.

In my defense, #1273256: EntityMalformedException: Missing bundle property on entity of type comment. in entity_extract_ids() was posted at roughly the same time I posted this, and the specific error is not listed in #1255250: Remove some internal helper functions, add data to comment_load, fully load comments before alerting. My searches therefore didn't find either of these issues.

I'm therefore closing this as duplicate. I'm leaving "component" as comment.module because the comment.module queue is a natural place to look to find the solution to this issue. Changing category to "support request" since the bug is not in comment.module. If my thinking is wrong about that I apologize and leave it to the maintainer to move it to the Comment Notify queue and/or change the category back to "bug report".

This happend to me when my anonymous user in the table "users" did not have the id 0! This can happen if you import a backup sql file. Try setting it to 0.
