I get now often following error after git pull today:

[codejet]

highly advise staying off the beta releases, the idea is great for testers maybe not so great for ppl wanting stable components

[Boris Dragosani]

Sorry if I bother some one to much, I am aware of the problems of the main branch and I know, that I am using the main branch and it can destroy my forum, my computer, create singularity and wipe the universe. I thought I can help , if I see such errors and do not have time to look on it deeply just now, than I write it here. If this is wrong place or no body find it useful, I will not write it here anymore.

Although it seems you might have an invalid category in your database.

[Boris Dragosani]

Thank you for the reply! It has fixed the problem, and it was indeed invalid category, I need also check the database, able somewhere is a invalid reference ...
