Does anybody have a suggestion for how to resolve this?

Go to the Plugins tab and update your plugins. Should be kept up to date especially before an OS update.

You are a lifesaver. Thankyou!

Yeah. Every plugin published by Limetech wound up being blacklisted depending upon where you looked (blacklisted in Action Centre, but not blacklisted elsewhere)

Reason is that another maintainer wound up forking the templates for them and put them into his own published repository. Backend realizes that the plugins he's effectively trying to publish (hopefully inadvertently) have the source code in a repository hosted by another user (in this case Limetech).

Looks like something similar has happened again with all bergware/dynamix plugins

Yeah. GitHub did a certificate change yesterday which originally resulted in the feed refusing to validate any of the Dynamix series of plugins. That didn't result in any blacklisting as the feed knew something was weird and aborted. Fixed that, but now some of them are getting blacklisted while others are making it through

Can I ask what exactly "blacklisted" means?

Working on the problem re Dynamix

Hello, I'm running into problems when trying to access my community applications tab. When loading the tab I'm met with this:

Checking the PHP logs shows this entry each time I try to load the tab:

[18-Sep-2025 09:17:44 America/New_York] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught TypeError: trim(): Argument #1 ($string) must be of type string, array given in /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php:311

Any ideas what's happening?

I had the same issue earlier, but then it didn't stop loading. Now it does indeed fail with the same error and the same logging.

Experiencing the same with the apps tab this morning. Error and all.

Irgendwelche Ideen, was passiert?

habe ich derzeit auch, ich denk einfach warten. in der php.ini kommt diese Fehlermeldung, keine Ahnung ob es damit zusammenhängt.

I started to have the exact same problem a few minutes ago. Made sure everything is fully up to date but it still doesn't work... :(

Same issue as Nuno Mota, Hitchcock, bartdejonckheere and thatnovaguy.

I removed the plugin and reinstalled via app page but the error persists.

I can confirm I'm experiencing the same issue this morning. I made no changes recently and changing DNS servers did not help.

Same issue here, worked 2 mins prior and suddenly I got this error.
Version 2025.08.16

Having Exact same error. Logs are the same

Me too! I was going crazy thinking I messed something up on my end lmao.

I too now having a problem accessing CA Tab
its on 2 of my unraid servers

troubleshooting with chatgpt, pointing at a github problem

Edited September 18, 20251 yr by magicman32

Confirming having issue here as well. Confirmed my instance can hit the internet and have tried removing and downloading previous instances of CA with no luck.

I also have the same issue. Tried installing a previous version but this also results in the same error.

Same issue and error message. Was working fine last night and I hadn't made any changes to my server since then. Glad I'm not the only one cause that error message is not leaving much to go on.

Ok I'm not alone, I was here for the same issue, I see in the browser console, network tab, the post return a 500 error. /plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php 500 (Internal Server Error)

For unknown reasons, your browser was unable to communicate with Community Applications running on your server.

Additional information may be within Tools, PHPSettings - View Log

Yep, I've just hit the same issue.

Add another +1 for me having this issue ~45m ago. This seems like a global issue at this point.

same issue. Ive uninstalled it via plugins then reinstalled via the apps page.

Claude is telling me to edit the files but im worried to do that lol

Fix 3: Manual Code Fix (Advanced)

If you're comfortable editing files:

bash

# Backup the original file
cp /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php.backup

# Edit line 311 to handle arrays properly
nano /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php

Find line 311 and change:

php

// FROM:
trim($variable)

// TO:
is_array($variable) ? trim(implode('', $variable)) : trim($variable)

Someone who is comfortable with doing that wanna try?

I obviously don't recommend doing this, but if you really need access before a fix is available, here is how I fixed it for now

I fixed it by changing the following on line 311~312 in the /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/community.applications/include/exec.php
file.

from this:

    if ( $o['RequiresFile'] ?? null) $o['RequiresFile'] = trim($o['RequiresFile']);
    if ( $o['Requires'] ?? null) 		$o['Requires'] = trim($o['Requires']);

to this:

	if ( $o['RequiresFile'] ?? null) {
      if ( is_array($o['RequiresFile']) ) {
        $tmp = array_map('strval',$o['RequiresFile']);
        $tmp = array_filter($tmp,function($s){ return trim($s) !== ''; });
        $o['RequiresFile'] = trim($tmp[0] ?? "");
      } else {
        $o['RequiresFile'] = trim((string)$o['RequiresFile']);
      }
    }
    if ( $o['Requires'] ?? null) {
      if ( is_array($o['Requires']) ) {
        $req = array_map('strval',$o['Requires']);
        $req = array_filter($req,function($s){ return trim($s) !== ''; });
        $o['Requires'] = trim(implode("\n",$req));
      } else {
        $o['Requires'] = trim((string)$o['Requires']);
      }
    }

Looks like it's caused by one of the app info that is being loaded. Again this is a TEMPORARY fix, I don't recommend doing this
