Hey there!

We're currently trying to migrate our Elgg 3.3 installation all the way up to the latest 6 version. Updating it using composer was no problem but when we try to run the elgg-cli we get a bunch of errors as described in the subject of this post.

The mentioned bootstrap classes HAVE implemented that interface. There were even official 6-compatible plugins by ColdTrick in that list for example, so I don't believe it's something related to the plugins.

Any ideas what could cause this?

Thanks

Kind regards

Dennis

Yeah, sure. It wasn't meant as a criticism. I know that I'm doing a loooong jump here.
I just meant, that the upgrading guide you linked only mentions versions up to Elgg 3. And apparently it's not just "update version in composer and run composer update". Especially when you have a lot of plugins installed. I guess it would be better to do it per major version as then the plugins that fail to support the new version could be identified better with less misleading error messages.
