hi there,

i am not 100% sure this is the reason for that bug , only asumptions , but here it goes.

step to reproduce :

-create a content type (research axes) with a entityreference field that reference that very same content type ( reference the parent axes )
- create a block view that display this content type with a contextual filter for that entityreference field , and a filter null on that entity referenced field . the intention here is to display all parent axes.
That works very well
- that parent axes concept being not necessary anymore, i have deleted that field .

what happens :

Error: Call to a member function getContextDefinition() on null in Drupal\views\Plugin\views\argument\ArgumentPluginBase->getContextDefinition() (line 1341 of core/modules/views/src/Plugin/views/argument/ArgumentPluginBase.php).
Drupal\views\Plugin\views\argument\ArgumentPluginBase->getContextDefinition() (Line: 117)
Drupal\views\Plugin\Derivative\ViewsBlock->getDerivativeDefinitions(Array) (Line: 101)
Drupal\Component\Plugin\Discovery\DerivativeDiscoveryDecorator->getDerivatives(Array) (Line: 87)
Drupal\Component\Plugin\Discovery\DerivativeDiscoveryDecorator->getDefinitions() (Line: 284)

The back office became unaccessible.
The whole site is crashed.
Cache rebuild would not do
No other options found but get a backup

what to expect:
Anything that do not crash the whole thing or better logs to figure out what's wrong

Best regards,
mathieu

    As part of the Bug Smash Initiative, we are triaging issues that are marked "Postponed (maintainer needs more info)". This issue was marked "Postponed (maintainer needs more info)" more a year ago.

    Since there was no additional information provided since it was requested last year, I'm marking the issue "Closed (cannot reproduce)". If anyone can provide complete steps to reproduce the issue (starting from "Install Drupal core"), document those steps in the issue summary and set the issue status back to "Active" [or "Needs Work" if it has a patch, etc.].

    Thanks!

    Adding #11 as .patch for easier deployment.
    I'm having the same issue on Drupal 10.2.6 when importing config. I still cannot figure out how to reproduce the issue.
