Your LimeSurvey version: 5.4.4 (Latest)
Own server or LimeSurvey hosting: Own server (All resources are beyond what's needed)
Survey theme/template: Custom

After trying to copy a question from any survey I get this error: "Trying to property 'language' of non-object". I updated to LimeSurvey 5.4.4 and now there is no option available to copy questions.Am I missing something?

I think you'll find Copy under the Tools tab when viewing the question overview.

Thanks for replying. I don't see any copy option under the question overview tab.

That looks like a survey overview, not a question overview.

Sorry, you are rgiht. I was able to locate the copy function withing the question overview. I get the error after trying to copy a question.

 

I cannot reproduce the problem. How did you update?

I updated it manually; I downloaded the latest version and uploaded it to my server.

What's the right way to update? 

If I need to revert to a previous version to be able to update again to the latest, how should I do it?

That is one way to update but if you didn't back up the database and files first, you cannot roll it back.

Maybe back everything up and try re-uploading all files again. I suppose it's possible that there was a file-transfer error.

I did a whole system backup, so I will do that and see if these issues are resolved.

I reverted to the previous version. I'm running now version 5.4.3 and I'm still experiencing the same issue when copying a question.

Hello, was this ever resolved for you? I have the same issue, except I am operating on the cloud server. 

I am using Lime Survey online -- Lime Survey Cloud version 5.6.3:

And I keep getting a 500 language error.

I click "create survey", select the "copy" tab, and then select the survey I'm trying to copy:

It is once I click "copy" that I get the 500 error message:

I then see a new survey was created each time, but it's empty.

Thanks to anyone out there who has a solution!

Sorry, didn't realize these images wouldn't work. Here is a non-image version for easier reading:
