Movable Type Knowledge Base: Can't Call Method

Question

I get an error message that says Can't call method "[something]" on an undefined value.

Answer

Can't call method "maketext"

Make sure you uploaded the following files and folders, all in ASCII mode:

extlib/I18N/ (and everything inside)
extlib/Locale/ (and everything inside)
lib/MT/L10N.pm
lib/MT/L10N/en_us.pm

Can't call method "id" on an undefined value at lib/MT.pm line 770

Please upgrade to the latest version of Movable Type - there was a bug in previous versions where a Tag error in a Template would cause this error to appear, instead of the true error about the Tag causing the problem.
