Summary

The MokoWaaS API install endpoint (/api/index.php/v1/mokowaas/install) returns a 500 error due to a method signature mismatch.

Error

Compile Error: Declaration of Moko\Component\MokoWaaS\Api\Controller\InstallController::execute(): void
must be compatible with Joomla\CMS\MVC\Controller\BaseController::execute($task)

Cause

InstallController::execute() is declared with (): void return type but Joomla BaseController::execute($task) requires a $task parameter.

Fix

Update the method signature to:

public function execute($task): void

Impact

Blocks remote extension deployment via the MokoWaaS API. Unable to install packages from Gitea releases to the dev Joomla instance programmatically.
