"Array to string conversion" problem in Piwik 2.8.3

Hello,

since update to 2.8.3 the ecommerce visitor protocol on the ecommerce page do not show the visitors data anymore.

Instead, there is a notice:

Notice:Array to string conversion in /home/sites/mydomain.net/subdomains/shop/piwik/tmp/templates_c/ba/ce/7fde9185ff42055539941c3b583631e73a0b08821a97c3db94721f791a80.php on line 87

What to do now?

Best regards, fibergirl

Additional info:
This happens only if ecommerce count = 0.
For example on Monday morning, if statistics are displayed weekly.
As soon there is the first ecommerce transactions count != 0, the ecommerce visitors protocol starts appearing normal.

can you please create an issue on tracker: Issues · matomo-org/piwik · GitHub
and paste a screenshot showing the error rather than the full error message?

Thanks!

Same here. I assume there’s no github ticket yet?

first try with latest beta: I would like to test early beta and RC releases, how do I enable automatic updates to use these development versions? - Analytics Platform - Matomo

if you still have the problem then please create an issue with screenshot - thanks
