When trying to us await strapi.plugins["users-permissions"].services.user.sendConfirmationEmail(user); i get the below error. I do not get the error when a user registers and the system sends an email, only this database error when I call it directly from a controller I also tried from a cron.

the database debug seems like it should work. i don’t understand the error.
It dies on /node_modules/@strapi/plugin-users-permissions/server/services/user.js:51 in edit()
I am not sure what the next steps to debugging this are.

I couldn’t edit any more but I have narrowed down where the error happens.
/node_modules/@strapi/strapi/lib/services/entity-service/index.js line 220 let entity = await db.query(uid).update({

I don’t believe there is a lifestyle hook doing anything (since I think that happens before now)

i hard coded the where: { id: entityId } to where: { id: 8 } and still get the error.

the up_users table has an id column.

I found the solution, there was a beforeUpdate hook that I did not know about or could not find, the hook was performing a findOne with an unidentified id field.

I found this by adding a log.trace('findOne') into node_modules/knex/lib/query/querycompiler.js line 109 after if (this._undefinedInWhereClause) { this gave me enough trace info to see exactly where the error was happening.

With Strapi 4.4.5,

I have the same problem with lifecycles, when I delete an element that uses a component it works, but I get the exact same error.

error: Undefined binding(s) detected while compiling WHERE. Undefined column(s): query [t0.id]: where "t0".."id" =?
Error: Undefined binding(s) found while compiling WHERE. Undefined column(s): query [t0.id]: where "t0".."id" =?

Upgrading to v4.5.1 fixed the issue.

Can you check for me if this issue still exists in 4.5.6 if it does please make a issue on the strapi repo with reproduction staps
