Clicking the the “export” button on https://[our-forum]/admin/reports/posts sends a message that it failed. I’m do not know whether it ever worked for us. I see in the error logs:

```plaintext
Job exception: undefined method `data' for nil:NilClass

```

with the backtrace:

```plaintext
/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/regular/export_csv_file.rb:149:in `report_export'
/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/regular/export_csv_file.rb:48:in `each'
/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/regular/export_csv_file.rb:48:in `block in execute'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/2.3.0/csv.rb:1282:in `open'
/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/regular/export_csv_file.rb:46:in `execute'
/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/base.rb:153:in `block (2 levels) in perform'

```

Is that a known issue? Is there something we can do to figure out a config issue on our side? Or can other people reproduce this with `v1.9.0.beta11 +11`?

Cheers, Axel.
