Hi Syed Anwar

This error sounds like the one reported here https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1816840

And has been fixed got 18.10.1 via this patch https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/9609

Also version 18.10 is out of support so you might want to think of upgrading to a 19.10 or greater version

Cheers

Robert
