BUG: Interpolate over time does not work with Int64 or Float64 #40252
Description
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
(optional) I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of pandas.
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example
pd.DataFrame({"a": [1, None, 2]}, index=pd.to_datetime([1,2,3], unit="d")).convert_dtypes().interpolate(method="time")Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\IPython\core\interactiveshell.py", line 3437, in run_code exec(code_obj, self.user_global_ns, self.user_ns) File "<ipython-input-7-4eba02001155>", line 1, in <module> pd.DataFrame({"a": [1, None, 2]}, index=pd.to_datetime([1,2,3], unit="d")).convert_dtypes().interpolate(method="time") File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\generic.py", line 7222, in interpolate new_data = obj._mgr.interpolate( File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\internals\managers.py", line 593, in interpolate return self.apply("interpolate", **kwargs) File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\internals\managers.py", line 427, in apply applied = getattr(b, f)(**kwargs) File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\internals\blocks.py", line 1931, in interpolate values=values.fillna(value=fill_value, method=method, limit=limit), File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\arrays\base.py", line 655, in fillna value, method = validate_fillna_kwargs(value, method) File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\util\_validators.py", line 367, in validate_fillna_kwargs method = clean_fill_method(method) File "C:\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\missing.py", line 82, in clean_fill_method raise ValueError(f"Invalid fill method.

Without the convert_dtypes() this works without any problems.
