Magento 1.4 Install Errors

Posted on By Benjamin L.
We imagine there is going to be a few, but here are the ones we have come across so far:
  • 1

    Unsupported operand types ... Hostname.php Solution: Comment out line +471 in ./lib/Zend/Validate/Hostname.php 
    #$regexChars += include($this->_validIdns[strtoupper($this->_tld)]);
  • 2

    Invalid mode for clean Solution: Remove ./app/code/core/Zend/Cache/
  • 3

    Invalid argument supplied for foreach ... toolbar.phtml This is due to a change of the way the pagination works, usually that the template is missing the relevant XML block to load and the subsquent PHP call Solution: Create a new file ./template/catalog/product/list/pager.phtml and enter 
    getCollection()->getSize()): ?>
        getLastPageNum()>1): ?>
        
            __('Page:') ?>
            
      
            isFirstPage()): ?>
                
    1. <?php echo $this->__('Previous Page'); ?>
      2. 
            
            getPages() as $_page): ?>
                isPageCurrent($_page)): ?>
                    
      3. 
                
                    
      4. 
                
            
            isLastPage()): ?>
                
    4. <?php echo $this->__('Next Page'); ?>
      5.
    Edit ./layout/catalog.xml and add:
    Under
    Then edit ./template/catalog/product/list/toolbar.phtml and replace code between (and including) [approx. line 44 to line 63] 
    getLastPageNum()>1 && is_array($this->getPages())): ?>
.....
    With: 
    getPagerHtml(); ?>

    During installation, blank page after database details Solution: Albeit not a solution, more of a hack. 1) You get to the administrator stage and the page is blank 2) Rename ./app/etc/local/xml to ./app/etc/local.xml.old 3) Reload the page, and it the fields will appear. 4) Restore ./app/etc/local.xml 5) Fill in the fields as usual and click submit 6) The next page will be blank, but the information will have saved correctly.

    There has been an error processing your request #1424782433 Errors are hidden by default in 1.4, so you will need to open the file using command line or FTP. Solution: Open./var/report/1424782433/ OR If you are developing, add this to your .htaccess file 
    SetEnv MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE "true"

    Can you help me? Thanks, Jana

    • Hi Jana,

      I would be inclined to check ./lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php

      And replace

      protected $_options = array(
        'cache_dir' => 'null',

      With:

      protected $_options = array(
        'cache_dir' => 'tmp/',

      Then create a tmp directory in your Magento root folder with 755 permissions with the correct owner/group.

  • ok, I changed this, but I get a new error:

    Notice: Use of undefined constant tmp - assumed 'tmp' in /www/htdocs/w00b93b1/shopneu/lib/Zend/Cache.php on line 152

    Trace:

    #8 /www/htdocs/w00b93b1/shopneu/index.php(78): Mage::run('', 'store')
    #9 {main}

  • PS. If I write 'tmp/' I get the failure: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/', expecting ')' in /www/htdocs/w00b93b1/shopneu/lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php on line 91

    I change to `tmp', than I get the other message with failure

  • I'm afraid we would have to debug it manually to help you identify the error.

    Get in touch if you need further assistance

  • The 3rd example shows a new page "pager.phtml" which contains incomplete code. This will throw out parsing errors (eg: 

    <img src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/pager_arrow_left.gif') ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->__('Previous P$

    )

    When all's present and correct, the solution works a treat 🙂

    • Very true! I just used nano and copied the contents without line wrapping! I'll update the text now!

  • Hello,
    I'm using Toolbar block outside magento, in a custom php file.
    In magento 1.3.2.4, the following code works great

    $toolbar = Mage::getSingleton('core/layout')->createBlock('catalog/product_list_toolbar',microtime());

    echo $toolbar->toHtml();

    However, in magento 1.4.1.0, the toolbar is rendered without pager.

    Could you please tell me what I need to do to get it work in magento 1.4?

    Thanks

    hello,

    i am running into the same trouble as jana. what is the solution for getting it fixed?

    Im getting this when enabling the new version: Fatal error: Call to a member function getSize() on a non-object in /home/admin/public_html/app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/html/pager.phtml on line 34

    and same error on toolbar.phtml too
    whats wrong?

  • I'm trying to get this uploader working for 1.4.2(stable) -- this doesn't seem to be working -- it's only uploading a single category. However, I'm not getting an error message.

    I'm unclear if the recommendations above are meant to resolve this general problem or if they are meant to address a specific error message.
