Magento behaves wierd when setting default view value flag - php

I'm currently trying to integrate magento into an erp system.
I wrote for this an connector but having issues in saving data.
This is my code
if(!empty($currentTranslation['products_description']))
{
$product->setDescription($currentTranslation['products_description']);
}
else
if(!$default)
{
$product->setDescription(false);
}
else
{
$product->setDescription($primaryDefaultValues['desclong']);
}
(example for setting description)
If I leave a field in for example english unset, it should not set the value.
default is always false for each store view so it sets the description to false.
(I checked this on the double)
If I look at the object just before saving I can see the default Values of the Admin view.
I can also see that the description is set to false.
But when I store the data it sets the default value into the field and does not set the flag use default view.
What am I doing wrong?
I also already tried 0 and null.
But nothing worked.
Please help.

I solved the issue.
It seemed that I had an issue with the cache system.

Magento 2 programmatically update product save empty value to product attribute

Updating existing product's (Magento CE 2.1.5) attributes with values that taken from csv file, when values are not empty string there is no problem, but when try to save empty string, the product attributes value has not been updated
$product->setWidth("");
$product->save();
The result after product save is that the attribute value stays the same value, that was before update.
Tried several other methods, that where mentioned elsewhere, but no result
$product->setWidth(""); //does nothing
$product->setData("width",""); //does nothing
$product->unsetData("width"); //does nothing
$product->setWidth(new \Zend_Db_Expr('')); //does nothing
$product->setData("width",null); //does nothing
$product->save();
So question is what is correct way to do it? So wonder what is the correct way to set magento 2.x attribute emtpy?
The attribute took the "default" value if we try to set it to null.
Use $product->setWidth(' ') instead, basically to set a space rather than null would solve the problem.
When gathering the data, use if (!empty($product->getWidth())) { ... }.

Magento 404 on Admin Page

About a week ago, I was working in a test environment for a new site. I left for an hour, came back, and now cannot get to the admin page, as in ‘http://magento.localhost.com/admin’ results in a No Route 404. I am the only one with access to this, it is not live in any sense. I am using VBox with Ubuntu to host the environment. In terms of possible fixes, so far I have tried…
Making sure core_store, core_store_group, core_website, and customer_group table ids are set to 0 (as described in this and many other articles - http://www.nude-webdesign.com/fix-for-magento-admin-error-404-page-not-found/)
Playing with the /app/code/core/Mage/Core/Controller/Varien/Front.php method _isAdminFrontNameMatched to display the adminPath (it’s ‘admin’)
Cleared the var folder, emptied browser cache. Site’s caching was and is turned off.
Adding 'index.php' to the url still results in a 404.
As per Magento Admin 404, the file 'app/etc/use_cache.ser' doesn't exist for me.
On the day of this occurring, I was simply playing around with some layout files I had copied to a module I made and the theme’s media queries (all of which were reverted to their original state even before this problem started to occur).
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is wrong here? Any other possible reasons this could be happening?
Thanks for anything.
EDIT 1:06pm 9/10/2013: In response to Alan Storm's method of retrieving controller names that Standard.php is looking for, I was returned many "missing" controller files. However, after downloading a fresh copy of 1.7.0.2 to find those files, they weren't present in their either. Here is my output from Alan's var_dump suggestion in Standard.php:
..."/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Index/controllers/Adminhtml/Controller.php"

Resolved 3:39pm 9/10/2013: Ok, it's fixed albeit rather bluntly. I took the output of Alan Storm's var_dump suggestion to mean I had created an error somewhere in the core code pool (which is not something I intended on doing, screwing with the default code that is). Unfortunately for sake of exact learning, I then replaced it all with the default core code pool of 1.7.0.2. This was done before Alan updated his original answer with more suggestions that I never investigated. Thanks Alan, you're rad.
A no route 404 error usually indicates Magento can't find the controller file it thinks it should load (usually due to a misconfiguration)
The easiest way to diagnose this is to hop to _validateControllerClassName
#File: app/code/core/Mage/Core/Controller/Varien/Router/Standard.php
protected function _validateControllerClassName($realModule, $controller)
{
$controllerFileName = $this->getControllerFileName($realModule, $controller);
if (!$this->validateControllerFileName($controllerFileName)) {
return false;
}
$controllerClassName = $this->getControllerClassName($realModule, $controller);
if (!$controllerClassName) {
return false;
}
// include controller file if needed
if (!$this->_includeControllerClass($controllerFileName, $controllerClassName)) {
return false;
}
return $controllerClassName;
}
and drop some logging or var_dumps around the return false statments. This should tell you which files Magento is looking for and can't find — it's usually enough to point to the problem.
if (!$this->validateControllerFileName($controllerFileName)) {
var_dump($controllerFileName);
return false;
}
$controllerClassName = $this->getControllerClassName($realModule, $controller);
if (!$controllerClassName) {
var_dump($controllerClassName);
return false;
}
// include controller file if needed
if (!$this->_includeControllerClass($controllerFileName, $controllerClassName)) {
var_dump("Couldn't include: $controllerFileName");
return false;
}
Update: It's normal for Magento look for the controller file in multiple places — every module that registered as containing adminhtml controller files needs to be checked.
However, almost all the controller files being looked for are named /Controller.php. For the default /admin index page this should be IndexController.php. This makes me think your system thinks it's supposed to look for a controller with a blank name, (likely the default controller value since /admin (and not admin/index) is the URL you're using)
There's myriad reasons this could happen — many revolving around a core file being changed or a configuration node in a module set to the wrong value. If the solutions below don't work for you you'll need to try diff-ing your code base vs. a clean one, disabling every custom module and if that fixing things turn modules back on until the problem module is found, or dive deep into debugging Magento routing code to figure out why your system is unhappy.
One common cause for this behavior is an invalid value (or no value at all) being set for a custom admin path at
System -> Configuration -> Admin -> Admin Base URL -> Use Custom Admin Path
If the value for "custom admin path" is blank, or contains and additional /, this could be interfering with the routing.
Since you can't access the admin, try running the following SQL query
select * from core_config_data where path like '%custom_path%';
...
292 default 0 admin/url/use_custom_path 1
293 default 0 admin/url/custom_path admin/
If you see results similar to the above, or admin/url/custom_path is blank/not-present but admin/url/use_custom_path is still 1 — then that's your problem.
Try deleting these configuration values (admin/url/use_custom_path) and (admin/url/use_custom_path) from core_config_data.
If that doesn't apply to your system, per my blank controller theroy my best guess would be for some unknown reason the code at
#File: app/code/core/Mage/Core/Controller/Varien/Router/Admin.php
public function fetchDefault()
{
// set defaults
$d = explode('/', $this->_getDefaultPath());
$this->getFront()->setDefault(array(
'module' => !empty($d[0]) ? $d[0] : '',
'controller' => !empty($d[1]) ? $d[1] : 'index',
'action' => !empty($d[2]) ? $d[2] : 'index'
));
}
is populating the controller key with a blank value.
In my case, my admin was giving me 404 because there's no store set.
I solved it by running the following query
SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0;
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
UPDATE `core_store` SET store_id = 0 WHERE code='admin';
UPDATE `core_store_group` SET group_id = 0 WHERE name='Default';
UPDATE `core_website` SET website_id = 0 WHERE code='admin';
UPDATE `customer_group` SET customer_group_id = 0 WHERE customer_group_code='NOT LOGGED IN';
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;
SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=1;
You can check if you get the below error logged in var/log/system.log
ERR (3): Recoverable Error: Argument 1 passed to Mage_Core_Model_Store::setWebsite() must be an instance of Mage_Core_Model_Website, null given, called in /.../app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/App.php on line 634 and defined in /.../app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Store.php on line 395
Before anything check your configuration file ( app/etc/local.xml) and make sure that you have "admin" as value for the frontName tag.
ex.:
<adminhtml>
<args>
<frontName><![CDATA[admin]]></frontName>
</args>
</adminhtml>
Usually when you try http://yoursite.com/admin it gives you the admin area
Try using an url like that http://yoursite.com/index.php/admin
and if it works probably you need to only modify the rewrite rules or follow the suggestions (see the link below)
I got this problem on a shop with custom admin url www.shop.com/customadminroute/ and System -> Configuration -> Web -> URL options -> Add Store Code to Urls: Enabled
In this case the following module should fix it:

How to turn off global features in zen carts options_name_manager.php

I have been looking through code and forums for hours. Does any one know how to make it so that by default the Global features drop down is set to off on the options_name_manager file so that the global features are hidden. I have a customer who doesn't need to see those options and so I want to hide it.
I have done some extensive googling and come up blank. Any help is appreciated. I have even tried hard coding the variable which changes the drop down but doesn't hide the section that it needs to!!
I admin/options_name_manager.php on line 13 in 1.3.9 (right above where the $_GET['action'] is done) do this:
$_SESSION['option_names_values_copier'] = 0;
-- updated based on changed requirements
If you want to default it to off but retain the ability to change it, do something more like this:
if (!isset($_SESSION['option_names_values_copier'])) {
$_SESSION['option_names_values_copier'] = 0;
}
Then the setting will only be made if it isn't already set.

Magento create new product template

I really like the magento structure but finding things is very hard ;)
My problem is that I have a custom attribute. By calling ‘create new product’ this field should be prefilled with an automatic value like the entity-id. This should only happen within the create new function.
I’m absolutely not capable of finding the corresponding code, where the initial values are set, can anyone give me a hint? (a script must run, not a default value :))
Thanks a lot and grettings,
Matthias
You can find the information needed to find the corresponding code in this post:
Finding Correct Templates and Blocks in Magento
Simply change the default attribute of the field to what you need it to be.
The answer to my problem is overwritting the Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Product_Edit_Tab_Attributes block.
Within this block, you can use a simple if condiition. the following line has to be replaced by the if:
$values[$attribute->getAttributeCode()] = $attribute->getDefaultValue();
new solution:
if($attribute->getAttributeCode() == 'my_attribute_code') {
$values[$attribute->getAttributeCode()] = SET_THE_OWN_VALUE;
} else {
$values[$attribute->getAttributeCode()] = $attribute->getDefaultValue();
}
That's all :)
Hope this helps some one else, too !!!

My store returns no code id and breaks 404 error. Magento

I know what the issue is but I dont know how to fix it. I just migrated my magento store locally and I guess possibly some data may have been lost when transferring the DB. the DB is very large. Anyhow, when I login to my admin page, I get a 404 error, page was not found.
I debugged the issue and got down to the wire. The exception is thrown in Mage/Core/Model/App.php. Line 759 to be exacted. The following is a snippet.
Mage/Core/Model/App.php
if (empty($this->_stores[$id])) {
$store = Mage::getModel('core/store');
/* #var $store Mage_Core_Model_Store */
if (is_numeric($id)) {
$store->load($id); // THIS ID IS FROM Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID and its empty which causes the error
} elseif (is_string($id)) {
$store->load($id, 'code');
}
if (!$store->getCode()) { // RETURNS FALSE HERE BECAUSE NO ID Specified
$this->throwStoreException();
}
$this->_stores[$store->getStoreId()] = $store;
$this->_stores[$store->getCode()] = $store;
}
The store returns null because $id is null so it therefore does not load any model which explains why it returns false when calling getCode()
[EDIT]
If you want clarification, please ask for more before voting my post down. Remember I am still trying to get help not get neglected.
I am using Version 1.4.1.1. When I type in the URL for admin, I get a 404 page. I walked through the code thouroughly and found that the Model MAGE_CORE_MODEL_STORE::getCode(); Returns Null which triggers the exception. and ends the script. I do not have any other detail. I further troubleshooted the issue by checking the database and that is what the screen shot is. Showing that there is infact data in the Code Colunn.
So my question is why is the Model returning a empty column when the column clearly has a value. What can I do to further troubleshoot and figure out why its not working
[EDIT UPDATE NEW]
I did some research. the reason its returning NULL is because the store ID is null being passed
Mage::getStoreConfigFlag('web/secure/use_in_adminhtml', Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID); // THIS IS THE ID being specified
Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID has no value in it, so this method throws the exception. Not sure why how to fix this.
You need to change the ID of the admin store, website and store_group to zero. It is due to a mysql import which didn't reset autoincrement values and Magento hard-coding the fallback store ID to zero.
Refer to this answer for more information.
I know this is an older post but I struggled with this exact same thing for a couple of days before figuring it out. I am not sure if it's something to do with the way the DB was backed up but when I was trying to import a Magento 1.9.x database from a backup I was getting all kinds of issues like this. I was able to fix the 404 by following the above steps but then there were tons of other ID's that were incremented wrong all over the DB causing all kinds of issues with products, menus, etc. The solution was to add this at the beginning of the SQL file
SET SQL_MODE="NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO";
SET #OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=##CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT;
SET #OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=##CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS;
SET #OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=##COLLATION_CONNECTION;SET NAMES utf8;
SET #OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS=##UNIQUE_CHECKS, UNIQUE_CHECKS=0;
SET #OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=##FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
SET #OLD_SQL_MODE=##SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE='NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO';
SET #OLD_SQL_NOTES=##SQL_NOTES, SQL_NOTES=0;
and add this at the end of the file
SET SQL_MODE=#OLD_SQL_MODE;
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=#OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS;
SET UNIQUE_CHECKS=#OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS;
SET CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=#OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT;
SET CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=#OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS;
SET COLLATION_CONNECTION=#OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION;
SET SQL_NOTES=#OLD_SQL_NOTES;
prior to importing. Once I did that, the import went fine and all ID's were as they should be. Hope this helps someone out of a pinch as it did me.
Thanks,
Tony
