E_notice errors. Let's post them here and help eachother out.

[kurios]

Let's collect e-notice errors here and make it a reference thread. My knowledge is (very) limited but if i can help I will.

 

My problems that i havent been able to solve from the forums are:

 

Error: Constant already defined
File: includes/application_top.php
Line: 97

 

comes up four times, Line 97 in said file reads:

define($configuration['cfgKey'], $configuration['cfgValue']);

 

Next:

Error: Undefined index: manufacturers_id
File: includes/header_tags.php
Line: 36

 

Line 36 reads:

$manStr = "select mi.manufacturers_htc_title_tag as htc_title_tag, mi.manufacturers_htc_desc_tag as htc_desc_tag, mi.manufacturers_htc_keywords_tag as htc_keywords_tag from " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . " m LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS_INFO . " mi on m.manufacturers_id = mi.manufacturers_id where m.manufacturers_id = '" . (int)$_GET['manufacturers_id'] . "' and mi.languages_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "'";

 

 

Next:

Error: Undefined index: specials_new_products_price
File: includes/boxes/scrolling_best_sellers.php
Line: 26

 

Line 26 reads:

if (intval($random_product['specials_new_products_price']) > 0) {

 

Next:

Error: Undefined offset: 5
File: includes/boxes/scrolling_best_sellers.php
Line: 44

 

Line 44 reads:

echo "pausecontent_bs[".$i."] = '".$pausecontent_bs[$i]."';

[♥FWR Media]

Error: Constant already defined
File: includes/application_top.php
Line: 97

 

These configuration settings come from the database configuration table, the error suggests that you have an entry duplicated for field configuration_key.

 

Error: Undefined index: manufacturers_id
File: includes/header_tags.php
Line: 36

 

Variable must be set before they are used like ..

 

$manufacturers_id = '';

 

Code where variables are not set is a hackers paradise.

 

 

Next:

Error: Undefined index: specials_new_products_price
File: includes/boxes/scrolling_best_sellers.php
Line: 26

 

Same as above.

 

Next:

Error: Undefined offset: 5
File: includes/boxes/scrolling_best_sellers.php
Line: 44

 

Line 44 reads:

echo "pausecontent_bs[".$i."] = '".$pausecontent_bs[$i]."';

 

The script is trying to read an array key that does not exist.

 

e.g.

 

$array = array( '0', '1', '2', '3' );

echo $array[4];

 

This key doesn't exist and therefore the error.

May I add to this? I've got a few as well.

 

Error Type: [E_NOTICE] Undefined variable: result
On line 51
File includes/sef.php

Line 51: $result .= $cat_name['categories_id'];

 

I read above where FWR said the variable must be defined. To define it, do I simply have to add $result =''; (above/below the call) and it's defined? I'm not really sure what to do.

 

 

Error Type: [E_STRICT] strtotime() [<a href='function.strtotime'>function.strtotime</a>]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for 'EDT/-4.0/DST' instead
On line 54
File includes/classes/supertracker.php

Line 54: $existing_session = false;

 

 

Error Type: [E_WARNING] fopen(/home/mysite/cachefile/categories_box-english.cache612_4100) [<a href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
On line 58
File includes/functions/cache.php

Line 58: if ($fp = @fopen($filename, 'r')) {

I assume this error means the file was deleted seconds before somebody clicked on this page, which resulted in the cache file being missing. What can I do to circumvent this, aside from suppressing the error.. which I've already done (and which is in bad practice, I know).

 

 

Error Type: [E_NOTICE] Undefined offset:  1
On line 176
File includes/classes/supertracker.php

Line 176: $referrer=$refer_data[0];

Thank you FWR Media, people like you make the forum (and plattform)work.

[kurios]

May I add to this? I've got a few as well.

 

you may indeed, i'm on vacation right now but i'm gonna try get som structure to this thread as we go along...

[spectral]

Looking forward to it. :)

 

 

My $result error really has me scratching my head. I attribute the error to the fact it isn't called under isset(), but I'm not sure how to set that. The full call:

		if( $cat_name = tep_db_fetch_array($cat_Q) ) {
         if(!$count) {
	    $result .= $cat_name['categories_id'];
	    $count = true;
	  } else {
	    $result .= '_' . $cat_name['categories_id'];
	  }

         $parent = $cat_name['categories_id'];

       } else {

         require('includes/unknown.php');

         exit();
}

 

So, around !$count - do I simply wrap that in isset()? If so, does the ! get removed?

 

Any suggestions?

String concatenation operator .= will join a string on the right of the operator to an already existent string on the left. Your issue is that the string on the left ( $result ) has not been set, the following is correct: -

 

 

if( $cat_name = tep_db_fetch_array( $cat_Q ) ) {
 $result = ''; // Set the $result variable
 if( !$count ) {
   $result .= $cat_name['categories_id'];
   $count = true;
 } else {
   $result .= '_' . $cat_name['categories_id'];
 }
 $parent = $cat_name['categories_id'];
} else {
 require('includes/unknown.php');
 exit();
}

[spectral]

When I add:

$result = ''; // Set the $result variable

 

just beneath:

if( $cat_name = tep_db_fetch_array( $cat_Q ) ) {

 

my category tree & breadcrumbs disappear.

Did I do something incorrectly?

Mine was an example based on the code shown and the error .. what is going on above or below the code snippet I haven't a clue as it is non standard code.

[spectral]

Understood. What should I be looking for in order to remedy the error?

I have the following bugs index.php page:

 new infoBox($info_box_contents);

           </td>

Can this occour due to replacing HTTP_GET_VARS and HTTP_POST_VARS directly in the code (i have the sam's clean POST and GET VARS contribution).

The E_STRICT error for KissMT was handled ages ago in the support forum but a new version has not been uploaded as yet.

 

catalog/includes/modules/kiss_meta_tags/abstracts/kiss_modules.php

 

Line 280

 

change to ..

   private static function stripStopWords( &$word ) {

[Francys]

ok that one's resolve.

Thank you.

I too have an error that I am unable to straighten out. It works well but I get this error when not suppressing output errors.

 

Error: Undefined variable: cPath_array

 

I have gone through this contribution (that throws this error) and this is the only part that is in this file. I marked the error line and included it below. Any help is appreciated.

 

// Contribution - Cateogory Description v1.04 by mightyx

error line --> $categories_desc_query = tep_db_query("select categories_description from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " where categories_id = '" . (int)$cPath_array[count($cPath_array)-1] . "' and language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "'");

 

$categories_desc = tep_db_fetch_array($categories_desc_query);

Just a quick update... Here is how just in case someone else has the same issue.

I suppressed the output error by moving this entire query out of application_top and into the index page (the only place it is needed) just above the call for the output.

Hello Pierre,

Wondering if you ever got this issue worked out because I have the same problem.

[mmimmi]

Hello Pierre,

Wondering if you ever got this issue worked out because I have the same problem.

 

Hi,

 

I got it worked by just adding a line:

$output = "";

under the line with declaretion of globals in each of the functions where $output is been used.

 

Hope tis correct.
