I'm attempting to create a new product via an install script, but running into some issues, more specifically when trying to save the product.

The error I'm getting is: Call to a member function getStoreIds() on a non-object

I've isolated the error to when the product saves (see below)

When saving the product the function _saveAttributeValue is called from Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Abstract

Within this function the following line is throwing an error $storeIds = Mage::app()->getStore($storeId)->getWebsite()->getStoreIds(true);

This is because when calling Mage::app()->getStore() from an installer script 0 is returned instead of proper store (see: Install script to get access to root category id)

Is there any way around this where I can the product to save

  • it solves the immediate error but then causes a Invalid category IDs. while saving the product since $store->getRootCategoryId() returns null Commented Jul 29, 2014 at 0:29
  • my mistake it seems that another module is causing this error, will look at it soon Commented Jul 29, 2014 at 13:45
  • thanks! the other error was being triggered by a 3rd party module extending the backend model for entity_attribute Commented Jul 29, 2014 at 19:02
