Problems in attribute controller - no option values

[miriam_t]

Hello,

I'm stuck - in my local xampp installation everything is working fine. But in production system the attribute controller does not work!

I can insert new option names and corresponding values. But in the attribute controller the field beside the option name remains empty - no field with option values appears after I chose an option name.

If i try to save the page without option value I get an error message - Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /mnt/web8/xxx/attributes_controller.php on line 190 -
which is probably normal without any option value submitted. Any help is highly appreciated ;-) Where is my option value field?

Mhm... I am not sure what caused the problem - after several tryouts I reinstalled a backup and the error was gone.

I just had the same problem. The solution was simple here: I had forgotten to select an option name and option value before hitting the insert button. (still it took me half an hour with the debugger to find that out)
In this case the array field $_POST['values_id'] is not defined (that is what the error message refers to) and the foreach() command can not be executed.

I found this problem mentioned a couple of times (not only here but also in the german zen-cart forum)
It might help to check if $_POST['values_id'] is defined and create a more specific error message in case it is not.

Note: the error is a bit difficult to spot when only a single attribute with a single option value exists in the shop (which can often be the case when downloads are sold)
Then it looks as if the option value is already selected when in fact it is not.

Thanks for listening!
