Magento 1.4 Install Errors

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
    <?php if($this->getCollection()->getSize()): ?>
            <?php if($this->getLastPageNum()>1): ?>
            <td class="pages">
                <strong><?php echo $this->__('Page:') ?></strong>
                <ol>
                <?php if (!$this->isFirstPage()): ?>
                    <li><a href="<?php echo $this->getPreviousPageUrl() ?>"><img src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/pager_arrow_left.gif') ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->__('Previous Page'); ?>" /></a></li>
                <?php endif ?>
                <?php foreach ($this->getPages() as $_page): ?>
                    <?php if ($this->isPageCurrent($_page)): ?>
                        <li><span class="on"><?php echo $_page ?></span></li>
                    <?php else: ?>
                        <li><a href="<?php echo $this->getPageUrl($_page) ?>"><?php echo $_page ?></a></li>
                    <?php endif ?>
                <?php endforeach;; ?>
                <?php if (!$this->isLastPage()): ?>
                    <li><a href="<?php echo $this->getNextPageUrl() ?>"><img src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/pager_arrow_right.gif') ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->__('Next Page'); ?>" /></a></li>
                <?php endif ?>
                </ol>
            </td>
            <?php endif; ?>
    
    <?php endif ?>
    
    Edit ./layout/catalog.xml and add:
    <block type="page/html_pager" name="product_list_toolbar_pager" template="catalog/product/list/pager.phtml" />
    
    Under
    <block type="catalog/product_list_toolbar" name="product_list_toolbar" template="catalog/product/list/toolbar.phtml">
    
    Then edit ./template/catalog/product/list/toolbar.phtml and replace code between (and including) [approx. line 44 to line 63]
    <?php if($this->getLastPageNum()>1 && is_array($this->getPages())): ?>
    .....
    <?php endif; ?>
    
    With:
    <?php echo $this->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"
