Accessing Magento SOAP Web Service API or get the WSDL in Magento Commerce 1.4.1.0, you may get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PUBLIC in /…/app/code/core/Mage/Api/Model/Server/Adapter/Soap.php on line 144

(error message is similar with compilation enabled, just inside a flat path)

This happens because of a typo in Magento Soap.php file. On line 133-135, change from:

} else {
 $this->fault('0', 'Unable to load Soap extension on the server');
 return $this;

to the patched version:

} else
 $this->fault('0', 'Unable to load Soap extension on the server');
 return $this;

Just remove an extra opening curly bracket (thanks hoerj!). You’ve now fixed Magento’s SOAP API  XML Web Service bug!

Happy API-ing!

“Magento is so slow” is one of the complaints I often hear about this online store web application (the other complaint is “Magento is too complex!”).

Here are some tips to really speed up Magento and make it blazingly fast.

#1: Enable Caching

Since Magento 1.4, Caching is enabled by default. So just don’t turn it off, unless really necessary, i.e. for development purposes.

#2: Use a PHP Accelerator such as APC

Using a PHP Accelerator is now a sane necessity. I personally use APC in my development laptop, and so does my web hosting provider.

If you use Ubuntu, installing APC is very simple:

sudo aptitude install php5-apc

It will be enable automatically.

For Magento installation in your web hosting, make sure to enable APC in php.ini configuration file by adding:

extension = apc.so

#3: Enable Magento Compiler

Magento 1.4 and newer comes with Magento Compiler by default. But many people are not aware of this feature, and that it’s extremely powerful.

To use it:

1. Make sure you have about 100 MB additional space
2. Go to Tools -> Compilation
3. Click “Run Compilation Process”

Make sure Compiler status is “Enabled”.

Now you should notice huge difference in speed of your Magento Commerce installation!

Update now, Magento Commerce Online Store version 1.4.1.0 has been released:

We are excited to announce the availability of Magento CE Version 1.4.1.0 Stable for upgrade and download.Some of the highlights of this release include: Enhanced PayPal integration (more info to follow), Change of Database structure of the Sales module to no longer use EAV, and much more.

To see a full list of features and fixed issues please visit our release notes page. Diff files are available here.

Please Note:  Since Database upgrade from EAV to flat sales might be a very heavy operation and can take up to several hours depending on number of orders and environment, please make sure to test the upgrade on a non-production environment and make sure the max_execution_time PHP option has appropriate large value that can handle this operation. We do NOT recommend upgrading a production installation of Magento directly. Please backup database and all files before upgrading. Please make sure to check file permissions before trying to upgrade through your Magento Connect Manager.We highly recommend disabling Magento cache before upgrading.

Please report all issues with this release in the bug tracker.

Important Note 1: If the Magento Compilation Module is enabled it must be disabled before attempting to upgrade. After upgrading is done, click on “Run Compilation Process” to process and enable it again.

Important Note 2: If you are running Magento version older than 1.4.x in a cluster environment and are using a shared cache (e.g. Memcached) you will now need to also make sure to configure Magento to use Database as the “slow” backend cache.

I was installing a new Magento online store when they’re preparing the release. My installation, using PEAR Downloader technique, failed because of “duplicate channel”. I retried using Magento 1.4.0.1 full distribution and succeeded.

A few hours later Magento Commerce 1.4.1.0 was released. Next time, I should just wait!

After installing Magento on your shared hosting or dedicated server you may get the following error:

There has been an error processing your request
Exception printing is disabled by default for security reasons.
Error log record number: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

There are many cases why this might happen. Check out the error details in the directory var/report to see what’s going on.

In my case, though, the report says:

a:5:{i:0;s:250:”Warning: realpath() [<a href='function.realpath'>function.realpath</a>]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect.  The script whose uid is 2397 is not allowed to access /tmp owned by uid 0  in /home/…/public_html/lib/Zend/Cache/Backend.php on line 185″;i:1;s:3891:”#0 [internal function]: mageCoreErrorHandler(2, ‘realpath() [<a …’, ‘/home/…/…’, 185, Array)

The error is caused by Magento attempting to access directory /tmp in the filesystem, but since PHP is running in safe mode, it is not allowed.

To fix it, you either disable safe_mode (NOT recommended), or patch the file magento/lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php as follows:

Edit:

protected $_options = array(
 'cache_dir' => null,

Replace with:

protected $_options = array(
 'cache_dir' => 'var/tmp',

Then create the directory tmp inside var directory in your Magento installation directory.

Now Magento should be running fine!

Installing Magento E-Commerce with Sample Data seems to have changed a bit since Magento 1.4, at least with Magento version 1.4.0.1.

You shouldn’t just copy the media/catalog folder before, but do the steps in this tutorial in order:

1. Create database
2. Load sample DB into database
3. Extract Magento
4. Run installation
5. Ensure you get to the configure database page. Magento will complain about un-writeable directories. chmod or chown these folders (app/etc, var, and media)
6. Only AFTER you get to the “configure database” page, copy the “media/catalog” from Magento sample data distribution into your magento media folder. Make sure to redo  chmod or chown on media.
7. During configure, enable rewrites. (should be enabled on ALL Magento installations for basic SEO support)
8. After installation, edit .htaccess and edit RewriteBase if you’re not on root URI

If you do step #6 before installation, you’ll never reach step #5 !

This is probably a bug in Magento, but not a very serious issue.
