The following exception is thrown:

 Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '64541-14-1' for key 'IDX_GROUPSCATALOG_PRODUCT_IDX_ENTITY_ID_GROUP_ID_STORE_ID' 

I think it's nearly the same problem like the one with categories you fixed yesterday.

Eg
Notice: Array to string conversion in /app/code/community/Netzarbeiter/GroupsCatalog2/Model/Entity/Attribute/Source/Customergroup/Withdefault.php on line 70

The getOptionText method explodes the string before checking to see if it is a string

        if (strpos($value, ','))
        {
            $value = explode(',', $value);
        }

These notice messages rapidly fills up the system.log :-)

If I try to reindex using the gui, it gives an error that it can't reindex. If I try to reindex using the shell, it gives me the following:

This is due to that the indexer tries to import 90000 indexes with one query.

In file:

app/code/community/Netzarbeiter/GroupsCatalog2/Model/Indexer/Abstract.php

Replace:

$this->_getWriteAdapter()->insertMultiple($this->_getIndexTable(), $data);

With:

$chunks = array_chunk($data,1000);
foreach($chunks as $chunk)
{
    $this->_getWriteAdapter()->insertMultiple($this->_getIndexTable(), $chunk);
}

And that worked for me.

Hallo,

ich habe die Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2 in Magento 1.6.2 installiert.
Nun funktioniert die SEO Sitemap nicht mehr.
Kannst du mir weiterhelfen?

Besten Dank

Frank Nerger

Make it possible to load items on some pages visible for every customer (e.g. homepage), but once they go to a category or product list page they are forced to log in.

I have downloaded and installed this pluging and all is working, just for one small exeption, when I put a product to the shopping cart, it does not give me the customer group price when this extension is installed, it gives me the normal price.

Any other that has experinced this or have and idea of what i can do?

Hi,

I am having 3 categories, Among them one of the category “Golf Clubs” will be accessible to certain user groups namely “Club members”. But the category should be visible when i click that it leads to a login page.

General Configuration:

Category Mode : Show category by Default
Hide Categories from : None

Category Configuration for “Golf Clubs” Category:

Hide from Groups: None
Show to groups : Club members

I think i made some mistake. Please correct and help me o this.

I think your module was the only free module which supports my needs. Please let me know the reply ASAP.

If I have a root category that is visible only to a certain group, but then I choose to remove all restrictions from a sub-category under it I'm finding that I still can' t access that subcategory from within a custom layout or {{block}} rule. I can access the sub-category via it's URL but I can't access it from XML or {{block}} syntax.

So as an example, say I have a CMS page which contains some new products called up like this:

{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="262" template="catalog/guest/new_products_homepage.phtml"}}

Then I set the root category to be visible only to logged in users and this new products category is set to be visible to all.
If I then visit the CMS page that holds the block it triggers an "Invalid category" exception.

    a:5:{i:0;s:17:"Invalid category.";i:1;s:3685:"#0 /var/data/mysite/web/app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Layer.php(191): 
Mage::throwException('Invalid categor...')

In the stack trace there's no sign of Groups catalog , but I can work around the problem by disabling Groups catalog so I'm sure it's coming from here.

My current solution is to set a registry key from my layout xml files that I then use to disable groups catalog on specific pages, so a tweak in Data.php like this

        public function isModuleActive($store = null, $checkAdmin = true)
    {
        $store = Mage::app()->getStore($store);
        if ($checkAdmin && $store->isAdmin())
        {
            return false;
        }
        //benz001
        //Check the registry for a disable flag and honour it
        if(Mage::registry('wh_disable_groups_ext') == 1){           
            //We don't care about stores here as we expect this to come from a store level template
            return false;
        }   
        //end benz001

        $setting = $this->getConfig('is_active', $store);
        return (bool) $setting;
    }

Then I create a new block to set/unset registry keys so I can trigger it from a theme.

So I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature request:

1. having an exception triggering response to inserting a {{block}} or seems like a bug,
2. being able to deliberately 'punch holes' in the groups catalog system from the layout files feels very much like a useful new feature that themes can make use of.

Hi,

I'm setting up our second store and came up with a strange issue.
When I enable 1 product to show up in 2 root categories (thus in 2 stores) in every store I have to login to see the product. These products are setup to be viewable by everyone.
When I disable the module in one of these stores for that specific store the problem has gone and I can view the product normal.

If I have a product which is only in 1 root category / store there is absolutely no problem. It only shows up after enabling the product in another store/category.

Does this sound familiar? (hope so...)

gr,

We want to uninstall the plugin and we run the db queries you provided and deleted all instances of the extension in the ftp. There is no error message only a 503 browser error and this sentence from magento :

Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Any ideas? How can we completely remove it? Our website is down and we cant access the admin...

I installed module in a 1.7.0.2 site (site is upgraded from 1.6).

I get the following error in frontend:

If I unistall module, site is back to normal.

Any ideas?

Hello Vinai

I am using Mangeto 1.7.0.2, and I have encountered an issue that the category on the left side bar is not showing. It only shows one category, but not the other. I checked every set up and they are the same.

Here is the value of configuration:

Enable Module: enable
Product Mode: Hide product by default
Show Products to: Wholesale
Category Mode: Hide product by default
Show Products to: Wholesale
How to handle guests accessing a hidden entity: redirect to target route
Redirect route for guests: customer/account/login
How to handle logged in customers accessing a hidden entity: redirect to target route
Redirect route for logged in customers: b2b (CMS URL)
Display a message when a hidden entity is accessed?: Yes

And I have checked all the categories and products are set to "USE DEFAULT" value
Right now, only one category is showing, but not the rest when I login to the account.

Could you give me some advise how to solve this problem?

Sharon

We have a problem with this extension implemented at the webshop of one of our larger account Paula's Choice. Webshop details: Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2 version 0.2.4. on Magento ver. 1.6.2.0 (currently in the process of upgrading to 1.7.2). They run a true European webshop selling cosmetics.

They use your extension to shield off products and categories from specific (consumer) customer groups.
The problem occurs in the following situation:
customer is logged out (guest) and places product Y and product Z in shopping cart (product Y can not be viewed by customer group X).
customer (member of customer group X) logs in. Account page is loaded with only 1 product in cart.
customer tries to go to cart and is placed in infinite loop. The only way to show the webshop again is to delete the cookies.
We think the extension should check -after log in- if the cart contains products that can not be viewed and removes these products from the cart.

Could you advise on how we may proceed with this problem?

If I uninstall the module, then it goes back to working like normal. I'm just a frontend dev so I'm not sure how to check specifics or error logs, but I'm running Magento 1.7.0.2 and using the Connect Manager install link.

Thanks!

Hi, I have installed your extension however right after installation my catalogue is gone. tried to uninstall the extension following you instructions in magentoconnect then the entire site shows multiple errors.
Is there any otherway to uninstall ? Thanks

Hey there,

Wonderful extension! Looking forward to take advantage of it.

In the meantime, I have come across the below errors after install. Magento is stock, no changes made to the code, design, etc. Only added my own theme.

I am running on 1.7.0.2
Extension Version: 0.2.7

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.

I receive the following when trying to access the configuration for the extension:

Fatal error: Class 'Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2_Model_System_Config_Backend_Customergroup_Abstract' not found in /var/www/vhosts/test.com/httpdocs/magento/app/code/community/Netzarbeiter/GroupsCatalog2/Model/System/Config/Backend/Customergroup/Product.php on line 25

Also, I am asked to re-index the following databases:

GroupsCatalog Products
GroupsCatalog Categories

However, upon re-indexing, I receive the following error:

There was a problem with reindexing process.

And lastly, when trying to access the FrontEnd:

SELECT `e`.* FROM `catalog_product_entity` AS `e`
 INNER JOIN `groupscatalog_product_idx` ON groupscatalog_product_idx.catalog_entity_id=e.entity_id AND groupscatalog_product_idx.group_id='6' AND groupscatalog_product_idx.store_id=1 WHERE (`e`.`entity_id` IN(42, 42))

Quote from Email:
Hello we would like to use your very nice module Group Catalog2. We're running Magento 1.7.0.2, it's 1 store with 3 storeviews (3 languages).
When we installed your module everything is working perfect, however the database load is becoming very high so our hosting provider doesn't like it :) .

Is there any way to fix this, or could you help us to resolve this problem?

I think it's cause by many module installed on this Magento.

Please contact me to solve this problems.

Thanx Vinaï.

Greetings!

First thanks!, its a great extension and every Magento should have it... After a while using it i realize the "wishlist" option won't work anymore, and after looking why I end up with groupscatalog2 extension, this is the error that shows me, any idea how to solve?:

Hi,

I've installed the plugin and it works perfectly apart from one thing:

On a category listing page where you can filter by price, it seems to include all products in the menu not the ones displayed to the current user.

example:
I have a product that costs £4000 which is available to a logged in group. All other publicly available products are less than £1000. If I go to the site and don't log in, the filter by price nav displays:

£0.00 - £999.99 (132)
£4,000.00 And Above (1)

Clicking on the £4000.00 And Above link goes to a page saying no products in category. Which is correct as they're only available to a logged in user.

Is there a way to get the nav to only show the products available to the current user?

Thanks
Steve Jones

Hi,

got the following problem: After Installation of your extension Customer Groups Catalog2 via the Magento Connect Manager, I cant see any "yellow marked" upgradable extensions (see also attached images first Pic). If I deinstall your extension everything is fine again (pic nr.2). How does your extension suppress this kind of messages?

Hi,
We are using the original Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog on our first store (ver. 1.7.2) we built in August. It is working fine. We are building a 2nd store and I manually installed (not through Magento Connect) the upgraded Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2 and it turns our backend into a blank page with only the admin header.

Is there anywhere I can download the original Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog (I can't use Magento Connect because that function for some reason isn't working) or do you happen to know why the Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2 doesn't work on our ver 1.7.2?

Thanks in advance.

Michelle

I uninstall the module and everything worked correctly until I create attribute_set
After that when I wanted to see the product I get this error
Fatal error: Class 'Mage_Netzarbeiter_Groupscatalog2_Block_Adminhtml_Data_Form_Customergroup' not found in /.../lib/Varien/Data/Form/Abstract.php on line 146

I reinstalled the module, I could see the product, after uninstall it, again I get this error.

hello,

this extension worked fine for a short time, but after changing some products i got a problem with the index:

php5-cgi indexer.php --reindex groupscatalog2_product
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny16
Content-type: text/html

GroupsCatalog Products index process unknown error:

tried to delete (including the attributes with SQL ) and reinstalled. still got the same problem :(

Hi,

I noticed a strange behavior of the extension regarding the default parameters. Here is what I observed :

Let's have the following configuration :

• Extension active by default with option "Hide products by default"
• Extension active on store 1 with option "Show products by default"

Then, product A has the following config :

• by default, "Show to groups" is set to [USE DEFAULT]
• for store 1, "Hide from groups" use the default value of the product.

In that configuration, product A will never show up in store 1, although IMHO it should, because :

• store 1 default behavior is "Show products by default"
• product A "Hide from groups" for store 1 is using the default product value, which is "[USE DEFAULT]".

However, what seems to happen is that if the default value of the product is used for the "Hide from Groups" field, the default behavior will be applied too, regardless of the actual default behavior of the current store.

Note : if I disable the extension by default afterwards, the previous setting continues to be applied.

Did you notice the same behavior ? And if yes, do you know how to fix it ?

Thanks,
Olivier.

Quote from email:
I have an error for customers logging in to my site that i think i've narrowed down to the catalog module.

When logging in, instead of being redirected to the account dashboard as requested, i get redirected to the home page with /cms/ added to the domain. Order history and account dashboard are not viewable. however all other account pages are.

This issue hasn't been resolved:
#24

This version still crashes the backend. please help!

when we import products via csv the group NOT LOGGED IN is not set.
All other groups are set correctly, only when we import groupskatalog2 "NOT LOGGED IN"
this value is not set correctly?

Hi,
first of all thanks for this must have extension, came really handy for me today

I have a situation when for a group one category is restricted while other is not. These categories share same products though they differ a bit. Products are not restricted at all (can't do so because I'd have to enter them twice)
Now I have situation when in related products block products from the restricted category appear. Is this something could be resolved in the extension or it works as designed?

Thank you,
Alex

The upgrade SQL file is called upgrade-0.2.4-0.2.5.php so if you get version 0.2.7 from GitHub and you were on an earlier release like 0.1 then the upgrade SQL doesn't run.

So the fix is rename the file to upgrade-0.2.4-0.2.7.php and re-run the installation.

If this error has already hit you then you can fix it in your installation by renaming the script then in your database drop the core_resource version back to your earlier release and hit the site again, this will retrigger the installer.

[From email]:
My company currently uses your GroupCatalog2 module for a multi store
setup. We found an issue which is causing us significant heart ache.
Your module creates an index for every product for every group and
every store. Even where the output is disabled. For our configuration
this is not optimal as the resulting index table is over 1.5million
records. Is there a way to disable the indexing for stores where the
module is disabled and where the product is not listed? Any help is
appreciated, thank you.

Unconfirmed issue for Magento EE when the Groups Catalog 2 module is enabled and Catalog Permissions and Target Rules indexes are not visible.

I'll have to look into this when I find time.

Redirect to the parent directory instead of to an error page.

Thank you for your support!

Hi, I'm using your Groups Catalog 2 plugin

'Then visit the configuration page at System / Configuration / Netzarbeiter Extensions / Groups Catalog 2 and configure as needed.'

<-- There is no 'Netzarbeiter Extensions' in System > Configuration

As far as I can tell, the plugin installed fine and is active (I also logged out/in)

Hi

I am getting the below Fatal error when I re-index groupscatalog2_product manually, any idea why and what I can do to fix it.

When I re-index groupscatalog2_category it indexes successfully, HELP :(

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in /home/comamari/public_html/app/code/community/Netzarbeiter/GroupsCatalog2/Model/Resource/Indexer/Abstract.php on line 357

Do I need to increase php memory?

Many thanks

If the database is set up for groups catalog 1, but the groups catalog 1 files aren't present it would still be great if we could run the migration assistant.

This scenario happened to me after upgrading form 1.3 to 1.6, the cleanest upgrade path came from using a fresh install of 1.6 and then letting it up-rev the database - but of course this confuses the migration tool.

In this scenario $this->isGroupsCatalogInstallResourcePresent() returns true but $this->isGroupsCatalogInstalled() returns false.

So that means if you look at migration.phtml you will see most of the page content , but can't take any actions - and most of the actions are still perfectly applicable.

Perhaps if you added a method to Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog2_Block_Adminhtml_System_Tools_Migration like

public function areCatalog1FilesPreset(){ 
    /*
    Check if any of these exist
        'app/etc/modules/Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.xml',
        'app/code/community/Netzarbeiter/GroupsCatalog/',
        'app/locale/de_DE/Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.csv',
        'app/locale/en_US/Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.csv',
        'app/locale/fr_FR/Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.csv',
        'app/locale/nl_NL/Netzarbeiter_GroupsCatalog.csv'
    */
}

Then you could change the migration.phtml page to work more like a migration checklist showing either a tick or a button against each step.

I am trying to show one set of products when the customer group ID is 4 and a different set (similar products but with different prices) when the customer group ID is NOT 4

I have configured this in the Magento admin but it's just not working. Any advice?

To recreate the problem clear cookies and visit this link:

• Sets customer group 4
  http://www.zenbedroom.com/zen_usa/mattresses.html?rtp=4
• clear cookies then try this
  http://www.zenbedroom.com/zen_usa/mattresses.html?rtp=1

You will see the results are the same...

The reason behind me doing this is to basically show a different set of prices based on the link we provide to the customers. If you know a better way to achieve this then I'm all ears.

Many thanks,
Chris

Hey Vinai,

I've installed your extension and it seemed to work fine at first but now I have a few problems. I assigned a customer to a group, then created a category hiding it from everybody except this new group.

When I log in with this user's details, my main menu disappears. Can you help please?

Regards,

Karen

Implement new feature:

During indexing for product entities:

• apply the most restricting rules from any category a product is assigned to
• if the product has more restricting rules, use those.

The result would be, that for a given store, any group that is unable to access a category a product is assigned to, or is unable to access a product individually, would be unable to access that product.

So in effect it would be enough to manage visibility rules for categories, and products are hidden automatically.

A side effect would be slower indexing because of the increased processing overhead.

Optional: make this configurable on a per-category basis?

I have a Magento instance with 2 websites and around 5000 skus, I change the second website to be the default site and then delete the first (this is all on a staging server of course),

After doing that I'm unable to index GroupsCatalog Products without getting out of memory errors.

I then flush out all orders and customers from the history, so the only thing in the database is the 5000 skus - of course this makes no difference as it's not hitting that part of the DB.

I've tried merging in the indexing patch from 017d395 with no improvement I'm afraid.

I have two magento 1.7.0.2 installations and have tried to install groups catalog 2 with magento connect. On both installations I have become this error (Exception during cache and session cleaning) during installation. After this, i can't open the frontend and the backend: There has been an error processing your request.

On some grouped products the product will not go into cart. there is no rhyme and reason as to which work and which don't

Hello,

I have a problem to redirect customers to homepage instead of account admin panel. I tried to use "Redirect to target route" in "How to handle logged in customers accessing a hidden entity" field and place the route as "cms/index/index" or "cms/page/view/id/home", but it acts like it redirects to parent directory as if I clicked on the shipment terms at first, then login, it will redirect me to the shipment terms page, and if I didn't click on any page, then it will redirect me to the account admin page.

Could you help to give me advice how to redirect customers to homepage?

Getting this error after installation of Groups Catalog 2.

If extension is set to false, problem is gone.

If extension is set tot true and catalog_category_flat is Off, everything is also ok.

Vinai,

Really enjoy the concept of this plugin, however we seem to be having issues getting it to work properly. Here is the issue we're receiving when we try to go into to the catalog configuration area (It has been redacted to keep out clients site id private):

Fatal error: Class 'Mage_Groupscatalog_Block_Adminhtml_Catalog_Product_Helper_Customergroups' not found in /home/b******/public_html/s*************.com/lib/Varien/Data/Form/Abstract.php on line 144

Do you have any ideas why this might be doing this? The Magento version we're using is 1.6.2; cache has been cleared and the indexes re-indexed. The following setting are setup in the plugin:

/----Begin----/
Enable Module: (bool) True

Product Mode: Show Products by Default
Hide Products from: NOT LOGGED IN and General Sales

Category Mode: Show Products by Default
Hide Categories from: NOT LOGGED IN and General Sales

How to handle guests accessing a hidden entity: Redirect
Redirect route for guests: customer/account/login

How to handle logged in customers accessing a hidden entity: Redirect
Redirect route for logged in customers: {{HOME_URL}}/custom/moreinfo.html (This is a CMS page)

Display a message when a hidden entity is accessed?: No
Auto refresh CATEGORY cache

Automatically refresh the CATEGORY BLOCK HTML cache to update the category navigation when the visibility setting for a category is changed. : (bool) True (Yes)
/----End----/

Any pointers on how to get this working would bee great! Thank you for your time.
