Update Script Fails

Well, this sucks :/

Looks like the update code in Pathauto is to blame: #1805486: Bulk updating taxonomy terms does not work at all.
And it looks like it doesn't have code to handle the case where no terms were returned from the query.

Here's a quickfix, it will disable the pathauto update code and allow you to complete updating Kickstart.
In the meantime, we'll need to figure out how to proceed here (patch pathauto probably)...

What is the kickstart version you are updating from?
It should not be possible for the Title module to be missing.

If Title was not in profiles/commerce_kickstart/modules/contrib then you have not properly uploaded Kickstart 2.0
Same thing for Libraries.

No, those two modules have always been under profiles/commerce_kickstart/modules/contrib, which is what's making me think your installation is damaged in some way.

I have the same error in 7.x-2.4, but it's because the title module is disabled.

Title only has 'Commerce Kickstart Lite Product' as dependency. So if product UI also has a dependency on it, it should be added in the dependency list.
If not (i think this is the case, as it's only on field_create_instance), a module_exists check should be added.

@zuuperman: Your fix has been commited to dev but why did you remove the title module ?

Thanks.. I did that (change the path auto lines), all 8 updates now ran successfully until reaching 100%, after which I got the

Update #7205
Important: We couldn't add the new fields to the index.

message again.

When running update.php it now says no new updates.. On the site still no products to be seen (I know they are there, I can get the individual ones in view through admin). I did bulk update the aliases through admin, made lots of changes but no product overview pages are generated..

(I also disabled the two old product Views, and checked, Title and Libraries modules are installed and enabled and in the contrib folder)

Any way I can add the #7205 fields to the index myself? How and where?

Reverting your search api index should fix the issue...
Go to admin/config/search/search_api/index/product_display/, you should be able to revert your index, then reindex everything and it should work !

Sorry to bother you again, and again thanks for all the help. Feel We'll get there in the end..

Have wiped and reindexed. As a result I have now lost all menu buttons that referred to the various product types (which used to be organised through 'collections'). So how do I now create new overviews per category?

The old path to a product used to be xxxx.com/collection/seasonal/product1, if I now type xxxx.com/seasonal/product1 I do get the single product in view, but with an error:

Notice: Undefined index: summary in node_tokens() (line 142 of /services5/webpages/w/h/xxxxx.com/public/modules/node/node.tokens.inc).

I have no clue how to get the page back that showed all products of one type (e.g. the seasonal ones) on one page?

Which menu buttons are you talking about ? The ones that are referring to the collection ? These are not pointing to the taxonomy/term view anymore, we're instead using a view based on the product display index.
Perhaps you need to rebuild the taxonomy menu by going to the taxonomy vocabulary edition page (admin/structure/taxonomy/collection/edit).
Can you check if your collection products view is there ? (admin/structure/views/view/collection_products/edit)

@jsacksick The title module was not needed, because the title that needs to be shown can come from multiple fields. We have custom DS field that shows the correct title.

@ #16.. jsacksick.. once more thanks for your help and suggestions! I have looked at the whole issue, the views, the database, tried to make it work but failed. So I decided to have a completely clean install of commerce kickstart 2.4 (drupal 7.20) on another site I have on the same hosting provider. Guess what I found: the search API gives me the following error:

SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1044 Access denied for user 'xxx' to database xxxdb

What this boils down to: my user has all permissions on my database except for one: creating temporary tables, so search API and facets do not work (so 'all products' button gives the same error too. This means I can't run kickstart on the provider anymore, as apparently now the whole product thing is run using facets.. So the error is with my terrible host, not kickstart.

For those in the UK: do not host your kickstart on talktalkbusiness, as they refuse to grant this 'create temporary tables' permission! and that at a price which should include a red carpet + rolls royce + driver.

Anyway, what I need to know now (until I move host in the near future).. what is the last Kickstart 2.x that uses taxonomy and view to display the products (rather than search api and views)?

And, can I switch back by replacing the 2.4 files with the older version and then run update.php? (2.4 never updated the product tables in my database), or do I need a full clean install and then rebuild the site?

(or perhaps I can manually re-instate the taxonomy view of products?)

Regards,
Xander

The last Kickstart release that uses a Taxonomy view is the rc2, but it contains an old and unsecure version of the Drupal core and of course you will loose other bugfixes and improvements....
