Fatal Error WPSC_Countries

Hi,

I have been following this thread trying to see if this got resolved yet. I’m also hosting on godaddy. I have tried re-naming the object-cache.php file and it worked for a day or so but i got the message again today.

as like many people i too can navigate the site if i’m logged in as the admin but when viewing my site from the outside gives me these error codes:

Fatal error: WPSC_Countries::get_countries(): The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition “WPSC_Data_Map” of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ unserialize() gets called or provide a __autoload() function to load the class definition in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas07_data02/26/2539426/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-e-commerce/wpsc-includes/wpsc-countries.class.php on line 462

Also, I did notice that after re-naming the object-cache.php file that is just created a new one. not sure if that is the point of re-naming it but thought ti was interesting.

My website is here: cppsweb.com

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Dillon.F,

I’m sure GoDaddy automatically regenerates the file on a regular basis, maybe 24 hours, if it detects that it is gone. We believe there might be an issue on GoDaddy’s end with the implementation of the APC object cache and we are working with them directly to resolve the issue.

On top of that, we’re attempting to address this in core. If you want to apply that fix, you can attempt the following:

1. Replace the contents of /wpsc-includes/misc.functions.php with this code.
2. Replace the contents of /wpsc-includes/wpsc-countries.class.php with this code.
3. Replace the contents of /wpsc-includes/wpsc-data-map.class.php with this code.

Alternatively, you can keep renaming the object-cache.php file, or wait for it to get fixed on GoDaddy’s end.

One final fix, that is totally untested, is actually a modification to the object-cache.php. I don’t know whether or not GoDaddy checks the checksum of the object-cache.php file, or simply for the existence of it – but if they won’t replace changes you make to it, you might try adding our cookie to the logged_in check, on Line 19 – you can do that like this:

if ( preg_match( '/^comment_author|wpsc_customer_cookie_[a-f0-9]+|wordpress_logged_in_[a-f0-9]+|woocommerce_items_in_cart|PHPSESSID_|edd_wp_session|edd_items_in_cartcc_cart_key|ccm_token/', $k ) ) {

Hope that all helps!

Yes, Justin, thanks. The renaming resolved the issue at least temporarily. Or last renaming lasted from April 7th through the 22nd. Maybe we (someone who is not me) can figure out how to apply your more permanent fix.

Thanks so much!

Justin,

I’m new to this so please excuse my ignorance, but if I add the code you provided am I correct in understanding that if WP eCommerce updates thier plugin it will delete out any code I have put into those files. Correct?

Thanks!

Hi Dillon.F,

Not necessarily, but it depends on which code you’re referring to.

If referring to the three files mentioned above – in theory, those fixes will be in the next update, so it won’t remove them.

If referring to the suggested changes to the object-cache.php file (which I would love to have you, or someone, test, so we can report to GoDaddy if it fixes it) – then an update to WP eCommerce will NOT affect that at all.

Justin,

I am willing to give your code for the object-cache.php file a try. However, since I’m so new to this I’m not familiar with best practice with inserting code. The only experience I have is when a theme or pluggin has a custom CSS field to put code in.(and a little with child theme codes)

So with that said how should I insert the code you provided? When I go to my FTP and find the objects-cache.php file I can open it in notepad however since notepad doesn’t have line numbers or even breaks in the code I’m not sure where to insert the code you said to put on “line 19”.

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Justin, I applied this to a clients site and it seems to work perfectly. I’ll update here if other problems arise.

Thanks
