Fatal errors creating menus and menu items

Post by Amongthegums » Wed Mar 04, 2015 6:31 am

Hi
I get the following fatal error when trying to create menus or menu items:

Code: Select all

Save failed with the following error: exception 'UnexpectedValueException' with message 'MenusTableMenu::_getNode(1, ) failed.' in /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/joomla/table/nested.php:1542 Stack trace: #0 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/joomla/table/nested.php(783): JTableNested->_getNode(1) #1 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/legacy/table/menu.php(215): JTableNested->store(false) #2 /home2/userdomain/public_html/administrator/components/com_menus/models/item.php(1254): JTableMenu->store() #3 /home2/userdomain/public_html/administrator/components/com_menus/controllers/item.php(267): MenusModelItem->save(Array) #4 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/legacy/controller/legacy.php(728): MenusControllerItem->save() #5 /home2/userdomain/public_html/administrator/components/com_menus/menus.php(18): JControllerLegacy->execute('apply') #6 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/cms/component/helper.php(380): require_once('/home2/userdomain...') #7 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/cms/component/helper.php(360): JComponentHelper::executeComponent('/home2/userdomain...') #8 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/cms/application/administrator.php(98): JComponentHelper::renderComponent('com_menus') #9 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/cms/application/administrator.php(152): JApplicationAdministrator->dispatch() #10 /home2/userdomain/public_html/libraries/cms/application/cms.php(251): JApplicationAdministrator->doExecute() #11 /home2/userdomain/public_html/administrator/index.php(42): JApplicationCms->execute() #12 {
Can anyone enlighten me as to what the error means and if there is anything I can do about it?

PS: Joomla 3.4 and I have done several clean re-installs to try and overcome the problem, without luck.

With thanks

I just noticed I cannot "Empty" the menu Trash list. Again I get fatal errors indicating relationships are preventing it "emptying".

How can I clear all of the menus and their items in an attempt to start again?

Thanks

SOLVED: Fatal errors creating menus and menu items

My Apologies. It turns out that the problem is with something called "Helix Mega Menu" that came with a commercial template I had purchased. It seems when the column value is > 1 the errors listed above occurs.

Have a look at the version of PHP that you are using and the version of PHP that is recommended for the version of Joomla

Try Use localhost (XAMPP)
