Fatal error when $product->update() is executed - PS 1.7.6.7.

[dp2021]

Hi community, I hope you can help me with this issue:

We have installed Prestashop versión 1.7.6.7 and we have developed a php script to update price and stock.

Every time we try to execute $product->update() it stops with Fatal Error. It only Works if the site is under maintenance. By any chance, do you know what could be happening?

 

Thank you in advance!

Knowing the details of the Fatal Error is crucial to identifying the issue.

If you didn't see details, try to enable debug mode in /config/defines.inc.php

I know this is a very late reply, but the mai culprit for this error is that the context employee is null.

Add:

$employee = new Employee();
$this->context->employee = $employee;

And the controller will update products.
