Magento

Hi,

Please if you can help.

I installed on my reseller zoom hosting account magento. ( Unix box, php 5 running from a .htaccess setting other wise I get
php 4 by default)

After I install the latest version for a period (random a few hours to a few days) I’m able to use magento just fine.

But after a while I get this error: “unable to complete request error , please try again later” when I try to save
an attribute set. ( it don’t mater if just modify the order of attributes in the set and save or if I try to add a new attribute in
the set and then save)
The problem seams to go away after a fresh install. ( ex: when I upgrade to the latest version)

I don’t have any modifications applied to my setup just the fix with the file permission for the problem
with the back end drop down menus that don’t work after install.

This problem appears no mater what browser I use: IE or Firefox.

I never get this problem on my test magento that I run on my Windows XP box with XAMPP.

Please help.

Hi,
I’m getting the same problem too and it a new install of the latest version. Created attributes fine but it will not save attribute sets.
Can anyone help please?

I am having exactly the same issue. After new install I can’t save attribute sets. I am trying to add only a few attributes to attribute set then click save attribute set and after a long wait I get an error message “Unable to complete request. Please try again later.”

Help please!

Same problem here, does any one got a solution?

Try turning off your cache in magento (in the admin->System->Cache Management->Disable All Cache) and then navigate to your cache directory (\var\cache) and manually delete everything in that directory. You can delete the stuff in (\var\session) for good measure as well if you like. Then try the attribute sets again.

Thanks Mate~ works fine for me now

Thanks, this worked for me too. Why do you have to do this though?!

I have this same problem and tried disabling all cache and deleting the files in the var/cache & var/session folders. Am I missing something?

\i was having the same problem with magento 1.3.2.4 but worked well after disableing cahce and removing cahe files manually from \var\cache\. Thanks.

How do you make sure this works well?

I changed the base_url and everything worked. After a week or so it stopped working because I made a mistake in the url ( I Guess the DB or the backend did some caching).

I fixed the url now in the DB and I`m almost 100% sure it will work again, but will deleting the cache reset all the links in the store?

The problem was that i forgot the “/ “ and now all the files are poiting to urls like:

example.comskin/images

instead of

example.com/skin/images

Hi

Thanks so much - this worked! Fab!
