I am trying to add products to Magento 1.5 programmatically. My script will ultimately be a cron job, regularly updating and adding products as dictated by an XML file supplied by the accounts system.
I have a problem in creating new products. The relevant code segment from my script is:
$attributeSetId = 4;
//$newproduct = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
$newproduct = new Mage_Catalog_Model_Product();
$newproduct->setTypeId('simple');
$newproduct->setWeight($product->UnitWeight);
$newproduct->setVisibility(Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Visibility::VISIBILITY_BOTH);
$newproduct->setStatus(1);
$newproduct->setSKU($SKU);
$newproduct->setTaxClassId(0);
$newproduct->setWebsiteIDs(array(0));
$newproduct->setStoreIDs(array(1));
$newproduct->setStockData(array(
'is_in_stock' => 1,
'qty' => $XMLproduct->QtyInStock,
'manage_stock' => 1
));
$newproduct->setAttributeSetId(4);
$newproduct->setName($product->Name);
$newproduct->setCategoryIds(array(3)); // array of categories it will relate to
$newproduct->setDescription($product->LongDescription);
$newproduct->setShortDescription($product->Description);
$newproduct->setPrice($XMLproduct->SalePrice);
try {
if (is_array($errors = $newproduct->validate())) {
$strErrors = array();
foreach($errors as $code=>$error) {
$strErrors[] = ($error === true)? Mage::helper('catalog')->__('Attribute "%s" is invalid.', $code) : $error;
}
$this->_fault('data_invalid', implode("\n", $strErrors));
}
$newproduct->save();
} catch (Mage_Core_Exception $e) {
$this->_fault('data_invalid', $e->getMessage());
}
The product is 'half' created, but the script gives up throwing the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`LittleDickyBird`.`catalog_category_product_index`, CONSTRAINT `FK_CATALOG_CATEGORY_PROD_IDX_CATEGORY_ENTITY` FOREIGN KEY (`category_id`) REFERENCES `catalog_category_entity` (`entity_id`) ON )' in /home/default/littledickybird.co.uk/user/htdocs/1.5/lib/Zend/Db/Statement/Pdo.php:228

Can anyone, please, throw any light onto what I am missing or doing wrong. As you may be able to tell from my tone, I am pretty desperate, so any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank you
AMP, the OP, already self-answered the question.

Cool, I have found the problem, the line:
$newproduct->setWebsiteIDs(array(0));
should be:$newproduct->setWebsiteIDs(array(1));
Amazing how the smallest thing can waste hours!
