Hi
thanks for that...
did you not possibly look at the editing area, where the language is set ?

I think it will be better to edit this than the actual list of items ...

Hello, I just encountered the same issue (1.5.3c stable, r354).

Instead of applying the above patch, I went to the database to check what's wrong.

The error happens to me when an item has been saved/applied without specifying the language (and JoomFish integration is activated).

You may update the database and complete the "language" colum in the jos_flexicontent_items_ext table for all items with no language specified.

Of course it would be preferable if onsave validation would prevent that incomplete records can be saved.

HTH, rjo

Update: No, it also happens when the language has been correctly selected before saving.

I also had this problem, and I solved this by installing the Art Adminer component. After installing you go to the jos_flexicontent_items_ext tabel and choose select table.

Then search for language (use like) and leave the input field empty.

Your result should be all rows without language id filled.

Then you can edit the row and fill in the language id manually, for dutch this is nl-NL for instance.

Then you save the row and that will do the job!

My question is if it is possible to solve this problem in flexicontent, so you can select a default language.

THANKS

Hello, I still try to figure out what happens. No solution yet, but here are some findings:
In administrator/components/com_flexicontent/tables/flexicontent_items.php store is called twice when I save an item from the front-end. (performance optimisation possible ?, but this is not the issue)

Code:

function store( $updateNulls=false )
	{
		$k             = $this->_tbl_key;
		$frn_key       = $this->_frn_key;

		// Split the object for the two tables #__content and #__flexicontent_items_ext
		//$type     = new stdClass();
		$type = & JTable::getInstance('content');
		$type->_tbl = $this->_tbl;
		$type->_tbl_key = $this->_tbl_key;
		//$type_ext = new stdClass();
		$type_ext = & JTable::getInstance('flexicontent_items_ext', '');
		$type_ext->_tbl = $this->_tbl_join;
		$type_ext->_tbl_key = $this->_frn_key;
		foreach ($this->getProperties() as $p => $v) {

$this->getProperties() shows the default language property and not the language submitted via post.

Code:

			// If the property is in the join properties array we add it to the items_ext object
			if (in_array($p, $this->_join_prop)) {
				$type_ext->$p = $v;
				// Else we add it to the type object
			} else {
				$type->$p = $v;
			}
		}

Update:
After uncommenting line 845 in components/com_flexicontent/models/items.php...

Code:

// set type and language
$item->type_id 		= (int)$typeid;
// $item->language		= flexicontent_html::getSiteDefaultLang();

...things work much better for me. ;-)

There seems to be an issue with getSiteDefaultLang. I cannot get any debugging information from that function.
