I get an error when attempting to run my site on my localhost server. I've done this many times in the past: extract my site from git, point to my local copy of the database, configure localhost database in local.xml, and clear the 'var' directory to remove cache, sessions, etc.

However, now, I get the following error. Any clues to help my track down my configuration local hosting issue?

Fatal error: Class 'Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Db_Abstract' not found in D:\Ampps...\shop\app\code\core\Mage\Core\Model\Mysql4\Abstract.php on line 36

Note: the file path is edited (with ...) to obfuscate the website details. And, the file definitely does exist at the path reported in the error message.

  • I got my localhost site working using a different branch from git. I'll diagnose the differences between the branches and post the root cause of the error to share with all.

You'd check your project files, it seems you're missing a core file: app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Resource/Db/Abstract.php

You could download 1.8 package, and copy app/code/core folder into your project (maybe some other folders are needed, if other errors appear)

  • You use compiler or some other extension affecting the filesystem? The error is clear. You must have app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Mysql4/ directory. Double check that (downloading 1.8 package should fix that).

  • The file does exist at both the path you described in your answer app/code/core/Mage/Model/Resource/Db/Abstract.php and at the path in the error message app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Mysql4/Abtract.php The first thing I did was looked to see if the file existed. I updated the question since I omitted that detail.

  • Just download 1.8, replace app/code/core, and check "git status"
