Hunks failed in Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/Abstract.php SUPEE 8788 [duplicate]

Question

I'm searching high and low and can't find the solution to my problem. I almost got the patch working properly except for this file (app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/Abstract.php). Excerpt from terminal:

patching file app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/Abstract.php Hunk #1 FAILED at 34. Hunk #2 FAILED at 43. Hunk #3 FAILED at 56. Hunk #4 FAILED at 89. Hunk #5 FAILED at 126. Hunk #6 FAILED at 155. Hunk #7 FAILED at 169. Hunk #8 FAILED at 304. Hunk #9 FAILED at 419. 9 out of 9 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Blo ck/Product/Abstract.php.rej

I checked and the file seems to be the same as from stock (no changes made to the core file). Can anyone help?

PS I reverted SUPEE-1533, installed SUPEE-3941 before trying to patch 8788 v2.

PPS it's not duplicate, this issue isn't covered in that post..... please read before you mark it duplicate

Answer 1

Well I tried something which worked.. hope it will help others who run into the same problem:

-Download the Abstract.php file

-Add some comment lines

-Upload

-Try patch -> it will fail this time but with different error message:

patching file app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/Abstract.php Hunk #1 FAILED at 34. Hunk #2 succeeded at 48 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #3 succeeded at 76 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #4 succeeded at 114 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #5 succeeded at 166 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #6 succeeded at 195 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #7 succeeded at 215 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #8 succeeded at 356 (offset 5 lines). Hunk #9 succeeded at 476 (offset 5 lines). 1 out of 9 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/Abstract.php.rej

-Remove those lines you just added

-Re-upload

-Patch, and it works!
