We are experiencing issues when trying to move or save a category in Magento 2.1.8

Trying to move a category results in:

There was a category move error.

Whilst trying to save gives this error:

Something went wrong while saving the category.

The following in the exception log is one clue:

main.CRITICAL: InvalidArgumentException: indexMethod must be one of  in
/home/site/websites/www.xxxxxxxxxx.com/htdocs/vendor/magento/framework/DB/TemporaryTableService.php:103

The only other error being in the console:

VM1871:6 Expected to start loader but did not find one in the dom

I've found people with similar errors on Google, but none with this exception.

I've tried:

  • Reindexing
  • Clearing caches
  • Recompiling
  • Truncating the url_rewrite table

But nothing has worked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Geat, donot get proper error message. First open Magento\Catalog\Controller\Adminhtml\Category\Save .Find ` $this->messageManager->addError(__('Something went wrong while saving the category.'));` change to ` $this->messageManager->addError($e->getMessage());` tell message what is the issue – Amit Bera♦ Sep 22 '17 at 2:22
  • Thanks, Amit. It gives me the same error that I saw in the logs: "indexMethod must be one of", and that's the entire error string. It's like the whole request to write to the database is empty. – Geat Sep 22 '17 at 15:08
  • i guess that some tabl related to product was corrupt that why it is happeing – Amit Bera♦ Sep 23 '17 at 7:35

The user dakzilla over on GitHub had the same issue, and his solution worked for me.

During the upgrade from 2.1.7 to 2.1.8 (in my case), app/etc/di.xml was not updated properly.

Adding the following lines to the file (after comparing my file to that in the official download) and recompiling got rid of the errors.

<type name="Magento\Framework\DB\TemporaryTableService">
  <arguments>
    <argument name="allowedIndexMethods" xsi:type="array">
      <item name="HASH" xsi:type="string">HASH</item>
      <item name="BTREE" xsi:type="string">BTREE</item>
    </argument>
    <argument name="allowedEngines" xsi:type="array">
      <item name="INNODB" xsi:type="string">INNODB</item>
      <item name="MEMORY" xsi:type="string">MEMORY</item>
      <item name="MYISAM" xsi:type="string">MYISAM</item>
    </argument>
  </arguments>
</type>

Not the solution, but at least it will bring you closer to it. It's vendor/magento/module-catalog-url-rewrite/Model/Category/CurrentUrlRewritesRegenerator.php and vendor/magento/module-catalog-url-rewrite/Model/Product/CurrentUrlRewritesRegenerator.php getting the wrong entity type info (ProductUrlRewriteGenerator::ENTITY_TYPE returns 'product' instead of 4, CategoryUrlRewriteGenerator::ENTITY_TYPE is 'category' instead of 3)
