Mage_Eav_Model_Attribute_Data::factory() must be an instance of Mage_Eav_Model_Attribute

Question

I'm facing this message in system.log when I open an oreder from the admin panel:

MESSAGE: Recoverable Error: Argument 1 passed to Mage_Eav_Model_Attribute_Data::factory() must be an instance of Mage_Eav_Model_Attribute, instance of Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute given, called in app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Sales/Order/View/Info.php on line 133 and defined  in app/code/core/Mage/Eav/Model/Attribute/Data.php on line 59

I have found another question similar to this, but it was related to a specific module and doesn't provide a general method to manage this error.
So, is there a way to act/a path that should be followed to find the problem and fix it? It looks like it prevents me from edit the order

Answer 1

Open up PHPmyadmin

Locate eav_attribute table

Go to Search

backend_model is not null

Press Go

For all the results set backend_model as NULL

Answer 2

I had same issue, but its resolved after run following query into my database :

UPDATE eav_attribute SET attribute_model = NULL WHERE attribute_id = '25'
