Our website theme has been having issues with the Magento Patch 6788. The theme developers sent me their patch this morning and I went ahead and copied over the files that they provided for me. Now when I load up the website or the front end I am given these errors:

Admin Area:

`Fatal error: Call to a member function setArea() on a non-object in

/home/hoods/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Controller/Action.php on

line 157`

Front End:

Fatal error: Call to a member function setArea() on a non-object in /home/hoods/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Controller/Front/Action.php on line 62*

Line 157 would be: 

$this->getLayout()->setArea($this->_currentArea);

Any idea of what would have caused this?

  • Did you clear cache and logout and log back in?

  • Our Admin area isn't accessible as well. I've tried clearing out the cache manually through a FTP Client but still no avail.

I just had the same and found out by debugging that there was an invalid rewrite for the layout model Mage_Core_Model_Layout. In fact, I had an incomplete install of Inchoo_PHP7 where the config.xml file was in place but the class Inchoo_PHP7_Model_Layout which was given as a rewrite was not. Thus, the solution was to add the full module Inchoo_PHP7 module (branch 1.9.2.4).
