The Value of attribute “url_path” must be unique bug popped up again after adding more products to a Magento Ecommerce store.
I was “happily” going about my business creating configurable and their associated simple products when out of the blue I started getting this error. It was after the 50th product that Magento wouldn’t let me save any further. This particular Magento store is running version 1.3.2.4, and it didn’t matter what values I entered into the URL Key or SKU field, it still gave the error. I also tried refreshing the cache, including Catalog Rewrites, but to no avail.
As a workaround, I ran the following SQL (this can be through phpMyAdmin or whatever SQL client you are comfortable with):
UPDATE eav_attribute SET is_unique = 0 WHERE attribute_code = ‘url_path’
This can of course be reversed when this version is next upgraded and the bug is fixed. Just run:
UPDATE eav_attribute SET is_unique = 1 WHERE attribute_code = ‘url_path’
