Error 500 syntax error, unexpected 'private' (T_Pr

Hello,

I received this error after receiving a magento2 bad data set error and un-commenting out the  lines

//uncomment below code lines to using for bad data cases only
                                    if (strlen(trim($model2->value)) > 255) {
                                        $model2->value = substr(trim($model2->value), 0, 255);

from Step5Controller.php

 

Error 500

syntax error, unexpected ‘private’ (T_PRIVATE)

How do I go about fixing this??

Thanks

Hi Mall,
I’m not quite sure what you need.
I received this error message..
Mage2CatalogProductEntityVarchar: Value is too long (maximum is 255 characters).
and found the solution in the questions section on your site here

Mage2CatalogProductEntityVarchar: Value is too lon


So I uncommented out the lines you mention in your answer but then I received the error message
Error 500
syntax error, unexpected ‘private’ (T_PRIVATE).
When I went back and commented those lines again the error went away but then i got the
Mage2CatalogProductEntityVarchar: Value is too long (maximum is 255 characters).
Error message again.

It seems you did something wrong. You have to follow additional steps below:

+ Open the PHP file at: pub/ub-tool/protected/controllers/Step5Controller.php
and find the code lines:

//uncomment below code lines to using for bad data cases only
/*if (strlen(trim($model2->value)) > 255) {
$model2->value = substr(trim($model2->value), 0, 255);
}*/

and then, replace it with:

if (strlen(trim($model2->value)) > 255) {
$model2->value = substr(trim($model2->value), 0, 255);
}

Let’s have a look again.

Regards,
Mall.

OK so I realized I updated the script while I was in the middle of using the UB migration tool. I reset all steps resaved the file and and restarted the process and everything worked!!
Thanks for your help.
