Thanks !!!! it worked for my case as welll…..i was using a procedure for setting attribute and associating them with simple products, for configurable products which were imported..but in frontend they were all showing out of stock….so for that there was no option i cud find other than visiting those products one by one and saving….as i was not able to figure out which all tables are being affected…so finally with option given by @eric jeker ..i cud save my time and found a wonderful solution……

You also can reset the database with those two SQL request :

UPDATE mage_cataloginventory_stock_item SET is_in_stock = 1, manage_stock = 0, use_config_manage_stock = 1, stock_status_changed_automatically = 0 ;

UPDATE mage_cataloginventory_stock_status SET stock_status = 1 ;

This will deactivate the stock management and set ALL the products as “In Stock”.

In my magento project whenever i add new product in manage product list and select inventory in stock that time in front view that product’s convert into encode language i can’t read it. if it is in out of stock that time it is normal. please any one having an idea share with us.
Thankx

There is another cause you should investigate before changing the above mentioned files:

If you’ve turned off stock management _after_ creating the affected products, all these products are set to “not in stock”.

In this case, you should (1.) override the “manage stock” option for each affected product, (2.) set the option “in stock” to “yes” and (3.) disable the “manage stock”-override again.

(Or, if you have many products, change this setting in the database directly …)

This hint is for version 1.3.x, however, I think many people are still using the solution by Fido

I believe the three mentioned between the article and the comments are the only I’ve run across on the forums

Thank you both for your comments / contributions!

@Svemir – I have also heard of this problem (but not witnessed it myself) on the Compare item block. This fix can most likely be applied to that as well if anyone runs into that.

Same fix can be applied to other boxes, such as recently-viewed box:

app/code/core/Mage/Reports/Block/Product/Viewed.php

$productCollection = Mage::getModel(’catalog/product’)
->getCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect(’name’)
->addAttributeToSelect(’price’)
->addAttributeToSelect(’small_image’)
->addAttributeToSelect(’status’)
->addIdFilter($productIds)
->addUrlRewrite();
