Please advice.

Welcome to nopCommerce community

If you want to see weight of current product (By current product i mean, product that is currently stored in your nopCommerce database) follow these steps:

1) Go to admin section > catalog > products > manage products

2) search your desired product

3) click on "Edit" against the name of the product

4) You will be on "Edit product details" Page

5) Select 3rd tab "Product Variant (SKU's)

You will see "Unnamed product variant --------VIEW"

6) Click on VIEW

7) Now you will be on this page "Edit product variant for product:"

8) scroll down , in the middle of the page you should be able to see "Weight:  [lb(s)]"

Hope it helps

If you want to store weight of new product :

1) Go to admin section > catalog > products > manage products

2) click "Add New"

you will be on this page : "Add a new product"

On the bottom of the pagen you will be able to specify product weight

We're sorry, an internal error occurred that prevents the request to complete.

Our supporting staff has been notified with this error and will address this issue shortly. We profusely apologize for the inconvenience and for any damage this may cause. You might want to try the same action at later time.

Any idea?

you can see the "weight" field in nopCommerce database in table "Nop_ProductVariant"

To get detailed reason of what's causing that error message, you can do one thing:

In your webconfig file:

you need to turn off the customer errors mode:


find out the script： <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="ErrorPage.htm">
                             <error statusCode="403" redirect="BannedAddress.htm"/>
                             <error statusCode="404" redirect="FileNotFound.htm"/>
                             </customErrors>

from your web.config file and replace with

                    <customErrors mode="Off"/>

then run your project and again click on "Edit" then i guess you get that error message

go to system > log

see if there is any error message saved

paste it here

here is more
