I was going to add an attribute to the article class. We got about 13.000 articles in the database, and when i add this attribute in the admin-interface then eZ publish isn't able to do this operation. eZ publish fails this task. Does anyone know how I can create this attribute with a script or make this work in another way? L.

Adding attributes works for me. What kind of error du you get? I would try to clear the caches for the admin interface, sometimes the caches get you into trouble when modifying classes.

eZ publish processes and you can see on the statusbar in the browser that ez is working, but it hangs after a while..I check some articles, Some articles have got this new attribute available, but not all.

Maybe it is updating the database so that all articles get an empty value for the attribute? Try to extend the timeout (showld be in your vhosts file I think) and let it process?

Nope. The eZ team mentioned that I need to write a script to be able to add a new attribute on a class if there are a lot of objects of this article class in the database. Because it's to heavy to process this through the admin-interface when there's thousands of objects in the db.

As long as the process doesn't time out when you run it through your browser you should be ok. We have a script internaly that we use for this that I think you can use as a starting point. I'll ask someone who has it.
