setData() error Chapter 5

[tomburman]

Hi Allan,
Im stuck on chapter 5 with regards to the edit form. Im getting a fatal error on a method setData(). Heres the full error:

"Fatal error: Call to a member function setData() on a non-object in /Users/tomburman/Sites/magento-8.tburman/httpdocs/magento/app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Widget/Form/Container.php on line 129"

Ive tested on magento 1.7 and 1.9 so its not a version issue.

Just to be clear im getting this error when clicking on a registry in the manage registries menu(backend) to try and show the edit registry form.

Any help will be appreciated
Cheers

Hi Tom,

Any chance you could share your code so far? I will take a look and see where the mistake could be.

For everyone receiving this error, here's the solution:

// In Mdg_Giftregistry_Block_Adminhtml_Registries_Edit constructor
$this->_blockGroup = 'mdg_giftregistry';
$this->_controller = 'adminhtml_registries';
$this->_mode = 'edit';
