Steven - here is a screenshot of the dpm() output of one of the
partially loaded nodes:

Note that the message at the bottom ('NID is 730') pulls that from the
$nid argument passed to the function.

Hi Brian,
What happens if you bypass the static caching in node_load, by
changing your node_load call to:
$node = node_load($nid, NULL, TRUE);
Does that change anything?

Can anyone think of a situation where a node_load() contained in a function
returns partial results when the function is called from a batch script?
I have a simple function that I am calling the from a batch API script that
processes through a bunch of nodes to fix filepaths in certain migrated
content. I've begun experiencing a strange issue while testing it; I've
boiled it down to the following test case:
<?php
function migration_fix_photos($nid) {
$node = node_load($nid);
dpm($node);
drupal_set_message('NID is ' . $nid);
}
?>
When I call this function with a given NID from a batch script, on some
runs, the $node object returned by $node_load is only partially loaded - it
has 3 of the 10-12 CCK fields the node should contain, also, $node->title,
$node->nid, $node->uid and $node->type are missing from the object, among
other portions.
The behavior changes between runs of the batch script. I can run a testing
run, and only get partially loaded nodes. I can re-run the batch script, and
they are fully loaded. Note that this changes per-run of the batch script,
not per-call of the function. That is, when the batch script operates on
2000 nodes, the partial node_load() will or will not happen for all 2000
times the above function is run. I could run the batch script again, and get
perfectly normal results for all 2000 nodes next time.
If I call the above function directly, it shows correct results every time.
This only happens when called from a batch script. Note that the $nid
argument is always shown as correct (tested with the drupal_set_message()
call).
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening? I have tried using Xdebug,
but I can't determine how to attach onto the background AJAX requests the
browser is making.
