Easy Populate & Products Attributes

[Guest]

I'm having an issue with easypopulate. I can download just fine edit and upload, but when I upload it says :

 

File uploaded.

Temporary filename: C:\PHP\uploadtemp\php2254.tmp

User filename: EP2006Sep08-1806fix2.xls

Size: 1520128

 

This doesn't look like an error message, but I'm not even sure were that file is stored and when I check OS the products are not there. It seems like it's uploading but not inserting? :blink:

 

I have double and triple checked my folder locations and permissions and even went so far as to force my server guy to make my entire server 100% writeable for a short time with still no luck.

 

Then, I added echos throughout the function to try and see where the hold up is as I am not getting any errors. I made it all the way to the last echo but the data is still not being inserted. I'm even having trouble locating were in the code the insert is, I'm assuming that it is in the walk function.

 

So it generally seems that everything is ok, there just is't anything being written to the database and no errors to tell me what's wrong. Anyone have anything on this?? at all?? I know I've seen others with the same problem but the ones that got fixed all seem to be folder related and I've eliminated this as a possibility, unless there is some hidden folder crazyness that I'm not thinking of.

 

double check you are not trying to upoad an EXCEL format file: I see an xls extension, and it should be a .txt

The example was a EXCEL format but I caught that and I am having the same problem with .txt.

try TWO rows (at least one EOREOR), without HTML tags, without quotes and see if it inserts.

[Guest]

I feel like such a tard. :blink:

 

EXCEL was saving the file as tab delimited but had the config set for semicolon. I am getting an upload error now but at least it is trying to insert. I'm going to review this thread again and see if there is a fix before I post the new error.

I have set up a localhost site from scratch and installed a few other needed contributions. The last one I did was EasyPopulate and it went well. The only thing is that when I go to Admin, it doesn't do anything.

 

I have added 2 items to one catagory and tried to download a full db to edit but it doesn't do ANYTHING. I have also tried to upload my db from my live site but it doesn't work either.

 

What could the problem be???

 

I have gone over the installation step by step to confirm I didn't miss anything.

 

Thanks

Well it has been almost 3 weeks now since I posted the original request for help on this issue and I have not receive one response. Either it is something that is impossible to fix so no one wants to attempt to help me or I am invisible. lol

 

I have since added a new osCommerce test site to a subdirectory on my server and I have run into the same problem. When I try to download OR upload a txt file, the screen just seems to refresh itself.

 

Can anyone help me with this one PLEEEEAAAASSSSSEEEE.

 

Thank you

Try to work on a real server, not local host to see if it works.

Thank you John for responding. Firstly, I apologize if I sounded negative, but I have been passed over for so long and was getting frustrated. I tried daily to figure this problem out.

 

Anyway, here is the code from the configure.php file.

And this is the temp settings in the easypopulate.php file.

 

$tempdir = "/public_html/aa-osctestsite/temp/";

$tempdir2 = "/public_html/aa-osctestsite/temp/";

 

 

Thank you so much for your help

This is on both a local server and a live server. Same results.

The file may be too big. Try turning off attributes and splitting the file before uploading. Otherwise, place some markers in the code next to the seperate functions and see how far along you get before it fails.

it looks like you have a semi-colon delimited file, double check that this is also the separator for your EP file

I have the delimiter set to semicolon. Just verified again to make sure.

your product model data seems to go in the next field with EP, double check that you don't have an empty column 1 in your excel file

[Guest]

Nope the column is full of model numbers. I've even counted the rows in the delimited file and hand checked that the eoreor is in place for each.

 

This is really tripping me out. It seems that there is no reason that it shouldn't work. I've even double checked my file to make sure that nothing got changed when I was trying to fix the other issue. It does seem as though there is an extra space in the first column after upload but I can figure why it's there as it doen't appear in the raw txt file.

try to change your delimiter to tabs (\t) and see if things improve

[Brown Knight]

you need to set the datafile to tab delimited and set easypopulate to tab delimited, not semicolon and then it should work

Why would the file be too big for my test sites (both online and locally) when it works fine on my live site???

Hi There,

 

I would like to install this contrib but im not sure on wich one is best at http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,500 I would assume that the top one is the one I want but not quite sure. Thanks for your time

[Guest]

LAst I heard 2.76 was the last stable version. Overall the contribution has turned into a mess. I tried several but 2.76 was the latest one that worked.

It really depends on what mods you have installed in yoru store. (separate price per customer, multiple image, custom meta tags, etc...)

 

I personally use several versions depending on the site I'm working on, even a 3.0 can work when correctly configured :-)

[Brown Knight]

too many cooks spoil the broth and dont know what they are doing??

anyway, what happened to the people who used to support this contribution?

[Bobster]

Does anyone know hwo to make the products appear on the front page of os commerce? using easy populate when you add new titles.

[sonictrip.net]

Im having a problem uploading Model/Price/Qty txt files after they are downloaded with EasyPopulate in the first place. I make 1 change to a price to see if it works and it doesnt change anything... Here's the error:

I have a few mods installed including Some 6 image mod with htmlarea, Linkmatics Attribute Sets, Who's Online Enhancement, Skype Us mod, CVV mod, plus a couple of others that i cant remember right now...

 

Anyone got any ideas? It's not tab based, not eoreor based, not permissions based or any of those other simple solutions... would a Windows Server be at fault here? Im so sick of them now, im changing to Linux at the next problem that arises...
