lee the bean Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Version osc_4_03_50306 Installed on wamp server. No problems. Followed migration instructions (from osc2. No problems connecting and importing data). However: 1. OSCommerce Connector Service ------------------------------- Start import for Products... Expecting: 2065 Import was interrupted due an error: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() Imported 60/2065 products Repeated, same error. No errors logged in php log 2. Importing Brands ---------------- manufacturers id not imported - thus manufacturers names are added in alphabetical order starting at manufacturers_id 24. ocs2 starting products_id = 92 (FOSS-0051) osc4 starting products_id = 76 (VIRTUAL_GIFT_CARD); (77 = CPEB-0047) osc4 last products_id = 136 (CTUM-0178a) ocs2 products_id = 156 -->> 136 osc4 osc2 products table CTUM-0178a --> manufacturers_id = 150 osc4 products table CTUM-0178a --> manufacturers_id = 150 (hasn't added products_seo_page_name). This is last product imported befor error. Products end up with incorrect manufacturers assisned. 3. Reviews not attached to products: --------------------------------- reviews table - most products_id values are set to 0 (may be due to products not imported - as in 1 above) 4. Customer Addresses incorrect Counties: -------------------------------------- osc2 zones table zone_id Stafordshire = 270 / Hertfordshire = 227 osc4 zones table zone_id Stafordshire = 227 / Hertfordshire = 205 5. Copied watch theme to amend to requirements. Pressing Widget Groups button on copied theme: ----------------------------- Error An internal server error occurred. The above error occurred while the Web server was processing your request. Please contact us if you think this is a server error. Thank you. 6. Logo 404's on copied watch theme: --------------------------------- <div class="logo"> <img src="//themes\new-theme-name\img\\header.gif" alt="Company Name" style="border: none"> <div> Although ok when editing theme or Preview in popup. Have to remove first / (ie /themes\new-theme-name\img\\header.gif) for it to work. 7. Products attributes: ------------------- osc2 options_weight not mapped to osc4 products_attributes_weight osc2 options_quantity not mapped at all! Not including quantity values for options is a major omission. This was a mod to osc2 and works very well maintaining separate quantities for every product option. 8. Noticed <header> section incudes reply-to email address. Haven't explored if this is configurable but if not then another problem, as personally I don't have email addresses available on any page for spam scrappers to access. Users directed to contact us page only. General observation - so distant (but most likely vastly improved) from osc2 wouldn't it have been better to launch under new Branding. Not really progressed further than playing with menus and getting head around the theme logistics, so no doubt more problems lurking 9. Product description table Multiple entries with same products_id Edited August 18, 2022 by lee the bean jasonlavis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what this reply means, but looking through previous topics - no import problems seemed to apply. Only the product import failed/errored (60 out of 2065 populated in osc4 Db). The rest of the problems are post import observations. jasonlavis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expecting: 2065 Import was interrupted due an error: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() Could you send me in pm the log files located at lib\common\extensions\OscLink\logs\* 2. 1 hour ago, lee the bean said: manufacturers id not imported - thus manufacturers names are added in alphabetical order starting at manufacturers_id 24. The IDs are not imported directly, because you can already have ID with imported value. In you case you had 23 manufacturers (probably test products) before start import. It does not matter if you deleted them before import. 3. 1 hour ago, lee the bean said: reviews table - most products_id values are set to 0 (may be due to products not imported - as in 1 above) You are right, the products must be successfully imported before. A good news - you can reimport products and reviews after we fix the error. 4. 1 hour ago, lee the bean said: osc2 zones table zone_id Stafordshire = 270 / Hertfordshire = 227 osc4 zones table zone_id Stafordshire = 227 / Hertfordshire = 205 The answer the same as in point 2. 5. 1 hour ago, lee the bean said: Pressing Widget Groups button on copied theme: ----------------------------- Error Please send us the following log files: lib/backend/runtime/logs/app.log lib/frontend/runtime/logs/app.log 6. 1 hour ago, lee the bean said: 6.

Could you send me in pm the log files located at lib\common\extensions\OscLink\logs\* 5. Please send us the following log files: lib/backend/runtime/logs/app.log lib/frontend/runtime/logs/app.log The amended products.php worked - thanks pandrei, all products imported. However product_descriptions table still has 8 entries per product (1 good, 7 NULLs), as per earlier entry and even on all products now imported. Further observations: 1. Tools --> DB Backup button does nothing (although restore brings up Restore local options). 2. Not all products_attributes table columns imported (attached image is osc2 table). Product Options not appearing on product page (configurable?) 3. I would say that at the moment it wouldn't be possible to do a clean swap from osc2 --> osc4. For example: seo product page url structure changed so would loose google indexed pages (osc2 -> /product-name-p-product_id.html - /agate-apricot-tumblestone-p-1403.html) need to provide 'empty database tables' option so all osc2 imported data that uses osc2 ids get imported (products_id, manufacturers_id, orders_id, reviews_id, customers_id etc etc) else nothing marrys up. 4. Backend links to front end are adding double slash (eg preview product) to localhost (ie http://localhost//agate-apricot-tumblestone). Could this be due to the installation sales channel url (default was / which I left for localhost)? 5. I have a mod in osc2 products.php to load a 360 image Preview.html file via iframe if the folder and file exist (in a configurable folder location in configuration.php), using the products_model as location folder/file structure. Is it possible to do this local mod myself and if so which file needs the mod in osc4?

You can write an extension (\common\extensions), intercept product showing via hooks and maybe modify theme by overwriting a widget for showing product image. jasonlavis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to import Product Options entity before Products. Otherwise these columns will be empty. Sorry, I should have highlighted the columns in the earlier osc2 image, and I followed the import instructs to the tee, so options where imported first. osc4 products_attributes_weight - no values populated, osc2 equivalent column = options_weight (from contribution) osc4 no options_quantity column (from osc2 contribution) oscom-quantity-for-product-attributes-mod 4) You can correct it by changing SEO Page Name field in the SEO tab while editing product.
