Hi all,

 

I'm installing easypopulate 2.61 on MS2 latest CVS. I've come across two problems:

 

1) I can generate the .txt file in the temp directory just fine. But when I try to stream it to save it on my machine instead, I get an error:

 

Internet Explorer cannot download p?download=stream&dltype=full from ... (secure site name replaced with ...)

 

I noticed that I get this error when I'm logged into admin using https but not when I log in using http. I'm wondering if it has to do with the fact that my secure site is located at secure. instead of www.

 

 

2) I noticed that easypopulate seems to ignore any catalog items in the top level in the catalog (those that aren't in categories or subcategories). I normally would have all my items in categories but I was just testing things so I had only created one item and it wasn't in a category.

 

If anyone has any thoughts on these issues I'd love to hear them!

 

Cheers

Robert

To allow download of the export files in easypopulate when using SSL / HTTPS with Internet Exploder.

 

Change http header setting for pragma in easypopulate.php

 

 

// now either stream it to them or put it in the temp directory
if ($download == 'stream'){
//*******************************
// STREAM FILE
//*******************************
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=$EXPORT_TIME.txt");
//  header("Pragma: no-cache");  comment out or delete this line
header("Pragma: ");  // add this line
header("Expires: 0");
echo $filestring;
die();
} else {
//*******************************
// PUT FILE IN TEMP DIR
//*******************************

while (!succeed) {try()};

I have tried your suggestion but i seem to get an

 

error 500: Internal Server Error

 

 

The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

 

 

any ideas

TomThumb's fix worked great for me. Previously, Safari and IE on a Mac OS X machine would download the database just fine, but IE for Windows would not. Now, it seems that all browsers are happy.

 

I wonder if someone can integrate this into the contribution to prevent somebody's frustration in the future?

I am having trouble getting the easypopulate to work.

 

I have oscommerce 2.2 MS2, which version of easypopulate should I be installing?

 

Whatever I have tried hasn't worked....so I am starting over again.

I was having the error downloading from Admin until I ran across this thread and implemented your fix. THANKS!
