:frusty::I have installed google base froogle feeder 1-7-4 on my test sit and it works fine, but on my live sit when i run it, my home page comes up. I have un instald and reinstald?
Google just rejected my feed. It has been working fine but now there is this required condition attribute... I am using a version of the add on that has the condition option in the control panel and it is set to "new" but when I check the feed that attribute isn't included...
Any idea what's up?
After i upload my file, I get this warning from google base:
"Warning: Missing recommended attribute: upc"
it still posts the products.. any suggestions? thanks!
Hello all!
4th July 2009 my Google account stoping. in message write "Processing..." and not result five days; products not display in Base. what is it may be?
early work good, but now all my six GB accounts with this issue.
Can someone help my google feed always used to work but the last couple of months it hasn't been working properly, I have the newest version.
My information matches. I get:
Google Base Feeder v1.7.4 started 2009/07/13 09:51:34
Feed file - /home4/MYINFO/public_html/feed/MYDOMAIN_products.xml
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - Yes
Upload started...
Connection failed: uploads.google.com
Upload failed...
Can't figure this out read the forum can't fix this
I started having problems with my feed since the new google change with requiring the "condition" attribute. Even though I had it set to "New" in the settings, it would not show up in the xml feed. I was using v1.6.8 with no problems until recently.
Yesterday I downloaded the latest version, uninstalled the one i had and installed the new one.
Now when i try to create the product feed, it doesn't do anything and says
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - No
What is the problem, what do I need to look at to fix it so that it can create the xml feed again?
I need help to add GOOGLE BASE to my website, after I download it, where and how do I install it? alittle step by step will help.
Thank you
Follow these direction step by step.

Tips
To have this update and automatically upload to Google Base, you
will need to set up a Cron job via your host's control panel.
To run it as a cron job (i.e. at 5:00am), put something in your crontab like the
following:
0 5 * * * GET http://your_http_catalog/googlefroog...?feed=fy_uy_tp
or
0 5 * * * wget http://your_http_catalog/googlefroog...?feed=fy_uy_td
or
0 5 * * * curl -s http://your_http_catalog/googlefroog...?feed=fy_uy_tn
If your host has disabled cron jobs, try webcron services such as http://www.webcron.org/
Troubleshooting
1. If your script is timing out, in the root of your server (not store root), create/open a file called php.ini and add the following lines:
max_execution_time = 300
max_input_time = 90
memory_limit = 32M
2. If you are having issues with the FTP function, please contact your host to make sure all the required ports for PHP FTP functions are open.
3. If you are seeing constants in the ADMIN->CONFIGURATION or ADMIN->TOOLS (i.e. BOX_GOOGLEFROOGLE), then you are missing a definitions file.
Reupload the files by overwriting the old ones.
4. If the FTP function is timing out, as indicated by a timeout error, increase the timeout length in admin->googlefroogle.php near the beginning of the file.
5. For additional troubleshooting, please visit the support thread, read the entire thread for existing bugs or installation support before posting your questions.
