I have to let everyone know...I finally got EP to work!!!!:clap::clap:
I have to double check excel file after last column of EOREOR and make sure I delete extra columns. And anything else that could possibly mess it up. And I double check txt file for any weird errors like /, ?, etc.
Thank you so much to everyone that helped. I really appreciate it!

Hi guys
easy populate is acting like its working upload results read complete but the products don't show up on the site , previous uploads are ok but this one won't do.
Will redownloading easy populate do?
Sometime you may need to go into your admin > store manager and run "Update ALL Products Price Sorter" ... EP is supposed to do this, but I have found it unreliable. This may also be affecting some of the other questions above on why it works on a clean install and not on others.Quote:

i am running ez 1.2.5.4 + zen 1.3.8.a + php5
seens some others had this problem but have not posted a fix in the general questions post.
any help would greatly be appreciated... I have installed and re-installed 3 times.
One thing I notice is the txt file is not being saved like previous txt files some of the products and categories are next to each other like v_products_modelvproducts_image , ProductAProductB,
when it should be v_products_model vproducts_image , ProductA ProductB there is no space between many items.
ok, I deleted some files and got the install to LOOK like it worked correctly. it even downloaded a sample sheet(with correct spacing/seperating/order) into the temp folder. however, it i try to download more sheets... it goes to the admin login page.
all models have model #'s.
I'm using 1.3.8 Zen Cart and the free version of EZ Populate.
I noticed (belatedly of course) that when I download/upload the attribute report it strips the connection to the downloadable product files.
Is this an issue with the program or is it something I am doing wrong? I've looked in the attribute file for a place to put the file name but have not found it. Is it named something I'm just not connecting? Thanks!

Hi, I'm using Easy Populate and I am experiencing a strange problem when trying to use the 'Models/Attributes' part of the plugin.
I wait and end up with a Internal 500 server error.
I set the max time on the 'My Store > Admin Set max_execution_time for processes' to something very large (from 60 to 6000) but still no luck.
It doesn't work on either of the 'Stream txt file' or the 'Create txt in temp/ directory' settings.
The strange bit is I can use the 'Complete' txt part no problems.
Any ideas why only the Model/Attributes part is broken and not the complete database (its the attributes I want to download!)?
The store only has around 3-4000 items in it - is there a limit to what it will happily export? Or is the problem with the server (timeout length etc)?
Thanks,
dp
Help!!!!!!
I have now been trying to install easy populate for the last 9 hours and to no avail i have it listed in admin>configuration but not in tools everything is uploaded to my root directory i have not changed anything to do with zen cart to mkae sure i have deleted everything and reinstalled it again and everytime i use the install url i get different messages everytime all saying the same thing basically but the line number changes this is the message i get :-
Warning: require_once(includes/application_top.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/Easy/easypopulate.php on line 117
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/Easy/easypopulate.php on line 117
I am running the latest version of Zen Cart on an ubuntu 8.10 server running LAMP with direct access to anywhere on the system that i need to be also using mysql 5 and php 5.
Does anybody know where i can basically get an idiots step by step guide to install this as i currently have 3 suppliers for my stores this is going to save me a lot of time.
Thanks in Advance.:wacko:
Not sure how the "Easy" directory is coming into play...
(see the error message)
Make sure you are using EasyPopulate version 1.2.5.4
In your FTP program you will have two "frames"...
One shows the files on your LOCAL drive
The other shows the files on your SERVER.
In the Local Drive frame, navigate to the Easy Populate directory that shows the following:
ADMIN (folder)
TEMP (folder)
history.txt (file)
install.txt (file)
install_sql (file)
licence.txt (file)
readme.txt (file)
In the Remote Server frame, navigate to your root folder for you zencart installation - the folder that shows:
ADMIN
CACHE
DOWNLOADS
EDITORS
EXTRAS
IMAGES
INCLUDES
MEDIA
PUB
... in other words, make sure you are at the same folder level, by having:
ADMIN folder appear in both LEFT and RIGHT ftp frames.
Simply select:
ADMIN
TEMP
in the left frame, and click the FTP upload arrow to move them to your server.
There is no need to move the FILES, nor run the SQL (unless prompted to do so when you activate EasyPopulate in your shop admin panel.
