Hello all,
I'm trying to upload revised product descriptions. In Admin - Tools - Easy Populate it shows the upload completing without any errors but when I go to my product descriptions none of my changes are showing.
Has anyone seen this issue before?? If so... how did you resolve it?
Any help would be appreciated.
ZC 1.3.8
PHP 5.2
MySQL 5.0.81
The previous discussions where people had upload issues using an Apple computer that I could find all say you cannot use a MAC to create the file. The truth is: you cannot use Excel on a MAC but you do have options. I use "Numbers" to output the csv file - worked fine for EP 1.2.5.6!!
I try not to give up until I have spent at least 2 days at something. :)
Hi,
Trying to install Easy Populate v1.2.5.6 on Zc v1.3.8 and I get these error msgs when I type in ?langer=install in my browser:
EASYPOPULATE_MSGSTACK_INSTALL_KEYS_FAIL
Warning EASYPOPULATE_MSGSTACK_TEMP_FOLDER_MISSING
Warning EASYPOPULATE_MSGSTACK_INSTALL_CHMOD_FAIL
I have tempEP CHMOD setting at 777, in my root directory (same as my store)
Do I need to install the MySql patch or do I have something else wrong?
thanks in advance.
EZ Pop can run with teh temp folder at 755 instead of 777: many hosts won't allow code to run if folders are set at 777.Quote:

Make sure the tempEP folder is there. Check that the temp folder is set in configuration/ easy pop. You might have a "tempEP" folder and it's set for "tmp" or something.

Thanks for the quick reply, I changed my tempEP folder to 755 and re-uploaded all the files.
My temp folder's name is 'tempEP', do I rename that to temp and it is is my root directory same as my store.
Same error message.
Do I need to install the 'install_sql' file? Upload or via phpMyAdmin?
How do I know which file is the configure file to check what the name of temp folder should be?
Thanks for your help.
Remove the EP from the end of your temp folder. It is /temp and it cannot be anything else.Quote:

Part#21-496 - for Audi A3
also
Part#21-496 - for VW GTI
in Easy populate i file these under 2 seperate categories, Audi and VW.
The part# (model#) stays same, but i change the description of the product to read 1. for audi a3 2. for vw GTI
but EZ populate just overwrites this and makes both products "for VW GTI.
basically,
1. How to make EZ populate NOT to overwrite the descriptions?
2. How to make EZ populate create DUPLICATE (not linked) products instead?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Good luck.
My friend your store for car parts I think is like my store with many items
I become boring of easy populate
I use now Storemanager from the company Magneticone and the true is very easy upgrade products and also import 1000 of products with also images.
is not a free product but also is not really expensive.
For me solve many days of update products Now I make in few clicks
Try I using now Free for 30 days but I really I go to buy . Zen cart become really porwerfull
