Got ZC installed, EP4 installed..no hiccups.

Formatted my CSV file from source data from a Shopify workflow, and ready to imports...cant:


Filename: ZC1.csv

SKIPPED! - v_products_model: 000-043-010-00 - No category provided for this new product
SKIPPED! - v_products_model: 000-043-204-94 - No category provided for this new product
SKIPPED! - v_products_model: 000-043-306-04 - No category provided for this new product
SKIPPED! - v_products_model: 000-044-000-04 - No category provided for this new product


Man..it LOOKS good..ive used OpenOffice to save this file as well as Excel, same issue in both worlds.

The noted category does in fact exist, I sense no issues, yet..there is an issue.

Im at the end of "learning" in the thread and in google for the moment..been a few hrs digging away at it.

TY for your time.

Do your settings look something like: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....95#post1396195 ?
Does the issue go away when the direction of three part that followed is performed? (https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....97#post1396197)

The values are the same except for #Records that I increased. (Ill be doing massive uploads and I have bare metal and resources)

I just made the change to "language_id_only"

And THAT works. :)

And yup, those 5 worked..and a test of 5600 more just fine.

TY

Duplicate. :(

And then this happens.

Saved from open office, no changes other than a few 100k things added to the spreadsheet.

In this example, row 1 works.
Row 2 does not work.

They are functionally identical.

General EP question.

While doing a large import, apache is taking a lot of resources...

What is the WWW server doing during an import that makes IT so busy?

One thing that is happening while importing is that basically empty characters are being sent to the browser to keep the connection alive. The historical suggestion was to split large files into snake chunks. As development of the software continued, this alternative was implemented. The quantity or load may possibly be reduced. Though to date I believe this is the first such feedback received.

I'm not sure yet what characteristic would be best to monitor to reduce that traffic, whether a time, number of iterations or start value from either would be "ideal". Of course other ideas are welcome.

Ya..I mean, it doesnt break anything, but 75% of a CPU for apache2 is...busy.

On the lookout for things I need to know as I relearn the ZC environment.

Im doing EP4 imports, and I have a log file getting _hammered_ with this (attached)
