EP4+ZC1.5.8a
EasyPopulate-4.0-4.0.37.13

When I go to Tools and click on Easy Populate 4, all I get is a blank screen. Have used this program on 4 or 5 other sites and never had any problems.

There are two known issues with that arrangement with a potential third depending on the mySql configuration. The two problems are addressed by review of almost any of the recent pages of this thread. An updated version not having those problems is referenced a few posts ago, available from github.

For clarity, I expect when stating that have a blank page that mean entirely blank, not just blank below the menu bar?

Re: EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread

I tried both versions, the one in ZC Plugins, and the one from github.
Page is completely blank. Even tried to look at the page source, shows nothing.

The url listed in the browser for the blank page is: index.php?cmd=easypopulate_4

What was the attempted file placement for the one on github? If solely placed in the zc_plugins directory, then the previous version located in the admin directory must be removed. Also with it in the zc_plugins directory, it would need to be installed using the plugin manager.

If all of the admin files were placed in the admin (overwriting the older version) then that's something to work out because I have tried installing both ways with success on php 8.3.

Side note, generally speaking I would expect some sort of admin side debug log to be generated in the logs directory because of the blank screen. The contents of that (minus specific identification of the admin directory) would be helpful to us both. :)

=================================

It was the missing: EASYPOPULATE_4_CONFIG_TEMP_DIR. I created it and refreshed the admin page and now it works. From the install.txt file, I thought if the directory was not there it would give me an error. Still learning ZC at 78 !! :wacko:

So, I might have expected the same and in my testing I didn't come across that hard stop error. I see what can be changed to prevent that response. It is to change the if statement in line 165 to first check if logging should happen and then validate the folder exists before entering that area. I'll also look further downstream for similar issue...

Thank you for your reporting!!!

Greetings!

I am having a small problem installing easy pop

All files have been installed and I created a "temp" folder in my admin where I put the .htaccess file. Easy populate 4 shows up in my tools but when I click on it I get an http error 500 so I'm unable to install ep4 configuration data

There should be a log generated. I personally would expect it to be in your ZC logs folder, but it may be in your temp directory where EP4 files are accessed.

Is this a new install, an upgrade, something else?

It's a new install. Yes, there was a generated log:
