500 - Internal Server Error when adding products via EasyPopulate

As I said earlier in this thread, the "cause" of the "500" error will be shown in your server's errorlog.

I was having the same problem with my hosting company. Running SQL 5 They told me that the timeout limit was set to 60 seconds and that was causing the 500 error as well as my SQL limits were maxing out as I did the uploads. My work around was to reinstall zencart and easy populate. After that just upload 1000 records per hour tx sizes of 300 but i start doing 2 500 txt files each hour today. So far it is working for me. Not sure if you getting same error for same reason but i did find this to work for me.

Good Luck

If your host is so underpowered that they can't give you larger or unlimited query limits, you might be able to work around that limitation use this approach: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24089

I am having a similar problem when I try to add products using the Easy Populate upload. I initially tried to upload approx 10,000 items. I received the "500 - Internal Server Error", however it did upload approx 6,000 of the items. I cannot seem to get it to work for the rest. I have even tried a few test uploads of just 1 item and it still does not work. I am hosted through GoDaddy and I cannot figure out how to correct this problem. I am fairly new to Zen Cart, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

i'm having the same issue with easy populate. it manage to upload the first two files of 4000 items completely, and subsequent files couldn't be loaded in entirety, often only 2000+ out of 4000 items got uploaded.

any advice?
