I seem to be having a problem with easypopulate 4.0 I have it installed on another web site and have no problems at all but on my new site I can't seem to get it to work. I am running

zen 1.5
PHP Version: 5.2.17 (Zend: 2.2.0) PHP Memory Limit: 99M

and have installed Easy Populate 4.0.19 - Beta 1-28-2012 whenever i try to upload my products I get the following message:

Import Results


Filename: Full-EP2012Apr04-110754.csv

No model field in record. This line was not imported these Ana |
No model field in record. This line was not importedthese grad | soft ana | yet fast p | an explosi | then the b |

Execution Time: 0.00957083702087 seconds.

I have tried uninstalling the program first through tools/easypopulate and then it tells me that I am missing the configuration file and to click to install I have done that and no change I have also manually removed all ep 4.0 files reset "optimize database" and have download a fresh copy of ep 4.0 and no changes

I have even tried to manually enter a couple of products and then download new "Complete Products (with Metatags)" file edited it in openoffice with more products and uploaded to my site and still get the same message that "No model field in record. This line was not imported these Ana | "

wj694,

Could you either attach a portion of your csv file, or PM it to me so I can check your file format? These situations nearly always are the result of something wrong in the CSV.

Here is a copy of my csv file also one thing that I noticed between the databases for my 2 sites is the one that is working I have zen_ as the prefix for all the tables where as the site that ep 4.0 does not work on does not have this could this be the problem?

It should not. That is handle behind the scenes via the zencart inner functions.

After a quick look, it seems you exported your CSV incorrectly. You select TAB Delimited. Change this to Comma Delimited and it should work.

Thank you chadd I will try this and let you know

wj694,

Your file will work, but you should know that your product names are longer than 64 characters. Have you modded your database to handle long names? You CAN do this, and EP will let you know if your data violates a number of conditions like this .... especially Category Names where is can cause real havoc!

P.S. to all readers: This is a perfect example of THE most common import problem. A simple error in your exported file. It is also why I request a sample of your data or working file because I can usually spot the problem VERY quickly.

I am trying to install the EP 4.0 on my ZenCArt 1.5 but for some reason it's not working.
I downloaded a template and my page is KDMproject.com
I used filezilla to upload the content of admin to my remamed admind folder and I also uploaded the zencart 1.5 extra files to my root directory.

You have to maintain the file structure of the additional files for zen 1.5 ... just like you did for the "admin" directory. These don't go in the ROOT, but YOUR admin directory.

The additional file are different for 1.38/1/39 and 1.5 so be sure you correctly upload the right files.
