Are you able to tell when you downloaded the software? The above content visually looks right. I'm wondering if there was a logic error in the version obtained where the error was displayed for a file that met the conditions and not when it didn't.

I tried 2 nights ago with a fresh download and compared it to an 11-2018 download with same results.

I posted back in April 2018 with the same problem. I fixed it by using an older version I had. The Zencart version was on 1.5.5, either e or f .
I no longer have that older version so I cannot revert to that one.

Is there a specific PHP version this has to run on?

[wtfbbq]

I just tested the current zip on github with a clean install of 1.5.6a and it still shows the same import error.

[wtfbbq]

Luckily, I found the older version that works is still available in the plugin section of the forum.

This one still works fine and works with 1.5.6a.
EasyPopulate V4 - Version: 4.0.36.ZC

The version on GIT HUB Easy Populate 4.0.37.6 - 02-08-2017 does not work and has the import error.
If you have time maybe you can look into this issue and find what is the problem.

In the meantime the solution for anyone with the same problem is to use the version listed above.

I do have a number of updates to push to the github version, and as I said, I believe that there was at one point a reverse logic applied to the file check. I've added two significant features that I need to be sure to test before posting the full change to the ZC site. One is using the admin sanitization during import of the file data, another is the use of identifying a language by its two letter designation instead of using its languages_id, while maintaining the possibility of the old method. Ie. Once again expanding on the capability to maximize existing processes.

Not sure if I purposefully left that issue as the current load or not. Wouldn't put it past me to do that so that the use of the incomplete code wouldn't bungle someone's database. I can take the heat for there being software that doesn't "do" anything better than it knowingly messing up someone's database.

In the last week, there have been at least two posts about difficulty with importing files. The message import error appears where the import button typically is. In both cases the files to be imported have had a space in the filename.

It is recommended that filenames not include spaces. I intend to see what it would take to support a filename having a space, even if that is a method to rename the file.
