Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

Or is that pesky admin setting that still show up mean I may mess up my DB?

If you are talking about the settings under configuration, the install sql will probably not run completely. The only way to completely rid yourself of that is to go into the database itself.

Using phpmyadmin or similar interface, first, look at your configuration groups table and find the one for the feeder. Note the group id for it.

Then go to the configuration table. Do a search for that group id and then delete what shows up. You can also then delete that group id in the groups table.

Suggestion though: also do a search in the config table for a group id of 0. If you have results, check to see if any of those look like they are for the feeder. If so , delete them. If you have others, they also may need deleting. Having a group id of 0 means those settings don't show up in the admin and are usually from botched installs. I have had to do this for the google feeder install before.

Actually there is a way to get rid of all the configurations by running these 3 SQL scripts in admin/tools/install_sql+patches.

Run these first

DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key LIKE 'GOOGLE_BASE%'; 
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_key LIKE 'GOOGLE_FROOGLE%'; 

Then

SET @configuration_group_id=0;
SELECT @configuration_group_id:=configuration_group_id
FROM configuration_group
WHERE configuration_group_title= 'Google Base Feeder Configuration'
LIMIT 1;
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = @configuration_group_id AND configuration_group_id != 0;
DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = @configuration_group_id AND configuration_group_id != 0; 

Then install whatever version of google base you are trying to install.

Dang - much easier! Thanks. I get heavily involved in fixing carts so tent to go further than the average bear might!
