I use zencart1.38a, and Google Base Feeder 1.6.11,but I got this erorr
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /home/www/www.xxx.com/data/googlefroogle.php on line 452

Line 452 should be:

$_cleaner_array = array(">" => "> ", "®" => "", "®" => "", "™" => "", "™" => "", "\t" => "", "    " => "");

Line 452 should be:

$_cleaner_array = array(">" => "> ", "®" => "", "®" => "", "™" => "", "™" => "", "\t" => "", "    " => ""); 

yes, I replace Line 452,but I got a blank page when I create products feed.

I finally got it work, but still have a question.

When I set up a cron job to get the the googlefeeder file, I get this error:

500 EOF when chunk header expected

Also, when I try to do the Create/Upload Feed through the zen cart admin, 90% of the time it'll do this:

A word to the wise: Update Google Product Search (daily)

I have a catalog of products that hasn't changed much in a month or two. I've been busy on other projects. Because nothing changed i didn't update/submit froogle feed.

I used to be one of the first products listed for common searches. I go back and lo and behold I was DROPPED!

So, lesson learned. Do the cron job task mentioned on the admin page and this won't happen to you.

Postscript: I resubmitted after being dropped and all my reviews came back and it looks like my position was restored. I was re-listed about 24hrs after I resubmitted.

Live and learn!

Nevermind, had to use mget and it fixed the problem.

ok. I have updated to the latest version of google feeder (11). And I am still having issues uploading. I can manually do it, but not from the web interface. Eventually I will cron job it.

When I upload products a pop-up window opens and reads:

Google Base Feeder v.1.6.11 03.27.2008 00:05:59 started 2008/04/02 07:52:42
Feed file - /home/content/i/n/k/inkuyo/html/feed/googlebasehd_products.xml
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - Yes
Upload started...

in the lower left it is processing for a little bit, then reads done. Nothing ever uploads and I get no errors. Any ideas?

Actually it's still doing this to me. Does the google feeder have trouble with big files? I have about 16,000 items and google feeder and cron job have seemed to stop creating and uploading the xml file to Google Base once I jumped from 11,000 items to 16,000.
