Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[countrycharm]

I just installed 1.7 on Zen 1.3.8a. Origonally I tried upgrading from 1.6.7 but had a few issues so I decided to remove 1.6.7 and install fresh. After running the uninstall.sql for 1.6.7 , overwriting all the files with new 1.7 files and setting up my Google Base account info again I get an error when trying to generate a product feed.
Basically the last line in the pop up windows states....

Processing: Feed - No, Upload - No

I have uploaded the new files 3 times now, and have tried rerunning the .sql script as many and Im stumped.
One other thing I am noticing is that the first line of the feed generation pop up windows is this:
Google Base Feeder v.1.6.16 07.03.2008 23:40:59 started 2008/10/06 00:55:40
Shouldnt that say v.1.7 ??

I have this on a local test server in my office as well and the feed generation works but the upload does not. Same info though on the line above-- Google Base Feeder v.1.6.16

Any suggestion in what may be causing this? Im not as concerned about versioning info as long as the feed generation works.

TIA

This may help you.
1. BACK UP YOUR DATABASE
2. Go into PHPMYADMIN browse the 'configuration' table
3. Sort by 'configuration_key'
4. Delete all rows that contain configuration_keys that begin with GOOGLE_BASE or GOOGLE_FROOGLE
5. Run the install for the latest version Google Base Feeder v1.7.0

That seems to be what my problem was. After clearing out the DB as noted and re running the .sql install all is good.
Thanks countrycharm!!!!!

Another method, rather than deleting the rows is to go into your configuration_group table and find what configuration_group_id has been given to Google Base.

Then, go into your configuration table and find the GOOGLE keys that have a configuration_group_id = 0 and set this to the configuration_group_id from the first step above.

This method is faster but involves a little more knowledge of navigating PHPMYADMIN.

What version are you using? If you are not using the lastest version you can try it. I was having the same problem and the latest version seem to fix most of it. You can download it from here
