Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[confused_aswell]

Hi

Can you tell me how to do that, I have looked in the config for googlefroogle but can't see anything.

Also, in config should the google base server be - uploads.google.com or hedwig.google.com?

Thanks,

Phil

Search through the configuration settings. It wil be referred to as PASV or Passive.

Hi

I changed the PASV to false and it uploaded ok, mind you it took about 4-5minutes to upload 90 products!

Thanks,

Phil

That would be the result of slow hosting

[confused_aswell]

Hi

That's fine then. As long as it works ok.

Thanks for the support.

2.) 2.) Then I go here..Upload Product Feed: Click [HERE] to upload products feed to Google Base.

.and get this message..

3.) Then I go over to Google/Froogle, and I created , "before I did step 1 and 2, an account with google and named my file froogle_products.xml

Here are my settings in google account I set up with them

Filename (cannot be edited): froogle_products.xml
Target country: United States
Feed format: googlebase
File format: XML

......When I go there to see if it worked, It says it failed, and I get this error message..

( Failed

, I am not editing any files in Excel, all I do is upload my products to the website via easy populate, then I do steps 1 and 2 noted above in this thread...

The file that googlebase is creating I think in Zen cart was saved in my (Control Panel) /public_html/shop/feed

and its called froogle_products.xml , and that is what is trying to be downloaded via google base feeder from my zen cart shop add on I am assuming based on my premises from above.....

So does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong...?

O yea, my catalog contains about 19,000 products.
