Easy Populate From osc

[milobloom]

I did not see a support thread for this module..
So I thought I would start my own.

Easy Populate Advance2.76d-mod3a Zen-Cart 1.3.x - Default Language English(1)

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=460

Not to be confused with Langer's version from Mod Hole.

I tried installing this mod on a fresh install of Zencart and it seemed to work okay. (The only bug I see is that it doesnt save the Sort Order of my attribute names, However the products with attributes do upload and download just fine.

The problem I am having is on my heavily modified version of zen cart.
On the 2nd site, It seemed to work perfect.
I get this message after importing 1 Record (Which I know the file was correct because I exported it from the clean site) This is the output it gave me

No products_id field in record. This line was not imported

I thought I did everything right.

I set temp/ to 777
I also changed all the items in that folder to 777 as if that would do anything.
I made a folder named tmp/ and chmod it to 777
(nothing ever goes into there)

I also tried uploading the file to the temp directory. EP saw that it was there.
But when I processed the file it gave me the same thing. No errors. Looked like it went in perfectly, yet the product was nowhere to be found.

I tried downloading all the products to the temp folder.
To try to download the products and move them to my other site...
I would start fresh if I could get all my products in... (With Attributes means that much to me..)
But I get this error when I tried.

If I try downloading the complete file to my hard drive I get 75 listings and this error (Inside my file)

I never got this to work which was disappointing since I could add attributes with the main listing and had some other cool features. This could be from my super heavily modded cart, though. I can't remember the problem, it was either that it would create new categories but not the products or it would create the cats and products but without prices. Either way, I had to uninstall it and revert to 1.2.5.4. Once I finish getting my shop completely set up I plan on digging through the osc version's code to see if I can figure it out.

Sigh....




I hope you ( or someone else ) can figure this out.
IMHO its a landmark mod.

I tested this mod just now.
I tried to add attributes to products but after update non of the products where displayed on the site any more.

Admin side all products where in their correct departments though.

milobloom,

in your posted text I see no EOF's or probably EOR'S

Good point, however I think there was in the upload sheet.
All I did was download the products from 1 site and uploaded it to another.
(1 was a clean install and the other was my heavily modified database)

People have been telling me they get alot worse problems like Prices not showing etc...

Perhaps Langer or someone else could follow up on this mod.
I don't think it should be in the download section if its not fully functional or at least have propper documentation.

[Merlinpa1969]

Milo its been working

and yes there is no line ending,
each line needs to end in EOREOR

[marksu]

Any pointer for me to my problem_

I have temp folder rights 777 and when running the update file no error are displayed.

Product is modified but some reason on shop side all products are removed from all product departments.

In admin side they seem to bee in their right departments.

I would prefer to use this instead of the original built cause of the attributes support.
I wish not to buy the EPA version.

Hi Merlin,

For sure the ported osc mod works correctly? I tried it and couldn't get it to work correctly, tried a number of times without any success. If it does indeed work then perhaps there is some clash with one of my many mods. I looked at the main EP file in admin and it was very different from the 1.2.5.4 file so I didn't try to tackle figuring out what difference was not allowing the prices and products to be listed properly. Perhaps when I finish entering my products and setting up the cross sells and better together I'll go through it all again if I know that this mod really works like it's supposed to.

Thanks!

Please follow up with the results. My site is very heavily modified as well. If someone like you can get it done, I am sure it would be passable for others like me as well.
