I have a new problem ...
The module was working fine ... but a few days ago, the script used to automate my site products, stop working?

The two scripts are added to the exclusions in config:

Excluded Files
List of Files to be Excluded:

This is a comma-separated list of paths to files which will not be processed by Ceon URI Mapping.

As standard, the following paths to files are excluded for this store:

/electronics/ipn_main_handler.php, /electronics/nochex_apc_handler.php, /electronics/localities_remote_loader.php, /electronics/iridium_3d_secure_iframe.php, /electronics/protx_direct_3d_secure_iframe.php, /electronics/realex_remote_3d_secure_iframe.php, /electronics/sage_pay_direct_3d_secure_iframe.php.

Add any other files to be excluded by entering their full [web-side] paths below. The paths will be treated as case-insensitive.

/electronics/xmlPopulate_zencart.php, /electronics/xmlPopulate_zencart_db.php

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a snippet from xmlPopulate_zencart.php
PHP Code:
session_unregister('navigation');
require(
'includes/application_top.php');

// ******** Added by Hambir only for Zencart version of xmlPopulate
// include the database functions
require('xmlPopulate_zencart_db.php');

// make a connection to the database... now
  
tep_db_connect() or die('Unable to connect to database server!'); 
The problem is it's working randomly ... sometimes I get this:

'Xml request data needed to process this file'

when I execute the file, which is fine because it means the script is responding ... but only a few times ... in many tries ...
most of the time I just get the storefront!

I read al CEON URI docs and it says to exclude this file, if it's a 'foreign module' but how about this case? It starts with the app top require but if I remove it from the exceptions it simply doesn't work and if I add it like above works randomly ...
