check to see if the file googlefroogle.php was uploaded to the folder

/home/herbschi/public_html/zen/admin/

[marvin]

Yes the file was uploaded.

When I run the feed in the admin tools, I now get this result:

OK. Some progress. (DISREGARD THE POST JUST ABOVE THIS ONE.

Changed configuration output directory to: GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY

configuration Output file name is: herbschina


When I run the feed in "Admin-tools" The output file name is - GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_OUTPUT_FILENAME_products.xml ?? shouldn't this be "herbschina_products.xml"??

Changed configuration output directory to: GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY

GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY is simply a directive in the googlefroogle.php file that tells the feed to load the file in the folder selected in the configuration. It is not a directory itself.

Warning: opendir(/home/herbschi/public_html/zen/GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/herbschi/public_html/zen/xxxxxxx/googlefroogle.php on line 185

What this message means is that the directive was unable to execute because it could not find the folder. This would happen because either a) The folder doesn't exist, b) The folder name doesn't match the name in the configuration, or c) The folder permissions are wrong.

Set the folder name in the configuration to feed/. Then make sure a folder named feed is in the root of your store - zen/feed. Then make sure the permissions are set correctly, try either 755 or 777.

I'm having the same issue and currently have 0 products on google! 1.3.8a
I have tried many different combinations. I have created a define in inc/lang/eng/googlefroogle.php to take care of the feed output name displaying incorrectly.

The WARNING still appears like the one above mentioned. The config does not work with both the feed/ or feed/google/ as the file directory. feed/ is present on the root folder with google/ inside it.

Why does the feed not grab it's info from the config correctly? I am quite sure I uploaded everything right including the SQL update of 1.10.2

[marvin]

ok. I changed the output directory to feed/. The permissions are set to 777.

My output file name (in Configuration is- herbschina

The popup confirmation window shows the following:

strange - basically I can change the output directory in config to anything I want , it really doesn't matter. The feed still spits out GOOGLE_PRODUCTS_DIRECTORY. It's my gut feeling that the feed is not properly talking with the config to figure out what the directory even is or what is defined in the config.
frustrating.
where is the output directory stored once you edit it in config for the feed to grab from?
