Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[BlessIsaacola]

I am getting this error when generating the xml file: [Wed Aug 15 18:45:13 2007] [error] PHP Warning: chmod() [<a href='function.chmod'>function.chmod</a>]: Operation not permitted in googlefroogle.php on line 67

Any ideas?

Did you manually create your feed file?

The mod now creates the feed file for you. Delete your file in your server and re-run the script.

I'm running Zen Cart 1.3.5 and have uploaded Google Base Feeder v1.5.2 and applied all the sql scripts I checked the tables and they seem to be in proper form.

I have the admin->tools->Google Base Feeder menu however there is no amin->configuration->google froogle configuration menu to configure the module. Any ideas what could be the issue?

So the mod does not overwite the existing file? Strange.

So every time one has to update the feed, the existing feed file must be deleted first?

Or am I misunderstanding the above statement?

No, it just needs to create the file itself in order to be able to chmod it. It was a bug on my part to include the created file in the feed folder. This should be fixed in the documentation in the next version, if or when it's released.

I installed v1.5.2 following instructions,
installed googlefroogle.sql no problems, but when I try to install
update_1_5_2.sql I get the following error:

1062 Duplicate entry 'GOOGLE_BASE_WEIGHT' for key 2
in:
[INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_id, configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added, use_function, set_function) VALUES (NULL, 'Show Weight', 'GOOGLE_BASE_WEIGHT', 'false', 'Include products weight?', @configuration_group_id, 33, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'true\', \'false\'),'), (NULL, 'Weight Units', 'GOOGLE_BASE_UNITS', 'pounds', 'What unit of weight measure?
pounds OR kilograms', @configuration_group_id, 33, NOW(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'pounds\', \'kilograms\'),');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Also, in Zen Cart Admin I have Google Base Feeder Configuration option, but under Tools, I have no entry for GBF (I also had this same problem with Windows Live Feeder and have not yet resolved it either).

Hi there - I'm a bit new to all this. I just upgraded my store to 1.3.7 and after a long weekend sorting the template out I'd like to add googlefroogle.php. I used to use feedcreator.php but I had to do this manually each month.

I've downloaded it but the readme has only basic installation instructions. It just says download and unzip in your store directory. Do I need to create a new folder? What then - I assume it dosen't automatically appear in the admin unless I add some files somewhere.

Sorry to sound like a total newbie but any help greatly appreciated.

You only need to run the update SQL if you are upgrading from v1.5.1. If you have already run the googlefroogle.sql, you have done a fresh reinstall of the SQL and are already at v1.5.2.

Upload the files and folders to your store's root directory except for the sql files, and readme.txt.
