Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

[sobebabies]

From time to time Google performs maintenance and does not accept updates to feed files. You'll be able to send the file, but it won't be processed until after their maintenance period.

And I've never actually gotten that part to work. I just go to my feed directory and download the file, then I go to base.google.com and upload manually. Yes, this needs to be automated but at least I am getting the darned thing uploaded! It just hangs when I try to let the script upload to google.

I have received the following errors from Google base after my upload:

Bulk upload failed. No items are live. There are too many formatting errors in your file

Each product is listed as Invalid price type

How can I fix this?

[ctcentralinfo]

I am getting this error:

This attribute is no longer supported. Please use a supported attribute. - help

label 1

How can I fix this?

Please use a more recent version. You must be using v1.33 or earlier.

I download the latest version of Google base from the zen cart contribution section from this site.

Are you sure you're using 1.5.2 and all DB updates are in sync and your configuration setting is up today?

Using this command to initiate a cron job to run the google base feeder automatically (based on what my host needs command wise, and what is included as an example in the install.txt):

/usr/bin/php -q /home/mydirectory/public_html/googlefroogle.php?feed=yes&upload=yes

which seems to run fine, but getting an error saying the "No input file specified". Anyone know what this could be? The googlefroogle.php file is there and in the right place...

I removed the sql table related to Google base, reinstalled the sql database and re-uploaded all the files. About Is the file suppose to look like an xml layout despite the fact that I named the file cooltechcentral.txt? I am also getting the upload window collapsing then googlefroogle.php dowload or open window showing up after the first try. After the second try, I get a successful upload.

You are not using a current version. You must have downloaded the script using the link located at the bottom of the page instead of the top. You can make sure you have the latest version by using the version located on my website.

Contact your host for help with cron jobs.
