I should make clear that I only have this issue on a site that has been upgraded with each new ZC release. I don't have this issue with new ZC installations.

Even though the browser times out, easypopulate does what it's supposed to do, although of course, you don't get any notification of what it just did, but it works.
I thought that might be the case here since my installation was 10 months old and the EP worked OK until I upgraded it to 3.7.1 but now I am not sure. I did a fresh install and the EP worked great until I uploaded the EP data from the old install to the new install. The full download did upload and it did show a few delimiter errors generated on line 241 of the functions php (something about an explode of excel_$date). After upload was complete and it showed all 39+ K lines, I tried to upload a one line file and it timed out again. Same thing as before, I get no confirmation on that file. It may be because my db is 150+ categories and almost 40k products (it's a clone of my OSC site) but I don't quite understand why everything works fine on OSC but not on Zen. Especially since the original huge file did give a confirmation (and the errors generated) Leads me to think that maybe a parameter is cockney on the later or is getting reset after the initial use. Don't want to knit-pick, but knowing the if's and what's that EP did or didn't do, could be helpful.
