Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[milobloom]

For trying to shoot my problem....

File uploaded.
Temporary filename: /tmp/phpTmwADx
User filename: Handbag.txt
Size: 14807

I had "temp" as the folder not tmp.
So I created a folder named "/tmp"

But that did not work.

Then I am thinking. Perhaps if I change that part to go to "temp" that might solve it. Where would I make that edit?

folder for easy populate 1.2.5.4 should be/temp
and must have owner permissions to read/write/execute
Your previous post states

I am trying out the Easy Populate taken from OS

Are you using EasyPopulate version 1.2.5.4?

Easy Populate Advance2.76d-mod3a Zen-Cart 1.3.x - Default Language English(1)

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=460

I set temp/ to 777
I also changed all the items in that folder to 777 as if that would do anything.
I made a folder named tmp/ and chmod it to 777
(nothing ever goes into there)

I also tried uploading the file to the temp directory. EP saw that it was there.
But when I processed the file it gave me the same thing. No errors. Looked like it went in perfectly, yet the product was nowhere to be found.

I tried downloading all the products to the temp folder.
To try to download the products and move them to my other site...
I would start fresh if I could get all my products in... (With Attributes means that much to me..)
But I get this error when I tried.

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in /public_html/admin/easypopulate.php on line 540

If I try downloading the complete file to my hard drive I get 75 listings and this error (Inside my file)

<b>Fatal error</b>: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in <b>public_html/admin/easypopulate.php</b> on line <b>558</b><br />

Milo,

To make this easier on yourself, be sure to completely remove all the old files you uploaded (manually verify these)... because of the way zencart works, an older non-compatible (or even newer) file will auto load.

Run the un-installer for EP. Do a search for uninstall to get exact instructions.

Once you've done that, reload 1.2.5.4 and install the patch. Open the sql patch with a plain text editor and paste this directly into the SQL patch window. Some systems seem to botch the file upload.

Then download your Full file ... this should work. If it isn't, reread the install document. I've done this dozens of times and when it doesn't work, it is nearly 100% user error... missing file, missing temp folder (from root mind you) or people not properly formating the text files.

-chaddro.

[milobloom]

Ok. Ill try that...

Lots of work to do now...

Did you get this mod working??

[milobloom]

Uninstall. Ok Ill try that first...

Once you've done that, reload 1.2.5.4 and install the patch. Open the sql patch with a plain text editor and paste this directly into the SQL patch window. Some systems seem to botch the file upload.

I am trying to load Easy Populate Advance2.76d-mod3a Zen-Cart 1.3.x
Because... It supports attributes.
I had that file working (And probably could once again...)
But that version does not support attributes.

If you rely heavy on Attributes... As we do... The thought of making this work would be very important.

[milobloom]

I think what I might be doing wrong is asking for support for separate mod then this thread is about...

I saw this Easy Populate in the downloads section and thought it was from langer...
I will start my questions in another thread...

Thanks for the help.

milobloom - Easy Populate 2.76d-mod3a is a new version, which seem to be buggy, unless you are good a php to de-bug it I would use v1.2.5.4.
I would think your issue is that not many people are presently using this version as EP 1.2.5.4 or EPA are the most popular as they are proven with very little bugs.
Try to contact the porter of this mod (2.76d-mod3a) is see if he is able to add light to your issues, he/she may be helpful.
