I hope that someone can help me with this error message. I just installed the Froogle feeder and got this error message - or at least I assume it is an error:

: SQL error Unknown column 'p.manufacturers_id' in 'on clause'| sql = SELECT concat( 'http://www.knotnbauble.com/index.php?main_page=',pt.type_handler,'_info&currency=USD&products_id=' ,p.products_id) AS product_url, p.products_model AS prodModel, p.products_weight, p.products_type, m.manufacturers_name AS mfgName, m.manufacturers_id, p.products_id AS id, pd.products_name AS name, pd.products_description AS description, p.products_status AS prodStatus, FORMAT( IFNULL(s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price),2) AS price, p.products_image AS image_url, pc.categories_id AS prodCatID, c.parent_id AS catParentID, cd.categories_name AS catName FROM zen_categories c, zen_categories_description cd, zen_products p, zen_products_description pd, zen_products_to_categories pc left join zen_manufacturers m on ( m.manufacturers_id = p.manufacturers_id ) left join zen_specials s on ( s.products_id = p.products_id AND ( (s.expires_date > CURRENT_DATE) OR (s.expires_date = 0) ) ) left join zen_product_types pt on p.products_type = pt.type_id WHERE p.products_price > 0 AND p.products_id=pd.products_id AND p.products_id=pc.products_id AND pc.categories_id=c.categories_id AND c.categories_id=cd.categories_id ORDER BY p.products_id ASC

I did change the "Manufacturer" name in the appropriate file so that it would show as "Artisan" on the main page but I don't know if that is why this error occured as I see there is a bunch of other stuff there that I can't even begin to understand.

Is there someone out there that does?
Thanks!

*In addition:
I did try to change the 'p.manufacturers_id' to 'p.artisans_id' in the froogle.php file just to see if it made a difference and it just gave me the same error only with 'p.artisans_id' as the error.

Are you using MYSQL 5?

I am using v 1.6.10 on v 1.3.7.1

1.6.10c

Numinix,

If that response was for me, I'm thinking it is version 5, I host with BlueHost and the information I obtained from the database page for this specific database is:

Server version: 5.0.45-community-log
Protocol version: 10
Server: Localhost via UNIX socket

5.0.45-community-log
version comment MySQL Community Edition (GPL)
version compile machine x86_64
version compile os unknown-linux-gnu
wait timeout 60

Now if that isn't what you need, please give me a hint at where to find the version of MySQL would be located.

Thanks.
Oh and if the response was not for me, please disregard this response.

In ADMIN->SERVER VERSION you can see everything nicely laid out.

Anyways, seems to be bugs with MYSQL5.

The ratings on google are to do with store's being rated through a rating service. You'll have to search Google to find out which services are accepted.

Yes, mine is a version 5 - so does that mean this will be something I will be unable to use unless my host upgrades? Or does someone know how to work around this issue?
