Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

It does put your website into all of the links, otherwise how would Google know where to link to?

If you need to have this module installed for you, please PM me or visit the Numinix services page found in my forum signature.

Hi Numinix,
Thanks for the offer but I think I'm ok on the the installation.
The problem is that the mod. did not put my web add. into any of the links. That is why the 1st upload failed. It wasn't until I edited the .xml file GBF generated and added my web add. into all the links that I was able to get a successful upload.
I tried the install twice, double checked the local of all files and I used cut and paste with notepad++ to install the .sql patch. I did not use upload.

Thanks,Jim

Good Morning everyone.

I ran this excellent mod (1.6.11) with zen cart (1.3.7) yesterday and ran into a problem. Although it creates, displays and apparently uploads the feed it does not appear in Google Base (either in the public area or in my account). I assume I have got a configuration setting wrong and would really appreciate some advice.

After uploading, the mod reports the following:-

Google Base Feeder v.1.6.11 03.27.2008 00:05:59 started 2008/05/21 11:41:46
Feed file - /var/www/html//feed/domain_products.xml
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - Yes
Upload started...
First attempt (passive mode off): Uploaded Successfully
-r--r----- 1 ftp
root

Connected to: uploads.google.comLogin ok:Current Directory Is: /-r--r----- 1 ftp
root
331095 May 21 04:31 domain_products.xml

Upload ok!

Viewing the Google Base FTP content (last option on the /admin/Tools/Google Base Feeder page gives

Google Base FTP content:Connected to: uploads.google.com/total 0

Many thanks in anticipation of help

Hi.

I've done as mydanilo suggested and give Google plenty of time to accept my feed, but still no success. As I said before, I'm assuming I have got a setting wrong somewhere and would appreciate some advice.

Kind regards

I keep getting this error when I upload to google

Errors:
Error Bad data Line # 22150
We didn't understand some of the XML formatting in your file. You may be missing a tag or have a nesting or formatting error.

line 22150 looks like this - <g:mpn>ChameleonEvoGore-Tex&reg;XCR&reg;</g:mpn>

I've been searching the forum, and I think it has to do with the sanitizer function not working right, but I have no clue how to fix it
what am I missing?

Hi,

I've tried installing google base feeder. I've uploaded the files, pasted and ran the sql patch and put all of the things needed in admin>configuration

My screen looks like this in admin. Other than that I don't get errors or anything... just no feed.



Can someone help me? I'm using zc 1.3.7 and have installed base feeder 1.6.7. (it said it was compatible with zc 1.3.7)

Thanks in advance,

Juliet van Ree

I would try uninstalling, and reinstalling
(maybe try the latest version)

Mine is doing that too, It says the exact same thing, but It says I have nothing in my data feed. What Didi I do, and What do I do now?

you did not answer any of the questions?
is the data feed empty, or is the upload failing
