Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[hbombza]

Can anyone please help me.

I have been looking around for help with the following error I received when trying to import a test.txt file.

Warning: fopen(/var/www/html/uploads/test.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/easypopulate/classes/eclipse/FileIterator.php on line 146

Warning File Import Failed! Primary index column p_products_id or c_categories_index_path missing from uploads file. Please consult the readme.html file for more information

The file was exported from Easy Populate and then I added 1 line and then uploaded the file and tried to import the file. The above error occurred. I tried to change the permissions on the files uploaded to see if that was a problem and the same error occurred. When I changed the permission on the file to "777" and tried, the same error occurred and the file then disappeared off the server.

Please can you assist with this problem.

Cheers

It is recommended that you delete this corrupted data using phpMyAdmin.

Is there a quick way (sql statement) to remove them???

[FONT=Arial]I've just installed easypopulate. Everything went smoothly - it was in my admin-tools, when I clicked on install this is the error message I get:

Server Date: 06/24/2008 00:34:44 Database Date: 06/24/2008 00:34:44
PHP Version: 4.4.8 (Zend: 1.3.0) PHP Safe Mode: Off
PHP File Uploads: On Max Size: 2M POST Max Size: 8M
Database Data Size: 3,473 kB Database Index Size: 1,978 kB


if it has something to do with the database data size... i think my host has a limit of like 2 mb or something.... is there anyway to get around this if thats the case without contacting my host.... like uploading / copy pasting somewhere in phpmyadmin?

It appears that the MySql does not reside on your store hosting server, rather than on an external server is why is says only 2mb Max Size. Local host would usually be 4mb. Did you try splitting the upload EP?

All else, go to phpmyadmin and dump the entire database of products and go back to EP and split the files. Backup prior and use the store manager to reset and optimize the database.

I have a bookstore with lots of attributes like binding, version, closure, red letter, etc.

I loaded Easy Populate did the config and everything went fine. I also took my access file with three products and changed to txt file and changed the header names with v_products_model format. I made sure to follow format even down to EOREOR at the end of each line. I did the load from my admin area and bottom said everything went fine with no errors. But, no products showed up.

Besides no products showing up - my other concern is additional attributes. I have so many attributes that are listed on my original file. I had to delete them to get the sample ones to work. Is there anyway to follow the file format for txt file with new names that fit my attributes, so they can be loaded? Or should I be using something else instead of Easy Populate?

Thanks,

i spoke to my hosting, they changed my limit and even regardless of my increased limit.. they say the file was small enough to be uploaded.. so thats not the issue

Hello everyone!

I managed to get Easy Populate installed without a hitch. I uploaded my set of products, but when I did so I recieved this error:

Warning: explode() [function.explode]: Empty delimiter in /home2/weargcom/public_html/smithwesson/elocin/includes/functions/extra_functions/easypopulate_functions.php on line 241

Warning: explode() [function.explode]: Empty delimiter in /home2/weargcom/public_html/smithwesson/elocin/includes/functions/extra_functions/easypopulate_functions.php on line 241

Additionally, I received this error in the output:

No model field in record. This line was not imported | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Upload Complete

The weird thing is, all products seem to have uploaded just fine. I have to make some minor tweaks, but everything seems to be working...

What does this mean?

I've re-ftp my files and tried again and I'm still getting the same errors:

Help!

Any ideas...

I am not a developer, so I can't cash in on this, but why, oh why doesn't someone take the initiative to build *something*, *anything* that will actually deal with editing attributes through a spreadsheet? I would likely pay some decent bucks to have this happen.

I installed ZenCart for several different clients - assuming that I'd be able to use EP to edit the hundreds (literally) of attributes in these stores and now it seems like there really isn't a tool to do this.

One client needs to up all their prices July 1. There is virtually no way (that I know of) to edit their attributes "offline" so that they can be uploaded and become effective on July 1 - or is there?

Any suggestions? Anyone?

Hi Janelle,

I do not use attributes but have played with them a little. If all of them are assigned within a store, and just need updating, then the option to download Model with Attributes in EP should get what you need. The one that I played with had three attributes and the final total was priced via the attributes chosen. It is a little cryptic but I figured it out after a couple of attempts. Depending on how the values were originally assigned, an incremental dollar amount may be needed, instead of the actual price.

Regards,
Dennis
