Hello All,

I just Installed the google base feeder 1.7.1a with Zen cart 1.3.8a. I installed every sql file that was in the SQL updates directory, then Installed the update_1_7_1.sql file all with no problem. Then tried to install the googlefroogle.sql and get dupplicate error. The Admin->Configuration->Google Base Configuration exist and I set the ftp. The Admin->Tools>Google Base Feeder exist and I ran it, but the products were blank. Been reading for couple hours and have not found solution. Do I need to unistall? Please help!

The Duplicate error was:
1062 Duplicate entry 'GOOGLE_BASE_PASV' for key 2
in: (Then there was a long list)

Was the feed directory blank? If yes, you might need to set the write permissions for the feed directory.

Thank you for your reply. I just verified the feed directory is 777.When I select product feed this link opens: http://peaceful-planet.com/googlefro...?feed=fy_un_tp but it is just a blank page.

I take it you got this error while trying to copy and paste the SQL updates?? If so, the field that the script is trying to create was already there. I think it'd be safest for you to either A: Perform the uninstall as completely as you can or B: Recover to the backup that you made before you installed this module. Then Try the install again from the beginning.

Also hopefully Mr. Numinix has an ear open about this thread so I can pick his brain again... When I upload my feed file to Google Base, for some reason I get some extra fields in the product details. I view my active items, click edit next to one of them, and under the Details section, I have anywhere from 2 to 5 instances of a custom field titled "c_condition". I can click "click to remove" next to the item to get those extra detail fields to go away, but doing this for 450 items is no small task! Ha.

I don't see the "c_condition" field anywhere in the xml feed file that is generated by your script. Should I be looking to Google for the answer to this one?



And is there a way that I can modify the script to always enter "Automotive" for the product_type such as below? Im sure you know this already but currently it grabs the manufacturer category (i.e. Ford or Honda or GMC) from the top level parent folder.

<g:product_type><![CDATA[Automotive]]></g:product_type>

The feed directory is empty except the index file that I put in there. Is it possible that the google sitmap install that I installed a while back is casue issue? I ran all 13 updates in the sql updates directory, then ran the update_1_7_1.sql update that was in main directory. Then I had error when I tryied to run the googlefroogle.sql. Was this the correct procedure?

Thanks for any help I can get!
