Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

Yes that is right, but only the versions you need to update. If you have google_base version 1_6_15 installed you need to run all the updates beyond that update_1_6_17, update_1_7_1, update_1_7_2, update_1_7_3
You still do not have some updated. Your will have to look like mine if it is to be up to date.

Sometimes it is just faster to reinstall the database by running uninstall.sql and then re run the install.

Remember to save your Google Base FTP details if you use that method for upload.

this probably explains why all my fields are not being displayed..

I manually uploaded the feed and it took.

Thanks for any assistance.

hey guys, i have this mod version 1.7.1a installed, but it only grabs some of my products? it will create a file 6.3mb or so then stop. it's not timing out, and i've set my max products to infinite (0).

i have around 19k products, but it will only generate around 5-6k of them. it's also a different file size every time i run it?

anyone else have this problem?

Download Version: 1.7.3a from here and upgrade. Version: 1.7.3a comes with a debug. Go to your admin/configurations/google_base/debug and cut it on. It will show you any errors you have.

[makenoiz]

Just wanted to say that everything is actually working now outside of the debug errors. The cron is good the upload is good - just took it like 3 hours to process on the Base side!


One more question... does the cron tha was posted in the instructions create the feed too or just upload?

Thanks

Correction in my last post, it will do both for you. You will have to set up a cron job for each one. One to create the feed and one to upload it.

I upgraded and it seems to process a few more products, but still only about 25% of the products i have. I enabled the debug and received no errors, no time outs or anything. After about 37-40 seconds it just stops. I tried installing Numinix's old windows live search feeder but the same thing happens. It doesn't process all the products, and i receive no errors..?

Thanks numinix for the input, I have said this over and over AND PLEASE BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING.
Sometimes you will have to go to your database and manual remove them.
