I looked in the table and the product I put in with admin have a "master_categories_id" and the products i put in with easypopulate they dont have this id, every product from easy populate have master_categories_id 0

1.2.5.4 is the best stable version from what I've found.

If your feeling brave (but beware), and want free:

Hi everyone!

I installed Easy Populate, everything went smoothly. I downloaded the template and opened it in excel, added some test products and saved as Tabbed Delimited Txt file.
I uploaded it to the /temp directory then from within admin-tools-easy populate I put the path to the file in the temp directory hit "insert into db".

I got a message saying
Upload Results
Filename: testuplist.txt

Upload Complete

But when I went into my store no new products were showing.
I thought to do a little test so I put any file name (that doesnt exist) and hit "insert into db" and STILL and said upload complete, this tells me its not really picking up anything from the temp directory but it does claim to, Im so confused.

Any thoughts to point me in the right direction please?

What am I doing wrong?

Which EZ version are you running? Also it is always best to install and download a copy of your inventory and then duplicate the field entries so errors are less common.

Depends on the setup of your inventory but often only one EOREOR would normally follow I'd think.

Hi thanks for replying ive been reading all the posts in this thread for HOURS!!! Im upto page 55 of 312

im using zen cart 1.3.9.f and easyPopulate 1.2.5.4

The 2 EOREOR are because 1 is the title at the top and the next one relates to the product.

The install went totally smooth, I generated a csv file from my current database and deleted most products just left one and added another for testing. So im using the same format that was generated by EP directly.

Its uploading my files from /temp successfully, I never get any errors with EP but still no products show, ever!!
Any more ideas??

Yes Ive got the temp folder on permission 777 everything is error free and still i get nothing imported from EP... Im reading thru all the posts up to page 100 now... I feel like shooting myself

aozhaver,
Have you read the wiki article on easy populate?

[aozhaver]

Hi Kobra or anyone that can help...

I read that wiki document top to bottom I made sure everything was saved correctly, I uploaded it to temp then ran the insert to db and................... NOTHING!! ZERO!! it says upload successful and all of that but no products appear anywhere in admin or my website.

Im totally desperate for any help!
