Froogle Merchant Center merged into GoogleBase

wickedklown:

why is it that this isnt feeding a file of all my products, it only loads like 1500 of the 4700....
Have You "Linked" products?

Hi, I have a question. I've installed this mod on a 1.2+ shop. I created the froogle.txt file and created an account with google/froogle. But when I upload a file it tells me to check back in an hour. When I do check back it said that it fails, but the reason it keeps giving is an internal error. Has this happened to anyone else? What else can i do?

V.1.2.2

1. Add check for Google Froogle settings.
2. Use ISO3 for countries

wickedklown:

another question.

Why are my products showing on base.google.com and not on froogle.google.com?

arnt they both connected? or not? should i upload a file to hegwig.google.com? instead of uploads.google.com?

please let me know.

Froogle is gone - morphed into Base. Upload to base.google.com (at least for me anyway).

Regarding products not showing up - if you have products priced by attributes they won't show up in the generated GoogleFroogle file.

In your experience, the first time you upload items to Googlebase, how long does it take to get them to show up on froogle? Its been over 24 hours and still nothing. Thanks.

Mine showed up within an hour when it finally worked. Right there in all their glory in Froogle, photos and all. Very exciting. But this was about my tenth attempt.

I started our wrong by thinking this was an Easy Populate thread on the froogle function in that mod.

Questions - comments:

Froogle Google mod latest link in this thread was installed per instructions but I can not use the admin upload function. It doesn't recognize my user name and password. So I log on to Google Base and use the file upload there, after transfering the txt file in the Feeder folder to my harddrive.

TWO COMMENTS:

1. The googlefroogle.php file is placed in the admin folder. Is that right? When I click tools > Google Froogle Feeder, I get a page that looks like the alt_nav.php at the top (the admin site map) with weird navigation at above the page. The functions at the bottom of the page regarding the froogle feeder work, however.

2. Did not see in instructions to set permissions on folder named Feed, but had to do that before anything would work.

I'm a little worried there are some unknown bugs here that may complicate other functions later.

Note that your ftp password for Froogle/Base may be different from your Google login password. You can reset your ftp password on Google Base site if needed.

I'm stumped. This is my first go at froogle and apparently I don't know what I'm doing. I've uploaded all of my items, here is a screenshot to prove it:

http://www.moissaniteco.com/froogle-results.gif

Here are a few of my items I can see if I click on the links in my google base admin:

http://www.google.com/base/a/1317959/D12381555628926820053
http://www.google.com/base/a/1317959/D12654888771658021660

If you click All Items by MoissaniteCo.com the page goes blank.

And I cannot find any of them in froogle. Am I, by chance, uploading to the wrong to something else that is not froogle?

Its been over 48 hours since I uploaded.

Anyways, any advice from the more experienced froogle users would be appreciated. Thanks

Ok, nevermind. Google just wanted to take its sweet time putting my stuff up. Its working now. Thanks!

I installed this contrib and when I run the click here to create/update your feed I get this error.

Warning: main(includes/languages/english/googlefroogle.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/shopezsc/public_html/catalog/googlefroogle.php on line 17

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks.

Set permissons on file and folder to 777 and make sure those files are actually uploaded.

I tried to grab this file from here and it no longer exists at this location.....> Woodymon:

The updated Google Froogle mod by Andrew (v 1.2.1 updated July 29, 2006) can be found at
http://zen-cart.spb.ru/freedownload.php?file=zc-contribution/GoogleFroogle.zip

Nevermind, it's there now.....

Sorry to double post - I installed this successfully on v1.2, but the option in admin->tools->Google Froogle Feeder. I can run it manually, which works fine. Could it be because I had the old Froogle generator in this category? If so, what's the best way to get rid of it?

V.1.2.3 11.08.2006 1:38

1. Add tax to price.

V.1.2.4 14.08.2006 20:15

1. Fixed priced_by_attribute.
2. Skip is_call and is_free products.

Kelvyn/a_berezin, do you have a link to the updated GoogleBase generator? Well, the link is posted above by Woodyman. Sorry for the post :)

I tried to upgrade to this version and I am encountering some difficulty. When I backtrack to the previous version everything works fine again. I really want to upgrade to deal with the Priced By Attibute issue ;-) Thank you so much for addressing that problem.

Anyway, when I upgrade and click on the link to create my product feed I get the pop up window but instead of reporting the progress it churns for a little while and then I get a message from Firefox -

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

      cookies.

Checking my logfiles I don't see any errors. I just get several lines that say the following -
208.196.76.36 - - [14/Aug/2006:17:17:48 -0400] "GET

I'm stumped at the moment. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Check your currencies and languagies setup.

Check your currencies and languagies setup.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked and everything is fine .. tried changing settings to see if it made a difference and nothing.

I tried running it from the command line and it runs and completes but froogle.txt only contains the column headings so I can only assume I'm messing something up somewhere. I can switch back to the previous version and it works fine except it doesn't pick up the items priced by attributes.

Will keep bashing away at it ;-)

Thanks again!
