Google Base Feeder Support Thread [OLD]

Can this be used to upload to both GoogleBase United States and United Kingdom?

Thanks.

cubecart 1.3.8
google base feeder 1.6.8

When I 'create' the feed, I receive this msg:

Google Base Feeder v.1.6.8 02.08.2008 22:33:59 started 2008/11/12 15:36:03
Feed file - /home/msthang/public_html/zencart/feed/domain_products.xml
Processing: Feed - Yes, Upload - No
Google Base File Complete In 2.167900 Seconds 483 Records

Uploading fails. So when I attempt to view the feed, I receive the dreaded "this feed contains code errors"

http://www.conspicuouschick.com/zencart/feed/domain_products.xml

No, I do not have the Wordpress add-on.

I apologize if this has been addressed before, but this thread is HUGE, and I tried to search; however, very few people specify their subject line, and it just became terribly overwhelming.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there any reason why this add on would make my site not show?
https://www.annasattic.us doesn't load, but
https://www.annasattic.us/index.php loads.

Before I uninstall and start over, like to try any thing I can do.
TIA
Anna

Both load for me.

Btw, the design you've used is very hard to read, imo.

Question on Product Inclusion...

The products will be added to the Google Feeder if and only if there is a base price set. If it is priced by attributes it does not go to the lowest priced attribute to get the price. Is there a way to get this to obtain the lowest priced attribute? I will be happy to pay (depending on price) to have this accomplished.

Thanks,
Matt

I need this function as well, either the lowest priced or the default attribute would be great.

Thank You for reply.
It was something on hosts end.

Auction site attributes readme states:

ALSO CONTAINS UPC/ISBN ATTRIBUTES (REQUIRES UPC/ISBN MOD!!!)

Where can I download this mod?

Also how is design it hard to read?

I'm using IE6.

What browser do you use?
TIA

Are you sure this is the file you've registered with Google? domain_products.xml

Hi

Yes, this is the file I registered with google. I had uploaded the file about a week ago and that was ok.

So, I am just a bit stumped as what to do.

Thanks,

Phil

Not sure if this has been covered already, but there is a typo in the configuration table.

Show Feed Lanugage

Nothing major! :P

Try changing the setting for passive mode.

Hi

Can you tell me how to do that, I have looked in the config for googlefroogle but can't see anything.

Also, in config should the google base server be - uploads.google.com or hedwig.google.com?

Thanks,

Phil

Search through the configuration settings. It wil be referred to as PASV or Passive.

Hi

I changed the PASV to false and it uploaded ok, mind you it took about 4-5minutes to upload 90 products!

Thanks,

Phil

That would be the result of slow hosting

Hi

That's fine then. As long as it works ok.

Thanks for the support.

Phil

You're welcome :D

Hey all, wondering if anyone can help me with this issue, i have read lots on this but cant seem to get it to work. Here are the steps I do...

1.) Create Product Feed: Click [HERE] to create / update your products feed. And I get this message

Google Base Feeder v.1.7.0 09.019.2008 17:38:59 started 2008/11/18 17:28:30

Processing: Feed - Yes, Upload - No
Google Base File Complete In 55.354560 Seconds 8552 Records

2.) 2.) Then I go here..Upload Product Feed: Click [HERE] to upload products feed to Google Base.

.and get this message..

Google Base Feeder v.1.7.0 09.019.2008 17:38:59 started 2008/11/18 17:31:00
Feed file - /usr/home/jygoo191/public_html/shop/feed/froogle_products.xml
Processing: Feed - No, Upload - Yes

Upload ok!

..
3.) Then I go over to Google/Froogle, and I created , "before I did step 1 and 2, an account with google and named my file froogle_products.xml

Here are my settings in google account I set up with them

Filename (cannot be edited): froogle_products.xml
Target country: United States
Feed format: googlebase
File format: XML

......When I go there to see if it worked, It says it failed, and I get this error message..

( Failed
Data feed upload failed. No items are live. )

Error Bad data Line #

So , my settings in config > google base config are

Google Base FTP Password (my google ftp password)

Google Base PASV false

, I am not editing any files in Excel, all I do is upload my products to the website via easy populate, then I do steps 1 and 2 noted above in this thread...

The file that googlebase is creating I think in Zen cart was saved in my (Control Panel) /public_html/shop/feed

and its called froogle_products.xml , and that is what is trying to be downloaded via google base feeder from my zen cart shop add on I am assuming based on my premises from above.....

So does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong...?

O yea, my catalog contains about 19,000 products.
