Product detail pages won't load after importing with easy populate

Can anyone give me a hand here. I've been using EZ Populate to populate my database and for some reason all of a sudden my product detail pages won't load. my main menu works fine - the submenus work fine but when you want to look at a particular item I get the error page.

my website is www.tacticalsporting.com The product images are not loaded yet and the site is not live but you have access for the moment. Any help would be appreciated befoe i end up reinstalling the whole thing.

Thanks,
Jason

Your import seems to have skipped an important field ... your products don't have a valid products_type setting. The products_type field in your products table needs to have a value in it that matches a value in the product_types table.

Hi DrByte,

:frusty:Knockin my head against a brick wall here.
Could you please advise a little further, as i have been experiencing the same problem, are you saying to place v_products_type in a column in the spreadsheet?
Plus, if so, can these fields be empty, or do i have to place values against each product?

I found this a lot of help.

You need this field and you need to say which product type is applicable to each product (tip - it's usually "1"), otherwise the product_info page doesn't know which display routine to use.
