Google Base error...

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I successfully generated a google base file and uploaded it to google base. None of the items processed. I got an error message stating that google won't process items that have IP addresses included.

My questions are, why is Product cart including my IP address in the google base file, and how can I change that? 

thanks!

	Have a look at /includes/storeconstants.asp Sometimes one will use an IP number to run the store during the period when they are building it, then transfer DNS to the host. If you did that, and did not edit the above file, you could have the IP number in there.

	Hey Greg, thanks for the tip. I didn't actually build my site, so I have no idea. How would I edit the page you mentioned to get rid of the IP? Thanks! Lori

	FTP into the site. Inside the productcart folder (or whatever it is named in your site) is an includes folder. In there is a file called storeconstants.asp. Look at the last line of that page. If an IP is there, change it to your domain name and re-generate your navigation as well as your feed.

	That's why Providence made contract programmers who hire themselves out to make these magical things happen. If you get into trouble let me know.

	Huh, interesting because I checked, and it is actually set to my store's URL. I think maybe I didn't explain it well enough - the IP address only shows up in the URL's when I am logged into product cart, if that makes sense? Since I am generating the data feed inside of product cart, that's apparently why the IP is showing up in the URL's.

	Next possibility is how you are referencing your admin. Are you going to www.yourdomain.com/store/youradmin or are you referencing the admin via an IP address?

	OH! ok, so I tried going to it the way you mentioned above, and it does take me to the very first login page (the one with the agreement) but I always have a problem with this page when I've tried to access it in the last couple of months. It just endlessly spins and never loads, I always get a timeout. ( I have this problem with a LOT of pages within PC now, like if I want to update a content page, or something, it just spins and spins and times out) I have the 2nd login page bookmarked, so I always bypass this agreement page when I am logging in, but the URL's I normally log into to is the one with the IP in it I hope this makes sense. So if I can just somehow get past this agreement page and actually log in with the url you mentioned above, maybe I can generate a working data feed!
