OT:
I imagine they are much more vulnerable to data corruption/loss?
...I don't think I'll ever feel sage keeping my irreplaceable data on an SSD...
meh - I thought it was a good idea to purchase these womans clothing domains as the contained very popular search terms - turns out eCommerce website are a bit more tricky than im used too.
Fumbling through different parsing components for Joomla is just cack.
I guess I'll have to manually populate my store manufactures, vendors and products (almost one hundred thousand products) and I might be able to get the stock and pricing info auto update myself, I just don't see how on earth it's possible to auto grab products from any CSV that has such poor product category structure, for example, virtuemart uses an integer to identify categories and is auto incremented as they are added, I needed to change it to VARCHAR as any attempt to import the CSV into the correct category would first need an interpreter to cross reference the old INT category ID with the content of the category field in the CSV - it's all like this and very messy.
The single most annoying thing about all of this is the fact that suppliers wont use or agree on standard category names & structure...it gets confusing - was three in the morn and I was like :insane:
If it works out I guess I'll pay someone to come in and rebuild/sort out some things...
help a php n00b <-_->
...anyone here have a moment to spare with a complete n00b?
I has a problem. I need to write a script that:
I has a problem. I need to write a script that:
- Gets csv from http
- extracts a number of fields and inserts into MySQL tables (field structure of web CSV does not match that of the MySQL table)
I found this - through insims we stop autotrololol
Feedgator takes RSS feeds and converts it into content and articles, the problem is that the component (feedgator) does not like to see XML language anywhere in the title or body of any RSS feed.
This is only happening with that one feed so screw it - i thought it was a problem on my end (although it would be nice to have a workaround in case it comes across this & in the future...)
na, afaik you just need to declare where php.exe is at the start of the batch file, php.exe itself would direct any errors to the set error/log folders
yes, thanks - It's getting to the 3rd last line of code ($controller->import('all');), and firefox threw out this error:
SimplePie error: XML error: XML_ERR_NAME_REQUIRED at line 376, column 64 for Auto Mechanic Dublin (http://www.beepbeep.ie/newsrss.php?section=Industry+News)
Reading around about this Simplepie error it seems to be something todo with the ampersand in feeds...feed validation for this feed confirms...
What's up with this '&', has anyone come across such errors and have worked around it???
E;
Ok, I understand the ampersand is XML spec and should not be used in RSS feeds,
Anyone know how I could tell the cron.php to replace '&' with 'and' in that code above???
Last edited by CSU1, .
would you mind giving me (complete n00b) an example please?
I have MS Visual Web Dev. installed...dunno why lol, I've no clue about coding
Anyone here good with IIS + Cronjobs?
...on the off chance anyone is clued up on the above.
[brief description of setup]
IIS7 running latest MySQL and versions of PHP, the site in question is running Jooomla 1.5
I'm using MS Task Scheduler to run this batch file (cron.bat):
and here is cron.feedgator.php:
Long story short, I have to use this component (feedgator) as it grabs RSS feeds in a specific way no others do. Other components run their cron's without fail, but feedgators just doesn't seem to do anything even when I manually run the cron.bat
Q. How do I "see" any error's created by cron.feedgator.php? I have tried manually navigating to \administrator\components\com_feedgator\cron.feedgator.php with PHP error reporting turned ON but it creates nothing, no errors... Anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong by glancing through it and how I could debug it???

...hardest hurdle to overcome is getting your head down into the books without distractions...
You've probably gotten attached to certain commitments in your life by now and have certain things you like to do throughout the day from time to time with friends & familly, so once you get your head around morphing into a solitary being for a couple of months you will find it a whole lot smoother

I'm pretty sure two planes crashed into the World Trade Center Towers...countless died - that's what happened.
These discussions are dis-tasteful (check the smiley-face dust/rain pic above) - show some respect and leave it alone.
Please let these people rest in peace.
Stop bickering - I feel oddly disturbed about this kind of discussion and don't see the need why people feel the need to dissect the event, it's ignorant.
