Guest Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Whenever I tried to upload my easy Populate database file to my site, It would get to the first product and give me this error: 24small westwind black.jpg... ERROR! - Too many characters in the model number. 12 is the maximum on a standard OSC install. Your maximum product_model length is set to 15 You can either shorten your model numbers or increase the size of the field in the database. I have all my product model numbers blank, so I am assuming that it is looking at the image file size. If I changes the SQL table, nothing helped, what I had to do was change the SQL table from 12 to 40 (or whatever size you need) and change the variable in easypopulate.php in the admin directory. As long as those matched and were long enough, everything started uploading fine, hopefully this will help some of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥ecartz Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I have all my product model numbers blankEasy Populate uses the products_model field to tell the difference between products. If you leave it blank, it reads something else as the products_model. This produces odd effects. You should always assign unique products_model values when using Easy Populate. Hth, Matt Quote Always back up before making changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
